[Effect of strong, infralow-frequency magnetic fields on bone marrow cell division]
Abstract
The effect of an infralow frequency magnetic field of 3-127 kOe applied for 1 hr on mitotic activity, frequency of chromosomal aberrations and number of bone marrow cells of mice was studed. The exposure of mice to fields of 3 and 8 kOe stimulated and to fields of 54 and 127 kOe inhibited mitotic activity. No increase in the frequency of aberrant mitoses in bone marrow cells was noted. The changes in the cell number were small (no more than 20%) and readily reversible.
