Parallel arrays of microtubules formed in electric and magnetic fields

Abstract
The influence of electric and magnetic fields on microtubule assembly in vitro was studied. Both types of field caused alignment of microtubules in parallel arrays, as demonstrated by electron micrographs. These findings suggest a possible role of microtubules in the biological effects of exogenous as well as endogenous fields.
