Are 50/60 Hz magnetic fields carcinogenic
Magnetic fields are present everywhere in our environment. They are commonly measured in Tesla (T), the international unit for magnetic flux density. One Tesla is a very high magnetic field. Human exposures to such high fields occur only with magnetic resonance imaging machines (MRI machines which are used for medical imaging), which produce magnetic field levels up to a few Tesla. To describe ...
متن کاملECG changes in humans exposed to 50 Hz magnetic fields.
Possible health issues of ELF EMFs include cardiovascular effects since both electrocardiogram and heart-rate changes have been reported in the literature. A non-linear relationship between field strength and biological response has been reported in some studies. In this study, a total of 59 subjects, divided into three independent magnetic field strength groups, were compared. A calculated 12-...
متن کاملEffects of Electromagnetic Fields with Frequencies Lower Than 50 Hz and Intensity of 50 μT on Learning and Memory
Introduction: Biological effects of magnetic fields have been investigated by scientists for many years and a vast amount of research using different frequencies and intensities have been performed on humans and laboratory animals. The results of these studies, which have mostly been done by applying high frequencies, have shown that electromagnetic fields are effective on structure and functio...
متن کاملStatic and 50 Hz magnetic fields of 0.35 and 2.45 mT have no effect on the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The present work reports the growth effects induced by static and sinusoidal 50 Hz magnetic fields (MF) on the haploid yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae WS8105-1C. Magnetic fields were generated by a pair of Helmholtz coils (40 cm in diameter) with 154 turns of copper wire in each and separated 20 cm. The experiments were performed at 0.35 and 2.45 mT, and yeasts were exposed to MF during 2...
متن کاملBrain cancer and leukemia and exposure to power-frequency (50- to 60-Hz) electric and magnetic fields.
Concern about a possible association between cancer and electric and magnetic fields created by the generation and use of electricity first surfaced in response to the study of childhood cancer in Denver, Colorado, by Wertheimer and Leeper (1). Since then, nearly 90 epidemiologic studies of both occupational and environmental exposure have been published, and numerous reviews (e.g., references ...
