Electromagnetic fields enhance chemically-induced hyperploidy in mammalian oocytes.
Epidemiological studies suggest that exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) in the environment may be associated with mutagenic changes, but the relation between EMF exposure and aneuploidy has not previously been studied. Environmental EMFs apparently lack the energy necessary to function as aneugens, but the possibility exists that EMFs could influence the incidence of aneuploidy synergist...
متن کاملP-33: Effect of Cell Phone Electromagnetic Fields on In vitro Maturation of Immature Mice Oocytes
Background: In recent years, the widespread use of microwave producing instruments specially mobile phones; result in growing concern regarding the possible effects associated with these waves on human health. Some studies highlight the possible health hazards of electromagnetic fields (EMF), while others contest the hypothesis of biological impact of EMF. The aim of this study was to evaluate ...
متن کاملThe effects of electromagnetic fields on fish
The objective of this paper is to survey the results of studies on the biological effects of electromagnetic fields on fish. First, the basic concepts of electromagnetism and electromagnetic spectrum and the importance of studying it in the case of fish are discussed. Then a summary of the results obtained on the effects of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) and radiofreq...
متن کاملBlast-induced electromagnetic fields in the brain from bone piezoelectricity.
In this paper, we show that bone piezoelectricity-a phenomenon in which bone polarizes electrically in response to an applied mechanical stress and produces a short-range electric field-may be a source of intense blast-induced electric fields in the brain, with magnitudes and timescales comparable to fields with known neurological effects. We compute the induced charge density in the skull from...
متن کاملElectromagnetic fields in offices.
With the increased use of electric and electronic equipment in our offices, our daily exposure to electromagnetic fields has become increasingly complex due to the great variety of the frequency content of the fields. Today focus has shifted from monitors as the dominating sources of electromagnetic fields to other electronic equipment, cabling, nearby substations, power lines and stray current...
