Estimation of biological effects of electric and magnetic fields

Last updated on 11 October 2013 3:34

Mutagenicity of electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) and their effect on gene expression profiles were examined using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Exposure to a 5 T static EMF resulted in a slight increase in gene conversion frequency while exposure to 0.5, 1 T static and up to 40 mT, 50 Hz EMFs...
