The results of this study indicate that both intermittent and continuous magnetic field exposures affect various tissues in a distinct manner because of having different tissue antioxidant status and responses.
PMID: Neurochem Res. 2009 Feb ;34(2):238-43. Epub 2008 Jun 18. PMID: 18563561 Abstract Title: Effects of continuous and intermittent magnetic fields on oxidative parameters in vivo. Abstract: Continuous and intermittent 50 Hz, 1.5 mT magnetic field with the exposure period of 4 h/day for 4 days was used to investigate its possible effect on adult …
Exposures to extremely low frequency magnetic field induces serious oxidative stress in the hippocampus and striatum and impaired hippocampal-dependent spatial learning and striatum-dependent habit learning in rats.
PMID: PLoS One. 2012 ;7(5):e32196. Epub 2012 May 3. PMID: 22570685 Abstract Title: Deficits in water maze performance and oxidative stress in the hippocampus and striatum induced by extremely low frequency magnetic field exposure. Abstract: The exposures to extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) in our environment have dramatically increased. Epidemiological studies suggest that there …
