Abstract

We evaluated humoral and cellular functions of the immune system of Swiss‐Webster mice exposed to 60‐Hz electric fields at 100 kV/m. No significant differences were observed in primary antibody response to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (precipitating antibody levels) between exposed (30 or 60 days) and control mice, nor were there significant changes in mitogen‐stimulation response of spleen cells from mice similarly exposed for 90 or 150 days when compared to sham‐exposed animals.

The snouts of rats were placed in a 60-Hz electric field at an unperturbed field strength of 50 kV/m. A count of the number of vibrissae that moved in the field was made on a series of rats over a number of days where the laboratory humidity varied from 25% to 48%. The number observed to vibrate fe

Ramirez et a1 (1983) reported reduced egg laying by Drosophilu rnelunoguster and reduced survival of those eggs to adulthood when adult flies were exposed to magnetic fields. In a similar study, no effects from exposures of Drosophilu to 1-mT, 60-Hz magnetic fields were found.
