To explore possible biochemical mechanisms whereby electromagnetic fields of around 0.1 mT might affect immune cells or developing cancer cells, we studied intracellular calcium signaling in the model system Jurkat E6-1 human T-leukemia cells during and following exposure to a 60 Hz magnetic field.

The effect of 50 Hz magnetic fields on the cytosolic calcium oscillator in Jurkat E6.1 cells was investigated for field strengths within the range from 0 to 0.40 mT root mean square. The intracellular Ca 2ϩ concentration data were collected for single Jurkat cells that exhibited a sustained spiking
Low-frequency magnetic fields (MF) can increase the cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca'+]) in lymphocytes in the same manner as a physiological stimulus such as antibodies directed towards the CD3 complex. In this study, MF with various frequencies and flux densities were used, while [Ca'+], chang
## Abstract The influence of an alternating electromagnetic field (EMF) on early development of amphibian embryos was examined. When the embryos developed under the influence of a low‐frequency EMF (50 Hz, 5–30 mT), the rate of early development was accelerated. The effect of EMF was exerted prefer
