It has been proposed that chronic exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (MF) in occupational environments could represent a risk factor for a number of disorders. Medical and technical workers in hospitals have been reported to be exposed to relatively strong ELF fields. The pres

## Abstract To evaluate the effects of extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELFMF) on β‐cell survival and function, we cultured a hamster‐derived insulin‐secreting cell line (HIT‐T15), which exhibits responsiveness to glucose in a semi‐physiological range, under exposure to sham and ELFMF condit
We describe the design, construction details, and performance characteristics of an exposure system designed to provide very well controlled extremely-low-frequency magnetic field exposures of in vitro samples. This system uses Helmholtz coils placed inside temperature-controlled m-metal chambers to
