Abstract

The viability of the microbes Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Bacillus circulans, Escherichia coli, Micrococcus luteus, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Salmonella enteritidis, Serratia marcescens, and Staphylococcus aureus was tested under static magnetic field exposure up to 24 h in either a homogeneous (159.2 ± 13.4 mT) or three types of inhomogeneous static magnetic fields: (i) peak‐to‐peak magnetic flux density 476.7 ± 0.1 mT with a lateral magnetic flux density gradient of 47.7 T/m, (ii) 12.0 ± 0.1 mT with 1.2 T/m, or (iii) 2.8 ± 0.1 mT with 0.3 T/m. Even the longest period of exposure failed to produce any effect in the growth of bacteriae that could be correlated with static magnetic field exposure.

Morphologic and morphometric sperm characteristics of mouse epididymal extracts from animals exposed to static magnetic fields were evaluated. For this purpose, animals were exposed for 35 days to a field of 0.7 T generated by a commercial permanent magnet for either 1 or 24 h per day. The values of
