Thermostability of the erythrocytes of mice exposed to the action of a magnetic field.
The authors investigated the thermostability of the erythrocytes os strain CBA mice exposed to the action of a magnetic field formed by the poles of a rotating permanent magnet of 20 mT (200 GAUSS) induction. The erythrocytes of animals which spent 17 weeks in the magnetic field were significantly less heat resistance than those of the control animals. The effect on animals kept in the magnetic field during embryoyenesis and infancy and then left 3 months outside it was even more pronounced.
