Effect of weak magnetic fields on growth of cells in tissue culture.
Normal Chinese hamster V79 cells were grown in vitro for more than one year in a magnetic field of 10(-7) tesla to test recently hypothesized effects of weak magnetic fields on biological systems. No significant difference was observed between growth rate in such fields and that in the ambient geomagnetic field.
