Effects of static magnetic field on some pathogenic microorganisms.
A high power superconductive magnetostatic system MAGNEX was used by the authors for two microbial strains Escherichia Coli and Staphylococcus Aureus, the magnetic induction values were 0.5-4 T and the exposure time was 30-120 minutes. In this paper morphological traits, standard biochemical tests, sensitivity and effects influence of some chosen sorts of antibiotics are considered and evaluated here. All the above given criteria and facts were analysed and the authors have come to the conclusion that magnetic DC field has no significant influence on the growth, the biochemical activity as well as on the antibiotics effects on the strains examined.
