title: Study of the effects on DNA of electromagnetic fields using clamped homogeneous electric field gel electrophoresis.
abstract: A clamped homogeneous electric field (CHEF) electrophoresis allowing the separation of DNA molecules in the range of 200 to 3000 kb in size was used to study the biological effects of electric and magnetic fields (EMFs). The results obtained did not show any detectable genomic damage on Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
