title: [Effect of electromagnetic fields on the living body. II. Changes in alanine and aspartate aminotransferase activities in subcellular fractions of the liver of guinea pigs].
abstract: The 50 Hz frequency electric field was applied to guinea pigs at different times of the day. The electric field effects upon the alanine and asparagine aminotransferase in supernatant, mitochondrial and nuclear fractions of guinea pig liver were observed. The highest increase in alanine aminotransferase activity was observed in the mitochondrial fraction, whereas asparagine transferase exhibited the highest activity increase in the supernatant fraction. Those changes may be indicative of adverse effects of electric field upon the liver cell metabolism.
