Plasmid DNA and low-frequency electromagnetic fields.
Physico-chemical and biological properties were studied in recombinant plasmids exposed to electric and magnetic fields (EMFs). The absence of slow-migrating DNA species and failure to identify induced DNA conformers, suggests that EMFs do not have any obvious genotoxic effect in any of the experimentally tested conditions.
