title: [The hemathological reactions in rats after partial screening from natural electromagnetic fields].
abstract: The influence of partial screening of EMF on the composition of white blood cells was studied in the experiments on rats. Two kinds of copper rings were used in these experiments: individual for each rat and common for the cage. It was shown that inside the ring the composition of blood cells was changed--in 3-5 hours the number of granulocytes increased and in 24 hours it restored to the initial level. The effect was more expressive in the experiments using individual rings. In control groups the experiment with plastic rings didn't reveal this effect. It was presumed that EMF prevented the decay of granulocytes. It leads to the increase of their guantity. It was revealed that there was a positive correlation between Ki-indexes of geomagnetic field (GMF) in 1-2 days before the experiments and the number of granulocytes in rats during 1995-2002. Ki-indexes reflect the degree of GMF disturbance. During magnetic storms the spreading of EMF in radio-frequency range changes. It was presumed that the effect of partial screening of EMF of rats and the activity of magnetic storms are similar in their influence on the composition of white blood cells of rats.
