| pubmed-article:10025649 | pubmed:abstractText | In the present study micronucleus induction and cell proliferation in human peripheral blood lymphocytes cultured in vitro and exposed to 50 Hz sinusoidal magnetic fields for 72 h at different intensities (1.0, 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, and 0.05 mT rms) were investigated. The results obtained from 42 healthy donors aged between 26 and 54 y indicate that, for the field intensities tested, no genotoxic effects were found, as assessed by the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay. On the contrary, cell proliferation, evaluated by the cytokinesis-block proliferation index, was slightly affected by the field at the intensities tested. | lld:pubmed |
