This animal and in vitro study evaluated electromagnetic fields (EMF) treatment combined with a 3D-printed PLA/HA scaffold seeded with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) for cranial defect repair. The authors report that EMF enhanced BMSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation and was partly…

This multi-generation animal study exposed worms continuously to 50 Hz, 3 mT extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields and assessed outcomes in the 15th generation. The study reports increased body length, higher ATP content and ATP synthase activity, and upregulated ATP-related gene expression in exposed worms.…

This study evaluated extremely low, time-varying EMF “magneto-priming” to optimize germination in foxtail millet seeds using a central composite design and response surface methodology. The authors report optimal germination at 10 Hz, 30,007 nT, and 30 minutes, with improvements in germination percentage and multiple…

This in vitro study fabricated PCL nanofibrous scaffolds containing cobalt-zinc ferrite nanoparticles and evaluated physicochemical/mechanical properties and cell-related outcomes. The abstract reports improved hydrophilicity, biodegradation, and stress at break with CZF-NP incorporation, and improved L929 cell…

This animal study evaluated whether low-frequency EMF exposure affects bioengineered hair follicle generation in nude mice injected with a mixture of epidermal stem cells and dermal papilla cells. Histology (H&E) at 7 or 14 days suggested more hair follicle eruption and higher density of hair follicle-like structures…

This exposure assessment measured RF-EMF levels in 21 state hospitals in Samsun Province, Turkey using short-term, long-term, and band-selective approaches across 100 kHz–3 GHz (total) and 27 MHz–3 GHz (band-selective). The study reports that the ICTA 3 V/m limit was exceeded in at least some hospital measurements,…

This study evaluated whether adding extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) exposure to a rehabilitation program affects apoptosis-related gene expression in post-stroke patients. Forty-eight patients (3–4 weeks post-incident) were divided into ELF-EMF and non-ELF-EMF groups, with the ELF-EMF group…

This in vitro study used spectroscopic and conductometry methods to examine binding between human hemoglobin and an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory peptide, with and without electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. The authors report that EMF changed the Hb–ACEIP interaction and that binding was associated with…

This in vitro study tested whether 50 Hz extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (0.5 or 1 mT) affect human dental pulp stem cell survival and proliferation. Using MTT and DAPI assays after 7 days of exposure (20 or 40 min/day), all exposed groups reportedly showed higher viability/proliferation than controls.…

This in vitro study evaluated whether extremely low-frequency EMF (50 Hz,

This experimental study evaluated electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment as a chemical-free approach to mitigate biofouling in reclaimed water distribution systems. The authors report that EMFs altered biofilm bacterial communities, reduced diversity, disrupted co-occurrence network structure, and inhibited biofilm…

This in vitro study developed carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC)-grafted polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofiber scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. It reports mineralization and osteonectin expression in adipose mesenchymal stem cells cultured on the scaffolds, suggesting osteoinductive properties of the grafted CMC. The…

This in vitro study exposed human dermal papilla cells to 70 Hz extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields at 5–100 G for four days. The abstract reports increased expression of several anagen-related molecules and increased proliferation, with 10 G described as the most potent condition. It also reports…

This in vitro study reports that a single pulsed electromagnetic field (0.2 Hz) increased expression of tenogenic genes and reduced expression of a matrix-degradation/inflammatory gene (Mmp1) in tendon cells. After 5 days of exposure (3 min/day), collagen type I and total collagen synthesis protein levels were…
