This in vitro study examined effects of a 6 mT, 60 Hz uniform ELF electromagnetic field on HeLa cells and primary IMR-90 fibroblasts. Single or repetitive exposure did not induce DNA damage or change viability, but continuous exposure over 168 hours was reported to increase proliferation in both cell types in a…

This in-vitro study examined whether 50 Hz extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields affect proliferation in HeLa and CHO cell cultures. The abstract reports increased proliferation in exposed cells versus controls, with the largest reported increase under repetitive exposure at 2.49 mT (40 minutes every 12…

This study develops and tests a theoretical model of how HeLa cells aggregate when exposed to a uniform AC electric field. Model-derived aggregation times and predicted string-length growth rates matched numerical simulation, and experiments observed substantial clustering in the chamber. The work is framed as…

Jan 1, 2011
This engineering study describes a handheld microfluidic preconcentrator that uses dielectrophoresis generated by circular microelectrodes with a stepping electric field. Numerical simulations were used to illustrate the electric-field concept. In experiments, HeLa cells were reportedly preconcentrated within 160…

Jan 1, 2008
This chemistry/engineering study reports the synthesis and NMR/MRI-relevant characterization of a trinuclear Gd(III) chelate intended for high-field MRI contrast applications. Using 17O NMR and proton relaxivity across multiple fields and temperatures, the authors infer bishydration, quantify water exchange and…
