This in vitro study exposed HCT116 colorectal carcinoma cells to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 0.4 or 0.8 mT for 9 or 18 hours under continuous or discontinuous conditions. The authors report significant changes in miR-21, miR-141, miR-135, and miR-138 expression and increased apoptosis and necrosis measured by flow cytometry.…

This in vitro study examines a spinning oscillating magnetic field (sOMF) generated by an Oncomagnetic device and reports selective toxicity in glioma cancer cells. The abstract attributes effects to ROS-dependent inhibition of mitochondrial complex I, with downstream oxidative stress, DNA damage, cell-cycle arrest,…

This animal proof-of-concept study describes an engineered nanoparticle–cell interface (EMPOWER) enabling wireless regulation of transgene expression using a 1-kHz magnetic field. Chitosan-coated multiferroic nanoparticles reportedly generate intracellular ROS that activates KEAP1/NRF2 biosensors connected to…

This in vitro/ex vivo study tested whether different magnetic-field configurations alter ketoprofen properties and its transdermal delivery in porcine skin using Franz diffusion cells. The authors report no change in ketoprofen molecular structure, but subtle changes in crystal structure and physicochemical…

This laboratory study examined whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure affects wheat seed germination and early seedling development. Seeds exposed to 10 Hz, 7.5 mT EMF (5 h over 3 days) reportedly germinated earlier and showed higher biomass than untreated controls. The abstract also reports increased total…

This in vitro study examined how electromagnetic field (EMF) coupling parameters and field direction interact with 2D versus 3D culture environments to influence adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) proliferation and osteogenic/chondrogenic differentiation. The abstract reports different “optimal” magnetic flux densities…

This in vitro study exposed three ccRCC cell lines and a healthy kidney cell line (HEK293) to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 4.5 mT for 30 minutes daily over 5 days. The authors report exposure-associated changes in expression of several genes (names not fully visible in the abstract), with differences between primary…

This in vitro study tested whether a 50 Hz, 20 mT extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) enhances the cytotoxic effects of doxorubicin (DOX) in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The authors report that combining ELF-EMF with low-dose DOX reduced cell viability at lower DOX concentrations than DOX…

This study optimized cacao bean fermentation for the CCN 51 clone using native microbial species and applied magnetic fields, varying field density, exposure time, and inoculum concentration. It reports improved yield and bean quality versus a no-magnetic-field control at an optimized condition (5 mT, 22.5 min, 1.6%…

This animal study examined whether serotonergic signaling modifies analgesia associated with repeated ELF electromagnetic field exposure. Sixty-six male Wistar rats were exposed to 50 Hz, 5 mT for 2 hours/day over 15 days and then received 5-HT agonists or antagonists before analgesia testing. Agonists increased,…

This animal study tested whether 50 Hz EMF exposure and/or CoQ10 could protect against TMT-induced hippocampal injury in mature female mice. CoQ10 and CoQ10+EMF were associated with improved spatial memory and reduced histological markers of cell death, alongside increased antiapoptotic markers. EMF alone reportedly…

This in vitro study tested 50 Hz, 3 mT electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure and 808 nm low-level laser (LLL), alone and combined, on human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells from six donors. The authors report increased cell numbers after 7 days with EMF, greater increases with LLL, and the largest…

This in vitro study examined how different external magnetic field conditions affect isoniazid release from superparamagnetic iron oxide microspheres. The abstract reports that magnetic fields accelerated drug release, with faster release in acidic (pH 3) conditions and the fastest completion (2 hours) under an…

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 animal study exposed Sprague-Dawley rats to a 40 Hz, 7 mT time-variable magnetic field and measured ECG heart rate and plasma antioxidant capacity before and after exposure, including after 14 days. The authors report a significant decrease in heart rate after 14 days. Antioxidant defence findings were mixed,…
