Abstract:
The effect of different types of poles of magnets north/north (N/N), south/south (5/5), north/south (N/S) and south/north (S/N), magnet strength 2mT, for 3 and 6 days were monitored on the biochemical parameters of male Swiss Albino mice blood. Comparing to unexposed mice, significant variations in biochemical parameters (cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose and total protein) were noticed. Each type of poles have their own effect which totally different than the others. It is concluded that the effect seen with electromagnetic fields were due to magnetic filed in general. The effect of magnetic field on animals should be studied further in a step to evaluate them as a possible approach of managing patients with disorders related to glucose and lipids metabolism.
