Abstract
In a previous work a decrease in cholesterol and triglyceride plasma l evels was observed in rats 24 hours after their exposure to a 12 Hz 6 mT pulsed magnetic field (PMF). This time, a study of intensity effect s of a 12 Hz PMF for a sixty-minute exposure and of length of exposure for a 12 Hz 6 mT PMF took place. Non-linear effect-dose relationships were observed for the PMF intensity as well as for the length of expo sure used. The highest decreases in cholesterol and triglyceride level s were obtained after to a sixty-minute exposure with 1.5 mT and 12 mT .
