Frequency Dependent Alterations of S. Cerevisiae Proliferation Due to LF EMF Exposure

Anotace: The presented paper deals with low frequency electromagnetic field application on Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Experiments performed through wide frequency range have shown selective frequency dependent biological response, which could be successfully predicted by ion parametric resonance theory proposed by V. V. Lednev. Although observed results give satisfying answer to questions whether or not electromagnetic fields could affect cell cultures even at non-thermal levels, the research presented herein opens a multitude of questions about the exact physical mechanisms underlying the observed microorganism behavior, as the theory discussed within the scope of this article is still not completely unambiguous.
