[Effect of electromagnetic field [3mT frequency] on heart ulatrastructure in mice]

ABSTRACT

Background and aim: Due to the conditions provided by the modern life, the human being is exposed to electromagnetic field [EMF]. Appliance such as microwave oven, mobile phone, computer and power producing systems which have an extensive role in human life are the source of EMF. Epidemiological and experimental studies have shown the adverse effect of EMF on biological systems. Previous works, using light microscopes have shown that EMF could produce morphological changes in cardiovascular system. However, there are few studies regarding ultrastructural effect of EMF on living tissues. The aim of the present study was to investigate ultrastructural changes of cardiovascular system in EMF-exposed rats
