  • Title: The action of magnetic field on the sodium transport across the cell membrane.
    Author: Gualtierotti T, Capraro V.
    Journal: Life Sci Space Res; 1964; 2():311-6. PubMed ID: 11881652.
    Abstract:
    In the frog skin Na+ transport has been studied using 24Na+ and the short circuit technique, with or without a 650 gauss steady magnetic field. The magnetic field reduced the influx of sodium by 10-30%. In short circuit experiments the current appeared to be altered within 1 second of increasing the field. Such effect seems to be due to a block in active transport of sodium since the addition of 3 mM ouabain to the inside solution prevented the change.
