Title: Fibrinolytical processes in rabbits activated by the magnetic field. Author: Gorczyńska E. Journal: J Hyg Epidemiol Microbiol Immunol; 1988; 32(4):391-6. PubMed ID: 3221089. Abstract: Rabbits were exposed to a constant magnetic field of 0.005 T, 0.1 T and 0.3 T induction for one hour per day each day for a period of four weeks. It was found that the magnetic field increases the rate of fibrinolytical processes. A decrease in fibrinogen concentration, an increase in the level of fibrinogen degradation products and a considerably shorter time of fibrinolysis in plasma were all noted. The magnitude of these processes was proportional to duration of exposure to the magnetic field in action. These date confirms the similar effect observed in other mammalians (guinea pigs, rats). Thus, the application of a static magnetic field of intensity as low as 0.005 T to increase a fibrinolytical processes in the thrombotic therapy seems to be justified.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
