Optimization of Physical and Biological Parameters for Studying Microorganism Responses to Low-Frequency Magnetic Fields
This study introduces an experimental platform for systematically investigating the effects of low-frequency magnetic fields on biological systems. It addresses key challenges such as environmental variability and reproducibility by ensuring precise temperature control, high magnetic field homogeneity, and a modular design. Validated using Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCY 21-4-99, the platform demonstrated minimal growth variations, confirming its reproducibility. It supports diverse biological studies and can be adapted for different electromagnetic field sources, providing a controlled environment for studying cellular effects and advancing research on low-frequency magnetic field mechanisms and applications.
