Abstract
This book reviews the biological targets of electromagnetic exposure at the membrane and nuclear level. Electrical and electrochemical modelling of electromagnetically exposed cells are presented. Field effects on the interaction between ligands and their binding sites are studied and the polyelectrolyte theory and related experiments are presented. Field Force effects, and the biological effectiveness of pulsed or sinusoidal low-amplitude electromagnitic fields are demonstrated. Finally, attention is paid to field effects at the subcellular and cellular levels. EM-field induced force effects, frequency-dependent bilogical effects of low intensity microwaves and AC field effects of and by living cells are topics of discussion. Interaction forces between microscopic particles in an external electromagnetic field and cyclotron resonance in membrane transport are also examined.
