<u>Comparison of the Effect of Magnetic field on the different type of cells</u>

POSTER

Abstract



Abstract

Magnetic fields have a direct effect on the morphology of different types of bacteria and their growth. The human body incubates bacteria all over the place. Therefore, the magnetic field generating electronic devices can have a non-ignorable effect on human bacteria. This study needs to consider the effect of the magnetic field on human cells as well. Different magnetic fields have different effects on variable bacterial species. A weak magnetic field slows the growth rate of bacteria cells. However, the effect of the magnetic field on the eukaryotic cells is needed to be studied in detail. In addition, the bacteria in the human body may be affected differently in the human body environment. We look at all such effects and compare the results of the magnetic field effect on eukaryotic cells and on the prokaryotic cells.
