Abstract

The radical pair mechanism is by now the most prominent candidate for a biologically relevant quantum effect of magnetic fields. Recently, N. Ikeya and J. R. Woodward demonstrated a magnetic field effect for sub-extremely low frequency (ELF) fields in the mT range by investigating the autofluorescence spectrum of flavin adenine dinucleotide in living HeLa cells. We apply a simple rate equation model to show numerically and analytically that magnetic field effects can be expected to exist in the whole ELF range.

通过简化速率方程模型对自由基对机制中的磁场效应进行数值和分析检验。

目前，自由基对机制是与生物相关的磁场量子效应的最主要候选机制。最近，N. Ikeya 和 J. R. Woodward 通过研究活体 HeLa 细胞中黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸的自发荧光光谱，证明了 mT 范围内的亚极低频（ELF）磁场效应。我们应用一个简单的速率方程模型，通过数值和分析表明，在整个 ELF 范围内都可能存在磁场效应。

期刊介绍： Bioelectromagnetics is published by Wiley-Liss, Inc., for the Bioelectromagnetics Society and is the official journal of the Bioelectromagnetics Society and the European Bioelectromagnetics Association. It is a peer-reviewed, internationally circulated scientific journal that specializes in reporting original data on biological effects and applications of electromagnetic fields that range in frequency from zero hertz (static fields) to the terahertz undulations and visible light. Both experimental and clinical data are of interest to the journal''s readers as are theoretical papers or reviews that offer novel insights into or criticism of contemporary concepts and theories of field-body interactions. The Bioelectromagnetics Society, which sponsors the journal, also welcomes experimental or clinical papers on the domains of sonic and ultrasonic radiation.
