The effect of an extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field on the fertility of adult male and female Swiss mice was investigated. Adult male and female mice were exposed to a 50 Hz sinusoidal magnetic field at approximately 25 microT (rms) for 90 days before they were mated with unexposed counterparts. There were no exposure related effects on the fertility of male or female mice. The number of implantation sites, viable fetuses, and the total number of resorptions were not significantly affected in females impregnated by males exposed to the 50 Hz magnetic field as compared with the control group. The number of implantation sites, viable fetuses and the total number of resorptions in exposed females were also not statistically different from the control group. There were no significant effects on the weights of the testes, seminal vesicles, preputial gland or body weights of males exposed to 50 Hz magnetic field. Furthermore, body and uterine weights were not affected in females exposed to 50 Hz field; however, ovarian weight was significantly increased in females exposed to the same field. These results suggest that exposure of male and female mice to low frequency magnetic field had no adverse effects on fertility and reproduction in mice.
研究了极低频（ELF）磁场对成年雄性和雌性瑞士小鼠生育能力的影响。成年雄性和雌性小鼠在与未暴露的同类小鼠交配前，暴露于约25微特斯拉（均方根值）的50赫兹正弦磁场中90天。对于雄性或雌性小鼠的生育能力，未发现与暴露相关的影响。与对照组相比，由暴露于50赫兹磁场的雄性小鼠使雌性小鼠受孕后，其着床部位数量、存活胎儿数量和吸收总数均未受到显著影响。暴露雌性小鼠的着床部位数量、存活胎儿数量和吸收总数与对照组相比也无统计学差异。暴露于50赫兹磁场的雄性小鼠的睾丸、精囊、包皮腺重量或体重均未受到显著影响。此外，暴露于50赫兹磁场的雌性小鼠的体重和子宫重量未受影响；然而，暴露于相同磁场的雌性小鼠的卵巢重量显著增加。这些结果表明，雄性和雌性小鼠暴露于低频磁场对小鼠的生育能力和繁殖没有不利影响。
