Abstract

Electromagnetic nanopulse exposure results in decreased fertility of C. elegans, a well studied, multicellar organism. Experiments indicate that this effect is unlikely to be due to heating. Instead, nanopulses interfere with fertilization or development by an as yet undetermined mechanism. Study of nanopulse exposure of C. elegans could help to understand more generally how living organisms interact with electromagnetic fields.

摘要

电磁纳米脉冲照射会导致秀丽隐杆线虫的繁殖力下降，秀丽隐杆线虫是一种经过充分研究的多细胞生物。实验表明，这种效应不太可能是由加热引起的。相反，纳米脉冲通过一种尚未确定的机制干扰受精或发育。对秀丽隐杆线虫进行纳米脉冲照射的研究有助于更全面地了解生物体与电磁场是如何相互作用的。
