[The progeny of male rats subjected to chronic exposure to a permanent magnetic field].

Offspring of male Wistar rats, exposed to continuous magnetic field of 0.5 T1 (3 hours daily during 60 days), did not have significant differences from the control according to such parameters as sex distribution, mortality rates, body mass dynamics, terms of ears coming off, eruption of teeth, onset of hearing and eyes opening. There was a tendency to the reduction of static physical efficiency in holding to the horizontal bar. Increased activity of test animals 30 days old in "the open field" and CNS excitability elevation according to reactions to a sound stress were revealed.
