Abstract

It is shown that the amplicons of hepatitis virus DNA (hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus) are capable of inducing radiation after an exposure to electromagnetic fields in the frequency range from 3 to 30 Hz and the field strength, 24-40 A/m, registered by means of a chemiluminescence method. The most effect of the electromagnetic field on water solutions of the amplicons of hepatitis virus DNA occurs at the frequency of 9 Hz, the change in the hydration shell of DNA amplicons is observed. It is suggested that the change in the hydration shell of DNA amplicons exposed to the low-frequency electromagnetic field leads to restoration of hydrogen bonding, stitchings formation and DNA repair as a whole.

Main findings

Outcomes measured

Chemiluminescence-detected radiation from DNA amplicon water solutions after EMF exposure
Changes in DNA amplicon hydration shell (reported)

Limitations

In vitro water-solution experiment on viral DNA amplicons; no organism/clinical relevance assessed in abstract
No sample size, exposure duration, or detailed methods reported in abstract
Mechanistic interpretation (e.g., DNA repair, hydrogen bond restoration) is presented as a suggestion rather than demonstrated outcome
