The Impact of Intraspecies Variability on Growth Rate and Cellular Metabolic Activity of Bacteria Exposed to Rotating Magnetic Field
Majority of research on the influence of magnetic fields on microorganisms has been carried out with the use of different species or different groups of microorganisms, but not with the use of different strains belonging to one species. The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of ro...

The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of rotating magnetic fields (RMF) of 5 and 50 Hz on the growth and cellular metabolic activity of eight species of bacteria: <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>, <i>Proteus mirabilis</i>, <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>, <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i>, <i>Enterobacter cloacae</i>, <i>Moraxella catarrhalis</i>, and <i>Bacillus cereus</i>.

It was found that, with regard to the exposed strain of the same species, the effect exerted by the RMF may be positive (i.e., manifests as the increase in the growth rate or/and cellular metabolic activity) or negative (i.e., manifests as a reduction of both aforementioned features) or none. Even when one clonal type of <i>S. aureus</i> was used, the results of RMF exposure also varied (although the degree of differentiation was lower than for strains representing different clones).
