Title: Effects of a Strong Static Magnetic Field on Bacterium Shewanellaoneidensis: An Assessment by Using Whole Genome Microarray.

Journal Article · · Bioelectromagnetics
OSTI ID:903370

The effect of a strong static 14.1 T magnetic field on logphase cells of bacterial strain Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was evaluatedby using whole genome microarray of this bacterium. Although differenceswere not observed between the treatment and control by measuring theoptical density (OD), colony forming unit (CFU), as well as post-exposuregrowth of cells, transcriptional expression levels of 65 genes werealtered according to our microarray data. Among these genes, 21 wereupregulated while other 44were downregulated, compared withcontrol.
