The aim of present work is to explore the influence of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (8.34 and 217 Hz) utilized in cell phones on habituation of the mollusk single neuron to intracellular stimuli. The isolated nervous system of the mollusk Helix Pomatia was used in the experiments. Helmholtz coils were used to expose brain ganglia to the low-frequency electromagnetic fields. Peak values of the extremely low-frequency fields were between 1 and 6 mT. Neuron electrophysiology was investigated using a standard microelectrode technique. Exposure of the neuron to the low-frequency electromagnetic fields caused dehabituation to intracellular stimulus. The effect was proportional to the magnetic induction peak value. The observed dehabituation occurs by degradation of the signal to noise ratio and by alteration of the neuron's normal function.

极低频磁场对蜗牛单个神经元的影响

目前工作的目的是探索手机中使用的极低频电磁场（8.34 和 217 Hz）对软体动物单神经元对细胞内刺激的习惯化的影响。实验中使用了软体动物 Helix Pomatia 的孤立神经系统。亥姆霍兹线圈用于将脑神经节暴露于低频电磁场。极低频场的峰值在 1 到 6 mT 之间。使用标准微电极技术研究神经元电生理学。神经元暴露于低频电磁场会导致对细胞内刺激的适应。该效果与磁感应峰值成正比。观察到的退化是由于信噪比的降低和神经元的改变而发生的
