Magnetic Stimulation on Human Blood Electromotive force analysis

Abstract

In this work a comparative theoretical analysis vs. experimental study on human blood under a magnetic field stimulation is presented. Twenty samples of leukoreduced human blood were stimulated with an alternant magnetic field using a Helmholtz coil system; this magnetic field induced an electromotive force in them. Theoretical calculations were performed for the induced electromotive force in a simple model of blood tissue under magnetic stimulation at frequencies: 50 Hz, 100 Hz, 800 Hz, and 1500 Hz. Experimental measurement was performed at the same frequencies for comparison purposes. Results show a high correlation between theoretical and experimental study, as well as effects of agglutination in the stimulated blood cells.
