Description | 50 Hz magnetic fields effects on Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) viability were studied by colony forming units (CFU) counting. We found a 15% decrease of CFU number after magnetic field exposure (B=7.1mT,f=50Hz,t=24min) compared to the control samples. These results are in good agreement with our previous work on the other bacterial strains. |
