Abstract

Overview

The interaction between biological systems and environmental electric or magnetic fields has been a focal point of research for several decades. Despite numerous studies, findings remain inconsistent, primarily due to the complex nature of biological entities and varied experimental protocols.

Findings

• This research specifically focuses on pancreatic β cells, crucial for the regulation of blood glucose.
• A modeling approach was employed to establish the natural frequency spectrum of the β cell system, identifying key parameters such as intensity and frequency of the excitation that significantly influence system response.
• The study reveals two separate frequency bands that are significant for the natural frequency of β cells: an extremely low (near zero) and a medium band (100-750 kHz).

Conclusion

The discerned frequencies are pivotal for optimizing electromagnetic excitation protocols in research and therapeutic applications involving β cells. Supporting experimental studies corroborate these findings, highlighting the potential risks of EMF exposure on biological systems.
