Title Issues in electromagnetic field-biointeractions
 
Creator Behari, J
 
Description 352-360
Low level electromagnetic fields have been found to
produce a variety of biological effects, though the mechanism or such
interaction is still not completely understood. Cell membrane of the brain is a
critical structure perceiving the action or microwaves, which has received
greater attention in the recent past. The interactions of EMF with the living
cells are considered as stochastic resonance, cooperative effects,
non-equilibrium  hermodynamic process and
non-linear interactions. The living cells derive the energy from  noise and pumps it into the modes of
excitation at the driving frequency of an electromagnetic wave which give sufficient
amplification of the signal and increase the signal to noise ratio. The
non-linear mechanism plays their main role in the process of transmembrane
coupling of the signal to the cytoplasm. The criteria for safe exposure limits
of electromagnetic field to

 humans is also
discussed.
