Abstract

A survey article considers biological effects observed during the action extremly low frequency alternating and pulse magnetic fields from the sources of natural and artificial origin. The molecular and membrane mechanisms of interaction between magnetic fields and biological objects are analyzed. The results of experimental studies of the effects of alternating and pulse magnetic fields on the functional systems of the body: nervous (behavior and neurophysiology), cardiovascular, immune, endocrine system, etc. are presented.
