TI  - Toxicity bioassay in Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to 20 kHz triangular magnetic 
      field for 90 days.
PG  - 105-11
AB  - Sprague-Dawley rats (10 each of male and female per group for sham and magnetic 
      field exposed) were exposed in a carrousel irradiator to 20 kHz intermediate 
      frequency (IF) magnetic field at 6.25 microT rms for 8 h/day, 5 days/week for 90 
      days. Urine analysis (pH, serum glucose, protein, ketone bodies, RBC, WBC, 
      bilirubin, urobilinogen, and specific gravity), blood analysis [WBC, RBC, 
      hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular 
      hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), thrombocyte 
      count, and leucocyte count], blood biochemistry (total protein, blood urea 
      nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, total bilirubin, total cholesterol, aspartate 
      aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and lactate 
      dehydrogenase), and histopathological analysis for organs such as liver, kidney, 
      testis, ovary, spleen, brain, heart, and lung were performed on day 90. Results 
      showed no significant differences in the above analyses between IF magnetic field 
      exposed and sham control rats. Therefore, we conclude that there were no 
      significant toxicities in rats exposed to 20 kHz IF triangular magnetic 
      field-exposure for 90 days.
