“…Along with this, there is a fairly large number of works that testify to the therapeutic and protective effect of the magnetic field (MF) [5,6]. Conversely, external EMFs can modulate an individual's electromagnetic signals, leading to disturbances in electromagnetic homeostasis [7,8]. It is believed that the basis of the occurrence of various types of pathologies is a violation of the resonance of electromagnetic frequencies of the body's cells [7,9,10].…”

It has been proven that electromagnetic fields (EMF) of various intensities have various effects on living organisms – from a therapeutic effect to the appearance of various functional disorders. The purpose of this study was to investigate the pattern of long-term continuous exposure of poultry with extremely low frequency variable pulsed electromagnetic field (ELF-PEMF) of weak intensity on indicators of lipid metabolism in chickens. 150–day-old Tetra X breed chickens were irradiated with ELF-PEMF at a frequency of 8 Hz for about 30 minutes for 174 days. The irradiation regime of experimental groups 1 and 2 was continuous, and in groups 3 and 4 it was alternated with weekly breaks. In 1 experimental group, poultry was fed according to the basic diet with a protein content increased by 10–15 %, and in 2 – with a protein content reduced by 10–15 %. In the control group of non-irradiated poultry, the protein content in the diet corresponded to generally accepted norms. The results of the experiment proved that the irradiation regimes of ELF-PEMF selected by us have an effect on lipid metabolism in the body of Tetra X breed chickens. On the 112th day of the experiment, regardless of the used regimes of irradiation of chickens with ELF-PEMF and the protein level in the diet, in the blood serum of the experimental groups, compared to the control, an increase in the level of free triacylglycerols by 1.56–2.76 times was found; cholesterol level – by 1.04–1.39 times; of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) – by 1.24–1.84 times and the reduction of atherogenic index – by 1.41–1.73 times, which is predicted to have a positive effect on their health and productive qualities. Meanwhile, during longer exposure of chickens to ELF-PEMF, the level of triacylglycerols in the blood serum of experimental groups of chickens did not differ significantly from the indicators of non-irradiated poultry (control group). In general, by selecting different modes of irradiation with ELF-PEMF with different supply of protein in the rations, it is possible to influence the indicators of lipid metabolism of Tetra X breed chickens.

Summary Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has deleterious effects on sperm motility and viability, as well as oocyte membrane and organelle structure. The aim was to assess the effects of cell phone radiation on preimplantation embryo morphokinetics and blastocyst viability in mice. For superovulation, 20 female mice were treated with intraperitoneal (IP) injections of 10 IU pregnant mare’s serum gonadotropin (Folligon® PMSG), followed by 10 IU of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) after 48 h. The zygotes (n = 150) from the control group were incubated for 4 days. The experimental zygotes (n = 150) were exposed to a cell phone emitting EMR with a frequency range 900–1800 MHz for 30 min on day 1. Then, all embryos were cultured in the time-lapse system and annotated based on time points from the 2-cell stage (t2) to hatched blastocyst (tHDyz), as well as abnormal cleavage patterns. Blastocyst viability was assessed using Hoechst and propidium iodide staining. Significant increases (P < 0.05) were observed in the cleavage division time points of t2, t8, t10, and t12 of the experimental group compared with the controls. In terms of blastocyst formation parameters, a delay in embryo development was observed in the experimental group compared with the controls. Data analysis of the time intervals between the two groups showed a significant difference in the s3 time interval (P < 0.05). Also, the rates of fragmentation, reverse cleavage, vacuole formation, and embryo arrest were significantly higher in the experimental group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the cell survival rate in the experimental group was lower than the control group (P < 0.05). Exposure to EMR has detrimental consequences for preimplantation embryo development in mice. These effects can manifest as defects in the cleavage stage and impaired blastocyst formation, leading to lower cell viability.
