“…Therefore, the initial acceptance of geomagnetic disturbances by immunocytes is possible, but unlikely. Gorgo et al (2018) in recent study the monitoring of specific intensity of bacteria Photobacterium phosphoreum luminescence has been carried out for 2 months (September-October 2015) and it was compared to the daily values of activity of the geomagnetic field in the conditions of Kyїv, during the research of bioluminescence. Variation determination of the geomagnetic field was conducted from data of Space Environment Center, NOAA&U.S. Air Force.…”

“…Interestingly, the average values of Ap-indexes were close to those in our observations (in September 13,7±2,68 nT; in October 14,9±1,90 nT). Surprising is the proximity of the force of influence of the intensity of variations of the magnetic field on the day of testing (Ap0) both on the manifestation of bacterial activity (Gorgo et al, 2018) and phagocytic function of neutrophils against bacteria . This, in our opinion, confirms the direct effect of the geomagnetic field disturbances on human neutrophils.…”

Background. Recently, on the example of two cohort of patients, we found that disturbances of the geomagnetic field cause a significant immediate modulating effect on the level of immune parameters in the blood. The data available in the literature give grounds for assumptions about the direct effect of disturbances of the geomagnetic field on immunocytes, and indirectly, through immunotropic neurotransmitters and hormones. Our hypothesis is as follows. Disturbances of the geomagnetic field are perceived by acupuncture points. The information obtained is transmitted to neurons and endocrinocytes, the mediators of which, in turn, affect immunocytes. The purpose of this study is to test this hypothesis. Material and methods. The object of observation were 21 men (24-63 y) and 20 women (30-72 y) with neuroendocrine-immune complex dysfunction. Each patient was tested twice with an interval of 4 days. Retrospectively we recorded the geomagnetic Ap-Index on the day of testing and during the previous 7 days, using resource https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/. Recorded the heart rate variability (HRV) parameters, determined the plasma level of cortisol, triiodothyronine and testosterone. Results. During the week, the average level of Ap-index ranged from 7 to 13 nT. Maximum coefficients of multiple correlation with HRV&Hormonal parameters were detected for Ap-index on 2 (R=0,506) and 7 (R=0,403) days before testing. The canonical correlation between Ap-indices for 7 days before and on the day of testing, and the HRV&Hormonal parameters is 0,766. In turn, the immune parameters are closely related to the HRV&Hormonal parameters (R=0,714). Conclusion. Disturbances of the geomagnetic field (Ap-index) causes a significant immediate modulating effect on the immune, HRV and endocrine parameters, apparently through acupuncture points as polymodal receptors of the ecoceptive sensitivity system.

“…It is shown that in the case of an increase in the intensity of variations of the geomagnetic field, there is a decrease in the values of the specific intensity of the bioluminescence of bacteria. The use of an automated system for monitoring the intensity of glow of luminescent bacteria makes it possible to predict in time the presence of perturbations of the magnetic field of the Earth [64].…”

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) can occur both naturally and due to human activity. Nowadays, through the innovative communication technologies, the new sources of artificial EMFs are widely disseminated. Therefore, one needs to study the artificial EMFs and mechanisms of their influence on biosystems. The paper deals with the issues of the influence of artificial EMFs on human health, environment and biological objects. The experimental and theoretical investigations concerning an action of EMF are analyzed. The description of principles of standardization of non-specific EMFs and protection from the influence of manmade fields is presented. Possible mechanisms of EMF and electromagnetic radiation (EMR) action on biological objects, including those due to the accumulation of biogenic magnetic nanoparticles in an organism, are discussed. The aim of the research is to review state-of-the-art methods for detecting the biological effects of non-thermal non-ionizing EMF and EMR and to determine the prospects of using biological testsystems for evaluation of effects of EMFs. Hereby, the main attention is drawn to EMF sensors based on the cultures of microorganisms. The classification of existing test-systems is proposed according to criteria: 1) vitality of cells; 2) motor activity of cells; 3) bioluminescence and color changes under the influence of EMF. The need to develop simple and reliable biological indicators for various types of EMFs, especially for ultrahigh-frequency radiation in connection with the introduction of 5G communications technology, is substantiated. The necessity of standardized test-protocols for comparison of research results is emphasized. It is shown that the description of corresponding experiments should be accompanied by the following features: 1) name of the cell culture; native or modified cells; 2) physical characteristics of EMF or EMR (frequency, power, modulation, source type); 3) exposure duration of; 4) list of parameters to be investigated; 5) research methods; 6) absolute measurements, results and the relative magnitude of an effect; 7) what does the influence depend on (temperature, age of cell culture, composition of the nutrient medium); 8) inheritance of changes in cells; 9) relaxation time of the effect.

The influences of cosmic radiation on atoms and molecules in the Earth's atmosphere were observed with subsequent transformation of atoms, molecules of gases, as well as development of states of oxygen deficiency (hypoxic) in biological organisms, some recommended ways of such disorders correction. Purposes of this work were to study radiation effects in ionosphere with subsequent high-energy transformations of atoms, molecules of gases at different heights above the Earth surface; interaction of some high-energy atmospheric particles with biological objects at near Earth's heights up to 5.500 m above sea level (a.s.l.), and oxygen roles in consequences of biological organisms’ irradiation. Methods. Analysis of results of satellite and rocket observations of the Earth atmosphere gases exploring at different altitudes a.s.l. Investigations in mountain conditions at EMBS research station of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine: comparative analysis of results of long-term observation of patients using standard laboratory methods, complex of methodological techniques: clinical, physiological studies of respiratory, cardiovascular systems; hematological, immunological states; functional state of higher nervous activity, mental and neurotic state; antihypoxants use, histochemical, biophysical methods, math modelling, others. Results. The last data obtained during the satellites atmosphere exploring were presented: studies of influences on the structure of atoms, molecules in atmosphere, concentrations of gases from ionosphere to the Earth surface, such phenomena as photochemical processes, photoionization. The notion “information” was discussed basing on phenomena, described in the article. Described studies of gases particles modification, oxygen deficiency in organisms (hypoxic states) were supplemented with the results of irradiated Chernobyl patients’ examinations, rehabilitation by Ukrainian doctors, scientists in mountain conditions. Conclusions. Phenomena of solar radiation influence on atoms, molecules and molecular complexes in the Earth's atmosphere were observed. The main attention was concentrated on the studies of gases concentrations at different heights with linked effects of oxygen roles in consequences of organisms’ irradiation and rehabilitation. Practical recommendations for patients’ medical care and rehabilitation were done.
