[Condensation of amino acids in aqueous solutions after exposure to weak electromagnetic fields]
Abstract
Formation of stable specific products of a polycondensation of the peptide-bond linked amino acids is shown under the combined affect of weak electric and magnetic fields the effect is observed when a frequency of the alternating magnetic field corresponds to cyclotronic frequencies of the ionized forms of the amino acid molecules.

People are immersed in electromagnetic fields from such sources as power lines, domestic appliances, mobile phones, and even electrical storms. All living beings sense electric fields, but the physical origins of the phenomenon are still unclear. Magnetobiology considers the effects of electromagnetic fields on living organisms. It provides a comprehensive review of relevant experimental data and theoretical concepts, and discusses all major modern hypotheses on the physical nature of magnetobiological effects. It also highlights some problems that have yet to be solved and points out new avenues for research.
Why do some people feel unwell during a lightning storm?
Why is there a correlation between the level of electromagnetic background and the incidence of cancer?
Why do so many medical centers use electromagnetic exposures to treat a wide variety of disorders in humans?
The international scientific community is extremely interested in a theory of magnetobiology and the answers to these and other questions, as evidenced by the growing number of research associations in the United States, Europe, and other parts of the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) has named electromagnetic contamination in occupational and residential areas as a stress factor for human beings.
This book stands out among recent texts on magnetobiology because it draws on a strong foundation of empirical and theoretical evidence to explain the various effects of magnetic fields on the human body. It contains the first comprehensive collection of experimental data bearing physical information, frequency and amplitude/power spectra, and original research data on how electromagnetic fields interfere with ions and molecules inside the proteins of living organisms.

... It seems that other mechanisms are at work here. In Novikov and Zhadin (1994) and Novikov (1994Novikov ( , 1996 the effect occurred at a relative MF amplitude of about 10 −3 and did not occur at 10 −1 . It is quite probable that this is due to the presence of an electric field and a current in an electrochemical cell employed in those works. ...

... Works (Novikov, 1996) and (Fesenko et al., 1997) are devoted to investigations into the molecular polycondensation reaction of some amino acids in solutions exposed to a variable MF of about 20 nT parallel to a local dc MF of about the geomagnetic field. The MF had a frequency of several hertz, which corresponded to characteristic cyclotron frequencies of amino acid molecules. ...
