Abstract

Recently, it is recorded that electromagnetic field (E.M.F) is considered dramatically as one of the most dangerous environmental pollutant especially among the developing industrialization societies. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of continuous daily exposure to alternating magnetic field (AC/E.M.F). Adult male mice were classified into three groups. The first group was kept as control. The second group received (50 HZ/AC of 2mT) daily for 20 days. The third group received the same dose and kept for another one month (post treatment) without exposure. Histological and Ultrastuctural studies were carried out on liver tissue using light and electron microscopes. The microscopic examination of the liver specimen of the second group revealed degenerated liver tissue when compared to control group, shrinking rough endoplasmic reticulum, swollen degenerated mitochondria and pyknotic nuclei. Examination of the liver specimens of the third group showed more severe degeneration in comparison with the second group and no sign of recovery was observed.
