Abstract

The electromagnetic field of industrial frequency (50 Hz) is an important environmental factor with biological activity. Radiation sources of this frequency range extended everywhere currently and have a continuing impact on different groups of organisms. Article examines the actual question of the influence of the electromagnetic field of industrial frequency on the quantitative composition of the white blood cells of small mammals. The study was performed on adult albino mice, with condition of identical selection of animals for the experimental and control groups of the experiment. It is shown, that prolonged presence in the zone of influence of this factor causes quantitative changes in leukocyte component of peripheral blood of laboratory mice. The changes of total and absolute number of peripheral blood leukocytes of animals that were in the zone of influence of the electromagnetic field of industrial frequency and also a different direction of these changes for males and females were identified. Absence of changes in the proportion of different forms of peripheral blood leukocytes of the experimental group animals was observed.
