Scale Bar=1 “μm” Nerve Regeneration Studies It is noted that the energy state and bioelectric potential of nerves may be modulated by pico-Tesla electromagnetic fields (PTEMF’s) [1-8]. For the following nerve regeneration studies, the field intensities, gradients and frequencies were calculated with the Jacobson Resonance equations; considering subcellular components vital for nerve function. Target molecules included nerve growth factors, dynein, kinesine, microtubule associated protein (MAP), neurofilaments, tubulin, cholinesterase, acetylcholine, and calmodulin. It was determined that the natural EMF profile for mice is in the micro gauss range (1 μG=100 pT). A sequence of extremely low-level EMF magnitudes with correspondent biological frequencies (<300 Hz) was employed.
