Changes in the Antibacterial Activity of Benzylpenicillin Exposed to a Pulsed High-Intensity Magnetic Field

详细

An increase in the antibacterial effect of the benzylpenicillin sodium salt that was irradiated with pulsed magnetic field at certain parameters (H intensity, f frequency, and n number of pulses) has been revealed. Both powdered antibiotic and its solution were exposed to a pulsed magnetic field. The objects of research were Escherichia coli bacteria. The antibacterial effect was assessed by an increase in the zones of Escherichia coli lysis in comparison with the control (non-irradiated) material. A model that explains the effect of pulsed magnetic field on the antibiotic molecule behavior has been proposed.
