Effects of Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields on the of 3T3 fibroblast cells

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMFs), are usually low-frequency fields with very specific wave shapes and amplitude, have been shown to accelerate wound healing and are used in adjuvant therapy. Also Pulsed Radio Frequency Energy (PRFE) is another term for this therapy that delivers electromagnetic signals to a target tissue without the intended generation of deep heat. Although the exact mechanism of action on wound healing is still unclear, it is known both treatment have effect on cell proliferation and migration. The present study examined the effect of PEMF (75 Hz frequency, square waveform, and 1-mT magnetic field) and PRFE (27.12 MHz, amplitude modulation (AM), and 13-dBm amplitude signal) treatments on an in vitro wound healing model using by 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells.
