The main goal of this study was to evaluate the possible effect of whole-body magnetic field (MF) exposure on the variations of
glucose and cortisol hormone levels on 36 adult male Guinea pigs. in four separate experiments, male Guinea pigs, were exposed to
sinusoidal 5Hz ,0.013 μT and 50 Hz – 0.207μT MF. Duration of exposure was 2 and 4 h/day over a period of 5 days. At the end of the
exposure, blood samples were isolated and level of glucose hormone measured by Auto analyzer. cortisol content of blood sera was
measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). We found significant decreases in the levels of glucose and cortisol hormone in 50 Hz –
0.207μT MF after 2 h exposure (p < 0.05). This condition was seen only for Glucose hormone after 4 h exposure (p < 0.05). in all test
sample, exposure after 2 or 4 h in 50 Hz – 0.207μT , showed greater decrease compared to 5Hz ,0.013 μT MF. Our results indicated
that a presumably direct effect of whole – body MF exposure on levels of glucose and cortisol hormones.
