| Summary: | The objective of this paper is to provide the fundamental mathematical formula to predict the effect of
magnetic fields (MF) on stem cell differentiation. The data were reviewed from journals related to the
effects of magnetic fields on stem cell differentiation. These data were given a value for differentiation
which is related to their MF strength with these conditions; MF strength that does not affect the stem cell
differentiation given the value of zero, MF strength that results in stem cells death given the value of 1, and
the MF strength that affects stem cells The differentiation given the value between 0.1 and 0.9. The graph
was plotted according to these data and the mathematical equation is designed from the graph. From this
review, we suggest that the intensity of MF that can affect the stem cell differentiation is between 600μT
and 9.4T in which the cell differentiation will not occur with intensity of less than 10μT and intensity of
more than 12T will cause the death of stem cells. We also suggest that the limit of MF effects on stem cell
differentiation lies between 10 μT and 600 μT, and the limit of MF strength that can lead to the death of
stem cells lies between 9.4 T and 12 T. |
