Series of experiments: Kleinsche Fields generate bioelectric impulses in the blood

How permanent static magnetic fields affect the human body has not yet been clearly clarified. One accepted hypothesis is that the movement of the blood through a magnetic field could cause an electrical microvoltage to act on the cells, similar to that described in classical biophysics. This microvoltage could trigger bioelectric impulses in the body, which play a role in the regulation of blood circulation, cell energy and regenerative processes.

Dr. Jordan M. Petrow at the Academy of Science and Research Rostock investigated this hypothesis and examined whether Kleinsche Fields can induce electrical microvoltages in the smallest blood vessels (capillaries) and trigger the body's own impulses.

Interesting facts

In order to investigate the interaction between Kleinsche Fields and capillaries, a capillary loop was simulated. Different fluids were passed through it: physiological saline solution (0.9 % NaCl), double-distilled water (electrically non-conductive) and fresh blood (heparinized to inhibit coagulation). The measurements were carried out using an ECG device in order to record even the smallest electrical voltages in the system. The movement of the capillaries was simulated by mounting the Kleinsche Fields on a motor-driven turntable that moved at different speeds. This mimicked the natural pulsation of the blood through the heartbeat.

Kleinsche Fields trigger ECG signal

Measurable induction voltage in the blood

The experimental series was able to show that Kleinsche Fields do indeed generate measurable induced voltages - with differing intensity depending on the fluid flowing through:

1. Double-distilled water showed no measurable voltage, as it is not electrically conductive.

2. Physiological saline solution showed a slight induced voltage, but well below physiologically relevant values.

3. Heparinised blood showed the strongest induction response, with voltages in the range of several millivolts - comparable to natural bioelectric signals in the body (e.g. an ECG signal).

Stronger effect at higher speed

Only movement leads to an effect

The study showed that Kleinsche Fields generate measurable electrical microvoltages in the simulated capillaries. Interestingly, the induction voltage increased with the speed of movement of the magnetic fields, which corresponds to the classic law of induction. This means that the natural flow of blood through the Kleinsche Fields creates dynamic electrical activity that could affect cells and tissue.

Does research sound complicated? Here we explain what the results mean for everyday life.

How do magnetic fields affect the body?

Vital electrical processes are constantly taking place in the cells of our body. For example, information is transmitted electrically to the nerve cells and the heart would not beat without the body's own "electrical energy".

However, if the bioelectric currents in the body are disturbed, the cells can no longer perform their normal functions optimally. This is where treatment with magnetic fields comes in. However, although the application of magnetic fields has a long history, it is still not fully understood how magnets affect our bodies. It is currently assumed that (electro)magnetic fields have an effect at cellular level and could therefore influence the body's own regulatory mechanisms for self-healing.

Biophysical laws suggest that static magnetic fields generate micro-voltages as soon as their magnetic field hits the body. According to the theory, this microvoltage interacts with the conductive structures in the body and is intended to increase the electrical activity of the cells in this way. This interaction would enable the cells to perform their functions - which are based on electrical activity - better again. The result: improved cell metabolism, stronger regeneration and support for the body's self-healing powers.

The fascinating model for this mode of action is the earth's geomagnetic field, also known as the geomagnetic field. This natural magnetic field constantly surrounds us and creates stable environmental conditions for plants, animals and us humans. It protects us from harmful solar radiation and cosmic radiation, for example.

However, the geomagnetic field also appears to have an influence on other aspects of life on earth. Studies indicate that plants, animals and humans can react to changes in the static magnetic field. In particular, a hypomagnetic field, i.e. a decreasing or shielded geomagnetic field, is currently being scientifically investigated in more detail. The investigations suggest that the changes in the magnetic field could have an effect on cell metabolism and, in particular, on the "power plants" of the cells, the mitochondria. Among other things, the Earth's magnetic field could influence biological rhythms such as the sleep-wake rhythm and even the function of our nervous system.1-7 Nature thus shows us that the power of magnetic fields is deeply rooted in evolution and could play an important role in our health balance.

Several millivolts measurable

Induction voltage comparable to ECG signals

In the capillaries with blood flowing through them, the induced microvoltages were significantly higher than in the saline solution, which indicates a stronger interaction between the magnetic field and the biological fluids - such as blood, lymph or cerebrospinal fluid. The voltage induction here reached several millivolts. These results are remarkable because they showed voltage values comparable to those of natural bioelectric signals in the body, such as the potential changes measured with an ECG.

Results of the test series at a glance

The series of experiments provides the first scientific proof that Kleinsche Fields can generate electrical impulses in the capillary system. These induced microvoltages could play a central role in the physiological effects of this technology.

The results suggest that Kleinsche Fields may have a regulatory influence on bioelectrical processes in the body. Future studies could now clarify how these effects can be transferred to clinical practice, particularly in pain therapy, blood circulation stimulation and cell regeneration.

Our conclusion of the test series

The induced microvoltages are not only measurable, but also reach values that could have biological relevance, particularly for blood circulation, cell metabolism and the ability to regenerate:

Circulation

The microcirculation could be influenced by the electrical impulses, which can improve the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the cells.

Regeneration

Mitochondrial activity could be supported by electrical stimulation, which increases energy production in the cells. This can increase cell activity and improve the ability to regenerate.

Immediate reaction

The results could provide an explanation as to why some users feel the effect of the Kleinsche Fields immediately - just seconds after application.
