Influences of an Interference-Offset Field Produced by a Shield Line Non-Induction Coil on Skin Electrodermal Activities and Carrageenin-Induced Edema Author: Aoki T Affiliation: College of Engineering, Chubu University (Aichi, Japan) Conference/Journal: J Intl Soc Life Info Science Date published: 2001 Other: Volume ID: 19 , Issue ID: 2 , Pages: 339-344 , Word Count: 107 An interference-offset field was produced around a shield line non-inductive coil through which an electric current was passed. This field does not have a magnetic field and a vector potential field. When human subjects were irradiated using this interference-offset field, statistically significant changes in the electrodermal activities of the skin were recorded, suggesting that the field affects the autonomous nervous system. In addition, the volume of carrageenin-induced edema of paws in rats was significantly correlated with irradiation intensity (electrical current in the coil). Therefore, this is interference-offset field has an actual effect, although the magnetic field and the vector potential field went out of existence by interference.
