The c-myctranscript levels were further analysed in regard to: 1. a change to the steady state transcript levels, 2. the return to control levels, 3. the influence of a second stimulus with the same or different field strength, 4. the occurrence of a refractory period and 5. the occurrence of an "acquired tolerance".
The magnetic field was generated by a pair of coils consisting of 164 turns of 19 gauge copper wire which was wound around a 13 x 14 cm Plexiglass form with in an 8 cm space. The exposure system was placed in a µ-metal container. The flasks were placed horizontally on a Plexiglass stand in an homogeneous area of the coil. sham exposure took place simultaneously in the same incubator which was also shielded with a µ-metal container.
