Abstract :

Contact increasing of living creatures to electromagnetic felds cause concerns about feld interaction with physiological function of organisms. This survey has done on female and male mice. And, it examined effects of exposure of EMF (1 hour in day, for 7 days) and sexuality on acute pain induced by tail immersion test using 52C ̊ hot water. Results of several experiments reveal, apart from sexuality, EMF had a same decreasing effect on mice’s pain threshold. In conclusion, the results showed that the EMF has the antinociceptive effects on the acute pain threshold
