[代謝が活性および不活性の状態の冬コムギの種子の水和に対する非電離および電離放射線の影響比較研究] med./bio.

To study the effects of a physiological solution exposed to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields, extremely low frequency electromagnetic field-modulated millimeter waves, or ionizing radiation on water absorption and dry mass changes in winter wheat seeds.

5 ml of an exposed physiological solution was added to each Petri dish containing 10 seeds and incubated for 2 h or 72 h. Dry and wet mass was determined before and after incubation of the seeds.
After 2 h incubation, the seed's metabolic activity is still in an inactive state and its water absorption depends on osmotic gradients between the seed and the culture medium (physiological solution), while after 72 h incubation, when germination processes are active, the seed hydration depends on anti-gradient water absorption by seeds also.

• wheat seed (Triticum aestivum L.)

After 2 h incubation in the exposed physiological solution the water absorption of the seeds was decreased as compared to the controls in unexposed medium, while after 72 h incubation the effect was reversed. The data suggest that the culture medium may be a target for the effects of non-ionizing radiation and ionizing radiation.
