[Effects of an impulse magnetic field on lipid peroxidation and the antioxidant system of the testes in animal experiments].

The study covered influence of impulse magnetic field on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defence in seminal tissue of rats. Monthly exposure to the impulse magnetic field (intensity of 30 kA/m; impulse frequency of 2.5 and 25 kHz) activated initial, intermediate and final stages of lipid peroxidation, increased non-enzymatic (ascorbic acid) defence systems and depressed the enzymatic (glutathione peroxidase, catalase) ones.
