Distinct fatty acid redistribution and textural changes in the brain tissue upon the static magnetic field exposure
(Elsevier, 2022)
We observed different outcomes upon the subacute exposure to the 128 mT highly homogeneous static magnetic field (SMF) when its orientation was (i) aligned with the vertical component of the geomagnetic field; (ii) in the ...
