The article presents the results obtained by testing the previously proposed physical and mathematical model of the temperature distribution in the layer of poured seeds when irradiated with a high-frequency electromagnetic field. It has been proven that temperature is one of the factors influencing the consequences of pre-sowing seed treatment. We have found out that, along with heating, other physical processes occur in the seed structure at the level of cell membranes and membrane transport of substances. The transformation of protein structures, the polarization of cell membranes, and the intensification of metabolic processes under the influence of irradiation can lead to changes in the electrical properties of seeds and, as a consequence, can impact on the physiological state, germinability and growth energy of plants. The result of the seed exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic field depends on the electrical characteristics of the seeds. We have developed a technology for the pre-sowing treatment of Echinacea and Valerian seeds in order to obtain more ecologically pure raw materials for pharmacological industry. The study has demonstrated positive thermal and oscillation effects produced by the electromagnetic field on the structural elements of seeds. Based on the method of presowing stimulation of the seeds with a high-frequency electromagnetic field, the optimal modes for irradiation of Echinacea and Valerian seeds have been elaborated. It has been established that boosting the overall resistance of biological tissue, an increase in the polarization of cell membranes indicates an enhancement of metabolic processes and, as a result, stimulates the process of seed germination and rapid vegetation in the early stages of plant development. Theoretical calculations and experimental studies have evidenced positive results doe to implementation of the described technology.

The paper describes the process of changing the electrical properties of wheat seeds exposed to high-frequency electromagnetic irradiation. It has been proven that temperature is one of the factors influencing the consequences of pre-sowing seed treatment. It has been found out that along with heating, some other physical processes occur in the seed structure at the level of cell membranes and intramembranous transport. The transformation of protein structures, the polarization of cell membranes, and intensification of metabolic processes under the exposure to high-frequency irradiation can lead to an alteration in the electrical properties of seeds and, as a consequence, to an effect on the physiological state, similarity and growth energy of plants. The result of the action of a high-frequency electromagnetic field on the seeds depends on the electrical characteristics of the seeds. A physical and mathematical model of the electrical properties of biological seed tissue has been proposed. According to this model the cells are regarded as parallelepipeds of particular sizes surrounded by external cellular membranes, which, in turn, are surrounded by intercellular substance. This substance is characterized by considerable electrical conductivity. The interior of the cell is also characterized by high conductivity. The cell membrane is characterized by complex resistance having active and capacitive components. The change in the passive electrical characteristics of seeds exposed to high-frequency electromagnetic field has been theoretically grounded and supported by the experiments. This study has also demonstrated changes in the dielectric permeability of seeds, their complex and active resistance, polarization coefficient, and dielectric loss tangent as a result of electromagnetic stimulation. It is noteworthy that the seeds cannot be represented as a uniform dielectric in which only one of the known types of polarization (electronic, dipole, space-charge) occurs. The seed includes biological membranes, the state of which significantly affects the electrical properties. The degree of polarization of the membranes in a certain way changes due to the exposure of any external stimuli. It has been established that an increase in the complex resistance of the biological tissue, an increase in the polarization of cell membranes indicates an intensification of metabolic processes and, as a result, stimulates the process of seed germination and rapid vegetation in the early stages of plant development.

Introduction: Cardiac pacing is indicated for sick sinus syndrome. It is performed with a pacemaker via electrodes implanted in the heart. This technique has several disadvantages. The search for alternative methods of cardiac pacing is underway. One of them is control of heart rhythm through stimulation of the tragus. Objective: To perform the reflex stimulation of the sinoatrial node and to study the influence of the SS-68 substance on it. Materials and methods: Two electrodes were fixed in the reflexogenic zone of rabbits’ auricles, volleys of electrical impulses from an electrical stimulator were applied to the electrodes, and the synchronization range of volley frequency and cardiac contractions was recorded. This range was re-recorded again after injecting the SS-68 substance (2-phenyl-1-(3-pyrrolidine-1-cyclopropyl)-1H-indole hydrochloride) intravenously at a dose of 50 µg/kg. In other experiments on frogs in a high-frequency electromagnetic field, the process of excitation of the area of the medulla oblongata associated with the heart rhythm was visualized. After the application of SS-68 (50 μM) to the surface of this zone, the process of its excitation was recorded. Results and discussion: Stimulation of the auricular reflexogenic zone of rabbits produced a synchronization of volley frequency and heart rate in the range from 173.5 ± 2.0 to 214.0 ± 1.8 per minute. SS-68 extended this range from 168.2 ± 1.9 to 219.4 ± 1.5 per minute. In the frog’s medulla oblongata, an area synchronous to the heart rhythm glowed in the high-frequency electromagnetic field. SS-68 increased the area of glow by 131.0%. Conclusion: The substance SS-68 increases the frequency range of heart rhythm control by activating reflex stimulation of the sinoatrial node. The main point of application of SS-68 is the medulla oblongata. Glow in the high-frequency electromagnetic field reflects the process of neuron excitation. The increase in the glow zone under the influence of SS-68 indicates synchronously excited neurons, which leads to the assimilation of the central heart rhythm generation by the sinoatrial node.

Abstract The report of introduced techniques and theoretical, analytical and experimental studies of foreign and our national scientists in recent years are given in this article. it has been established that treatment with a high frequency electromagnetic field achieves a high efficiency in drying the cocoon and killing pupae. The shell of the cocoon does not heat up with this method. This is explained by the fact that the high frequency energy is absorbed mainly in the pupa because of the difference of the dielectric constant, which leads to the heating of the pupa to 90-95 ° C and they die within 30 seconds depending on the power.

AbstractSoft-contact of molten steel can be achieved by applying a high-frequency electromagnetic field above the mold of continuous casting, which can effectively eliminate surface defects and achieve billets with no cracks and no oscillation marks. It also has some influence on the mold flux. In this study, the effect of a high-frequency electromagnetic field (20 kHz) on a mold flux flow field was simulated using a finite element software, and the slag film was extracted using a slag film simulator. The effect of the high-frequency magnetic field on the microstructure of the mold flux was analyzed using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and mineral phase testing. The results show that the high-frequency electromagnetic field disrupts the orderly movement and increases the movement rate of the liquid flux. The precipitate phase of the slag film did not change, but the silicate dimer Q1 decreased, the chain Q2 increased, and the network degree was increased. The slag film structure changed from the original two-layer form of crystalline layer–glass layer into a three-layer form of crystal layer–glass layer–crystal, and the crystallization ratio increased by 35% on average. The grain-size melilite granularity was reduced from the original 0.12 to 0.005 mm.
