Growth Rate of Staphylococcus Aureus in weak magnetic field

A comparative study of the growth of S.aureus in different types of weak magnetic field shows that the growth of the bacteria is initially suppressed after inoculation in a new medium and then increased in the same pattern with or without magnetic field. However, the rate of growth and death of bacteria depend on the variation in the magnetic field for comparable strength. Magnetic field effect on the ionic motion plays a key role in the growth rate. It is shown that the concentration of bacteria reduces initially and then it starts increasing after some time. Multiplication and death of bacterial cells is related to its interaction with the nutrients which is managed by the magnetic field direction, strength and variation at room temperature.
