The study of the bioeffects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) is an important national task in biological physics. Using EMFs to treat bone diseases involves electrical technology, biology, and medicine. But the effects of EMFs are still controversial and the mechanisms are not yet clear. Therefore, more effect is needed to detect the effects at the cellular and molecular levels. This paper investigates the effects of low-energy, low-frequency pulsed capacitively coupled electric fields (PCCEFs) on DNA synthesis in UMR-106 osteoblast-like cells. The equipment can generate 25250Hz frequency, 0300V amplitude and 0.2ms pulse width signal. DNA synthesis is judged by the uptake of 3H-thymidine (3H-TdR). The results showed that the response of UMR-106 cells to electric field exposure are characterized by: (a) a frequency window for increased DNA synthesis, with a peak near 125Hz; (b) decreased synthesis with increasing electric intensity with repression at 100V/cm and 25Hz.
