Effect of magnetized water on the histological structure of the kidney of albino rats

Abstract EN

The present study investigates the possible histological effects of the magnetized water on the kidneys of Albino Rats.

Tap water samples were collected from Faculty of Science, Zagazig University, Zagazig, Egypt.

Twenty albino rats were divided into for 2 groups, the first group was considered as a control group (Pre-exposure, PE) and for group 2 drinking water was exposed to a weak static magnetic field (MF) generated from a stack of magnets (B = 18 Gs).

After the treatment, albino rats (RatusNorvegicus) were kept for a month (30 days) and then the kidney tissue samples were prepared and analyzed using a transmission electron microscope (TEM).

The physicochemical parameters of water samples and Blood Parameters were estimated.

In addition the renal functional parameters were studied.

The results of this study indicated that the magnetized water destroyed the renal functions and changed the water elements and Blood parameters.

On the microscopic level; the histological examination of kidney showed abnormal configuration of renal tubules RT, congested blood vessel and degenerated renal tubules arrow, necrosis N, glomerular shrinkage GS, and increase in space between glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule.

Thus, it could be suggesting that.
