Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of the power-frequency electromagnetic field on antioxidant indexes in operation personnel. METHODS: By random sampling method,a total of 58 workers who work in 500 kV transformer substations for at least 5. 0 years were selected as the exposure group,and 60 administrative staffs in the same enterprise were included as the control group. The power frequency electromagnetic fields in the 2 groups were measured. The cumulative exposure dose of individual magnetic field was calculated. Peripheral venous blood was collected in these 2groups and was examined with the superoxide dismutase( SOD) activity,malondialdehyde( MDA) level and the relative gene expression level of manganese superoxide dismutase( MnSOD). RESULTS: There was no statistical significance in the SOD activity,MDA level and the relative gene expression level of MnSOD between the exposure group and the control group( P > 0. 05). The logistic regression analysis results indicated that cumulative exposure dose was not correlated with the SOD activity,MDA level and the relative gene expression level of MnSOD after adjusting confounding factors such as age,smoking,alcohol and tea drinking( P > 0. 05). CONCLUSION: Power-frequency electromagnetic field exposure has no significant effects on the SOD activity,MDA level and the relative gene expression level of MnSOD of operation workers.
