Effect of Cactus Plants on Magnetic Fields Bruited by Computer Screens

Abstract

People who spend most of their daily lives in environments or labs with computer are exposed to magnetic fields in high levels. In particular, the harmful rays that computer screens transmit are adversely affecting human health. In this study, firstly the negative effects of magnetic fields on human health were examined by literature review. Additionally, whether cactus plants could reduce harmful rays of computer screens were examined and results of measurements done were presented. ELF (very low frequency) measurements were performed by placing the cactus plants and computer screens in various forms and environments. Similar results were obtained with repeated measurements and tests on different (LCD, Tubular) displays, and it was concluded that the cactus plants did not minimize the magnetic field in the environment
