Effects of pulsed magnetic fields on cilia of comb jelly

Marine comb jellies utilize cilia, arrays of bundled protein microtubules, for propulsion in water. Previous studies have reported on the orientation of the microtubules in steady electric and magnetic fields. Here, the effects of pulsed magnetic fields up to 2.2 Tesla on cilia fragments was investi...
