“DNA Breathing Dynamics in the Presence of a Terahertz Field” by B. S. Alexandrov, V. Gelev, A. R. Bishop, A. Usheva, K. O. Rasmussen (Submitted on 28 Oct 2009)
"Abstract: We consider the influence of a terahertz field on the breathing dynamics of double-stranded DNA. We model the spontaneous formation of spatially localized openings of a damped and driven DNA chain, and find that linear instabilities lead to dynamic dimerization, while true local strand separations require a threshold amplitude mechanism. Based on our results we argue that a specific terahertz radiation exposure may significantly affect the natural dynamics of DNA, and thereby influence intricate molecular processes involved in gene expression and DNA replication."
The book "The Body Electric: Electromagnetism And The Foundation Of Life"
by Robert Becker and Gary Selden, is a foundational book for this research. First published in 1998.
Becker in his research found that lower power levels could have biological effects, everything else being equal, than higher power levels.
