Abstract
The objective of the study : to assess the potential bactericidal action of UHF on Mycobacterium avium strain104 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Rv. Subjects and methods : M. avium strain 104 and M. tuberculosis strain H37Rv and the microwave generator of Agilent Technologies E82570 1 were used; in order to define the radiation frequency to be set up at the generator, the frequencies of torsion oscillations of mycobacterial DNAhelices were calculated. Results of the study : it was demonstrated that the nonthermal UHF field was capable of inhibiting the growth of M. avium strain 104 and M. tuberculosis strain H37Rv.
