Abstract:
This study is focused on experimental validation of our hypothesis proposed within the Resonant Recognition Model (RRM) [7], [8] that protein function can be modified by an applied electromagnetic radiation of defined frequency in a range of infra red (IR), visible and ultra violet (UV) light. This postulate is investigated here by applying the electromagnetic radiation (1140-1200 nm) to example of L-Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) protein and its biological activity is measured before and after the exposures. The presented methodology provides a possibility of enhancing the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries by amplifying drug potency via electromagnetic radiation.
