Influence of constant magnetic fields on certain physiochemical properties of water

There has been considerable recent interest in the question of effects of constant magnetic fields (CMF) on living organisms. The possible alteration of the physiochemical properties of water appears to be one example of such an influence. The dielectric constant, pH, and surface tension of water exposed to CMF action were studied. The results fail to confirm the changes observed by some authors. Controversial opinions on this problem are also summarized and discussed.
