Abstract
A process is described for the treatment of stem cells or differentiated cells by application of radiofrequency electro-magnetic fields, by means of an electromagnetic field generator (10), comprising a power supply (11), at least one antenna (12) adapted to radiate a scattered electromagnetic field (13) of a power less than 100 mW, a modulator (14) associated with said generator (10) and adapted to modulate the emission thereof, and at least one convector electrode (15), adapted to be direct the radiofrequency currents induced by said electromagnetic field (13), and applied in proximity of said stem or differentiated cells.

A process for treating differentiated cells to turn them into undifferentiated cells or for treating undifferentiated cells to turn them into differentiated cells, comprising the steps of:
- providing an electromagnetic field generator comprising a power supply, at least one antenna capable to radiate a scattered electromagnetic field having a power lower than 100 mW measured at said antenna, a modulator associated to said generator and capable to modulate the emission thereof, at least one convector electrode capable to direct the radiofrequency currents induced by the above said electromagnetic field;
- providing differentiated or undifferentiated cells to be treated;
- placing said at least one convector electrode in close proximity of said differentiated or undifferentiated cells under treatment;
- radiating said differentiated or undifferentiated cells under treatment by means of said electromagnetic field generator.
