Abstract
A device for cancer treatment and nerve regeneration that induces a non-symmetrical electric field. This electric field is thought to cause electro-osmotic activity around p53 proteins within the body, in addition to altering the transmembrane potential. Both closed and open magnetic field structures can be used towards this end. With a closed magnetic structure, the field is contained within a toroid or similar structure, and the electrical circuit is completed by placing the toroid in a conducting liquid or gel. Using an open circuit, a cut C core of ferromagnetic material is wound with a figure '8' shaped coil and the field is driven into the body. In both cases, the current driving the coil is preferentially asymmetrical, resulting in an induced E field which is not the same in the first half of the cycle as it is in the second. The induced electric field moves organelles into the nerve tip site through the process of electrokinectics.
