Results are presented as mean ± S.D. (n = 5);
a
p < 0.05 vs. Control;
b
p < 0.05 vs. SMF0 + F; Control, control culture without magnet (flux density 0T) and without fluoride ions; SMF0 + F, control culture with fluoride ions (0.12 mM) and without magnet (flux density 0 T); SMF1 + F, culture with fluoride ions (0.12 mM) and with magnet (flux density 0.4 T); SMF2 + F, culture with fluoride ions (0.12 mM) and with magnet (flux density 0.6 T); SMF3 + F, culture with fluoride ions (0.12 mM) and with magnet (flux density 0.7 T).
