Relationships between the small ions in the atmosphere and the circadian and circannual biorhythm of the rabbit and rat thyroid.

Studies on rats and rabbits revealed the reverse type of correlation existing between the amount of small ions in the atmosphere and the circadian and circannual biorhythm of thyroid RNA and blood PBI. Besides other factors of the climatic-meteorologic complex the ionic charge of the surface air seems to be implied in maintaining and synchronizing the basic thyroid biorhythm genetically determined.

Air ions and the urinary 17-ketosteroids.

The authors correlated the aeroions variations in January, February and March 1963 with urinary 17-KS variations in 5 adult subjects. The results revealed that the excess of positive aeroions induced an increase of the urinary 17-KS eliminations, whereas the excess of negative aeroions induced a decrease.
