- Abstract
Plants produce a wide range of bioactive principles and are a rich source of medicines. The demand for plant-based therapies is increasing in both developing and developed countries due to the growing recognition that they are natural, non-narcotic, readily biodegradable, pose minimal environmental risk, have no unwanted side effects and are readily available at affordable prices. The beneficial properties of herbs are due to the presence of phytochemicals. Many studies have shown that various herbal medicines are sources of a variety of molecules, many of which exhibit radical scavenging and antimicrobial properties that can defend the human body against pathogens, as well as cell oxidation reactions. The application of photon emission in food is mainly in food quality control. It can serve as a convenient tool for assessing the quality of various types of food. The purpose of this study was to determine the possibility of identifying changes in biological substance based on photon emission characteristics. In addition, to determine the variation in photon emission of infusions of selected herbs that were subjected to an alternating electromagnetic field. The study was conducted on selected usable varieties of herbs: lemon balm and mint. The highest photon emission from plant infusions was obtained when an electromagnetic field intensity of 40 mT was applied. The use of different intensity parameters and stimulation time modifies the structure of photon emission, thus giving the possibility to identify the degree of interaction.
