Abstract
This paper presents results on the electromagnetic field computed inside isolated mitochondria when they are exposed to near-infrared illuminations with reference to photobiomodulation experiments. The accurate calculation of the electromagnetic dose is considered to be important for a better understanding of the mechanism of interaction of light with these organelles and to improve the reliability and repeatability of the experiments. To get such results, we introduce several models. Even though they refer to a well-defined experimental setup, different models are necessary to take into account the possible different dispositions of the mitochondria, and of the differences in their dimensions and in their constitutive parameters. Different wavelengths and polarizations are considered as well. The effects of all parameters on the electromagnetic field inside mitochondria are discussed. © 2021 Bioelectromagnetics Society.
