The time required for the shift in pH after addition of small quantities of a weak acid into fixed volumes of spring water was measured once per minute while the sample was exposed to magnetic field configurations that have been shown to influence photon emissions and to produce non-local effects in other experiments. The rotating magnetic fields were generated through a circular array of eight solenoids first with an accelerating angular group and decelerating phase velocity followed by a decelerating angular group and accelerating phase velocity for a total of 18 min. There was an intensity dependent increase in the latency (from 185 s to 886 s) required for the pH to decrease (towards acidity) between ~0.13 and ~0.33 μT (microTesla) where an asymptote was evident. The duration was systematically related to the magnetic energy within the volumes of spring water associated with various intensities. Quantitative analyses indicated that the most likely mechanism involved the energy per molecule associated with the numbers of HCO₃^- and H⁺ ions in the fixed volumes. These results suggest that weak magnetic fields with specific rotational configurations within physiologically relevant volumes of water containing several ion species can delay the onset of acid-base responses in buffered systems.
