Relative stability of mineral elements in tissues is necessary for health. High static magnetic fields (HiSMFs) have been widely used in biomedical research and industry. However, the bioeffect of HiSMFs on animals is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of HiSMF exposure on the levels of Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu in the main organs of mice. The 8-week male C57BL/6 mice were treated by 2–4 T, 6–8 T, 10–12 T HiSMFs for 28 days. The mass fractions of Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu in the liver, brain, kidney, and heart in mice were respectively measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy, and used to evaluate mineral element content in tissues. The 2–4 T HiSMF exposure has increased the Mg, Fe, and Ca content in the kidney, as well as the Zn content in the brain. The 6–8 T HiSMF exposure has increased the Zn level in the liver; Mg, Fe, and Ca levels in the kidney; and Fe level in the heart, while the Zn in the kidney, and Zn and Ca in the heart was decreased by 6–8 T HiSMF exposure. For the 10–12 T HiSMF exposure, the Mg in the kidney, the Fe in the liver and kidney, and Cu in the brain have been increased significantly. However, the Zn in the kidney and the Ca in the brain and the heart were reduced by 10–12 T HiSMF exposure. The HiSMF exposure for 28 days can alter the Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu content in mice, and change with the different magnetic flux density of HiSMFs (2–4 T, 6–8 T, 10–12 T), elements, and organ types.
