From the interaction of the permanent magnetic dipole moment of a neutral particle with an electric field inside a long nonconducting cylindrical shell of inner radius ${r}_{a}$ and outer radius ${r}_{b}$, we show that a geometric quantum phase stems from the missing electric charge per unit length. Thus, we discuss the possibility of existing Aharonov-Bohm-type effects with regard to this geometric quantum phase. Further, we discuss the persistent spin currents.
