The abstract states that extremely weak VHF fields (147 MHz, 1 mW/cm²) amplitude-modulated at brain-wave frequencies have been shown to strongly influence spontaneous and conditioned EEG patterns in the cat. It also notes related laboratory work where weak pu…
Rabbits were exposed to 2450-MHz continuous microwave radiation and lens effects were assessed by slit-lamp examination. Electron microscopy of two selected lenses (one severely damaged by slit-lamp exam and one appearing unaffected) found prominent ultrastru…
In laboratory tests in air, all 16 pacemakers showed signs of interference at pulse power densities between 0.025 mW/cm2 and 62.5 mW/cm2. In field testing 1.2 km from the radar station, 3 of 6 implanted pacemakers were triggered or inhibited depending on mode…
Using essentially the same RF parameters across experiments, the authors report an association between changes in avoidance behavior and changes in brain permeability (fluorescent dye index). They also report a difference in effectiveness between pulsed and c…
After whole-body microwave irradiation (2450 MHz, 100 mW/cm^2), mice showed increased leukocyte number in blood and decreased total cell volume of bone marrow and spleen. Hematopoietic stem cell (CFU) counts increased early after irradiation in bone marrow an…
Quail eggs exposed 4 hr/day during the first 5 incubation days at 2450 MHz (30 mW/cm^2; absorbed power 14 mW/g) showed no great changes in body weight, gross malformations, rbc, wbc, hematocrit, hemoglobin, differential wbc percentages, or hatch percentage co…
Experiment 1: A single intense 2450-MHz exposure (38 mW/g for 600 sec) did not reliably increase fetal mortality or morbidity versus controls, while cortisone increased stillborn and deformed fetuses. Experiment 2: Cortisone-treated sham-radiated dams had nea…
Male rats exposed to 10.7 GHz (cw), 3 GHz (cw), or 3 GHz (pw) for 185 hours at ~1 mW/cm^2 showed no differences in post-exposure spontaneous activity compared with nonirradiated controls. A subset exposed to 3 GHz (pw) for 17 days at 25 mW/cm^2 also showed no…
Enzyme preparations exposed to 2450 MHz microwaves at an absorbed dose rate of 42 W/kg showed no difference in specific activity at 25°C compared with unirradiated controls.
In double-blind ophthalmologic exams of 477 microwave-exposed workers versus 340 unexposed controls, no significant difference was found in three lenticular findings equated with early cataract formation. The authors conclude the results do not support that m…
This paper proposes a simple theory to explain pearl chain formation and alignment of biological particles in liquid media under an applied electric field. The abstract states that alignment is independent of applied field frequency, occurs after a time delay…
The study investigated bird feathers as piezoelectric transducers in the audiofrequency range and as dielectric receptors of electromagnetic radiation in the microwave region. It reports piezoelectric resonances in the 1–20 kHz region for the calami of feathe…
Bird feathers coupled to a waveguide in the 10- to 16-GHz region were associated with a substantial increase in microwave power collected in the forward direction and a decrease in radiation pattern beam width compared with measurements without the feather. T…
Cultured rabbit lenses exposed to pulsed or continuous wave S-band microwave radiation (10–15 min; 0–200 mW/cm^2) showed a significant decrease in total ascorbic acid 1–3 days after irradiation. However, when irradiated lenses were compared with matched contr…
