In 2072 rats, thresholds of power density and irradiation duration were obtained that produced no more than 0.1% destruction. The ratio/speed of destruction versus regeneration depended on power density and followed an exponential relationship. Compared with …

At higher microwave dose rates (>10 mW/g), SMR decreased in some cases at 20°C and 24°C. At 35°C, high-level microwave dosing increased SMR over sham. A possible trend toward increased SMR during and after low-level (1.6 mW/g) exposure was noted at 24°C and 3…
Exposure to 10,000 MHz microwave radiation at 0.58 mW/cm2 for 30–120 min was associated with a 30–60% decrease in the bacteria’s ability to produce tumors on potato and turnip disks. The exposure did not affect bacterial viability or attachment to a tumor-bin…
Repeated exposures to 3100 MHz pulsed radiation were associated with degenerative ultrastructural changes in retinal neurons and reactive changes in glial cells detectable by electron microscopy. A single exposure combined with induced 70–100% blood-pressure …
In rats and rabbits exposed to 2375 ± 50 MHz in absorbent chambers, microwave radiation at 10, 50, and 500 µW/cm2 for 30 days (7 hr/day) was reported to cause changes in bioelectric brain activity and behavioral, immunological, and cytochemical reactions. At …
Low-level microwave radiation (3–4 mW/cm2 at 2450 MHz) showed no effect on digestive transit after 4 hours, but accelerated digestive transit after 8 hours (p<.001), with acceleration still observed 24 hours later (p<.001). Rectal temperature measured 60–90 s…
In rats, low-intensity pulsed microwave radiation (average power density 1 mW/cm^2) potentiated the response-rate-increasing effects of chlordiazepoxide. The abstract states the microwave exposure alone had no apparent behavioral effects, but it modified the …
In sartorius muscle cells from frogs exposed chronically to pulsed 2.88 GHz microwaves (10 mW/cm2, 0.1 h daily, up to 100 days), the temperature dependence of measured passive and active electrical parameters (10–30 °C) was not altered compared with controls.…
The article discusses increasing community exposure to microwave radiation and notes that East European countries report adverse effects at exposure levels lower than those permitted in Western countries. It emphasizes the need for epidemiologic studies in hu…
The paper provides a comprehensive review of basic biophysical interaction mechanisms between radiofrequency and microwave radiation (10 MHz to 300 GHz) and biological systems, discussing interactions at molecular, cellular, and macroscopic levels.
Recent publications are selectively reviewed on radio and microwave interactions with biological systems, emphasizing low-level effects at or below accepted safety standards. The reviewed information is used to examine the adequacy of existing emission and ex…
The paper hypothesizes that solid-state plasma could occur in organic (biological) semiconductors and discusses conditions/parameters for such plasma in biological solid structures. It proposes that microwave radiation may support or damp plasma oscillations,…
Pulse-modulated microwave radiation produced auditory responses in cats that closely resembled responses evoked by an acoustic pulse. Preliminary results are reported using vertex skull electrodes after successive coagulative lesions in specific auditory brai…
The authors developed miniature anechoic chambers enabling individual chronic microwave or sham exposure of animals under controlled environmental conditions. Field patterns were reported to correspond closely to those in large anechoic chambers; measurements…
