View Original AbstractWeak microwave radiation boosted mouse immune cells by 130-150% during multi-day exposure at levels far below safety limits.
Plain English Summary
Russian researchers exposed mice to weak microwave radiation (8.15-18 GHz) for 24-72 hours and found their natural killer cells - immune cells that fight cancer and infections - became 130-150% more active. The immune boost lasted at least 24 hours after exposure ended, but shorter exposures of just a few hours showed no effect.
Study Details
The aim of this study is to investigate Stimulation of murine natural killer cells by weak electromagnetic waves in the centimeter range].
Irradiation with electromagnetic waves (8.15-18 GHz, 1 Hz within, 1 microW/cm2) in vivo increases th...
Microwave irradiation of animals in vivo for 3.5 and 5 h, and a short exposure of splenic cells in vitro did not affect the activity of natural killer cells.
