View Original AbstractMice exposed to 900 MHz microwaves showed 1.5-day and 3.7-day wound-healing delays, higher yeast loads in skin lesions at days 5, 7 and 9, and greater mortality after systemic Candida challenge.
Plain English Summary
Exposed mice showed 1.5-day and 3.7-day delays in wound healing at stage two. Exposed mice also had higher yeast loads in skin lesions at days 5, 7 and 9 and were more likely to die after systemic Candida challenge, with higher kidney yeast counts.
Why This Matters
The study aimed to survey the effects of long-term 900 MHz microwave exposure on experimentally induced cutaneous candidiasis. Long-term exposure led to prolonged skin wounds, increased susceptibility to systemic infection, and higher microorganism counts in internal tissues.
Exposure Information
Specific exposure levels were not quantified in this study. The study examined exposure from: 900 MHz Duration: 6 h per day and 7 d per week
Study Details
The current study was aimed to survey the effects of long-term 900 MHz microwave exposure of mice on experimentally induced cutaneous candidiasis.
Forty inbred, male, BALB/c mice were randomly divided into four groups. Cutaneous lesions with Candi...
900 MHz microwave exposed mice had 1.5 day and 3.7 day delays on wound healing in stages two. Live C...
In collection, long-term 900 MHz radiation exposure of mice led to longevity of skin wounds and susceptibility of the animals to systemic challenge and higher incidences of microorganisms in internal tissues.
