Researchers exposed cats to a low-frequency modulated pulse electromagnetic field at 5 to 7 cycles per second with intensity up to 300 oersted. The exposure caused a state of drowsiness or sleep in the cats.

The study examined disorders caused by combined ultrahigh frequency electromagnetic waves, using measurement of electromagnetic fields, biological monitoring, and epidemiological approaches. Effects were observed in human subjects and animal models. Exposure to these fields was found to lead to changes in biological systems, including alterations in cellular and molecular structures. Specific findings included impacts on nervous system function, DNA damage, and other physiological responses.

Researchers used 65 male rabbits, exposing one group to a single 20-minute pulse-modulated 10 cm microwave at 20 mW/cm² and another group to chronic 3-hour daily sessions totaling 70–80 hours at 7 mW/cm². In single-exposure rabbits pretreated with phenactil, microwaves still produced EEG desynchronization; cardiazole triggered a threshold reaction at a lower dose, while strychnine evoked a weaker spike response than in controls. Chronic exposure produced persistent EEG desynchronization with high amplitude and reduced phenactil synchronization. Cardiazole caused violent convulsions at 3 mg/kg and strychnine produced spikes in most animals with two deaths.

Researchers stimulated blue crab nerves with a 5 sec on, 5 sec off pattern for 4 minutes at 20 pulses per second. They detected micron-wavelength emission from the live nerves using a Barnes R-8T1 infrared radiometer. The emission magnitude was 3 X 10-° w from a 0.5 mm? nerve surface or 6 uw/cm?, and the chance probability was 0.008.

Researchers implanted chronic bipolar electrodes in the centre median and ventralis anterior thalamic nuclei of squirrel and stump-tail Macaque monkeys. They applied rectangular current pulses of 70 Hz and 3 ms duration between the inion and nasion to induce electroanesthesia. As current intensity increased, the amplitude of depth evoked potentials decreased gradually and disappeared at anesthesia levels sufficient for surgery. Peripheral sensory responses were similarly depressed, and cross-thalamic responses vanished when surface responses disappeared.
