IMMUNOLOGICAL REACTIVITY OF ANIMALS IN PROLONGED IRRADIATION BY ULTRA HIGH FREQUENCY RADIOWAVES

I. S. Dronov, A. D. Kiritseva · 1972

Rabbits were exposed to UHF radiowaves at 50 microvolts/cm² and 10 microvolts/cm² for four hours daily over four months. Forty rabbits were used, with twenty controls, five at 10 microvolts/cm², and fifteen at 50 microvolts/cm² divided into three groups with different immunization timing. Immunobiological changes were assessed by phagocytic activity of neutrophils, specific antibody complement, and titer in blood serum.

Effect of Chronic Microwave Irradiation on the Blood Forming System of Guinea Pigs and Rabbits

S. Baranski · 1971

Researchers exposed 100 guinea pigs and 100 rabbits to continuous or pulsed 10 cm microwaves at 3.5 mW/cm power density for 3 hours daily over 3 months. Peripheral blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen were examined. Bone marrow erythroblasts showed abnormal chromatin structure, karyolysis, nuclear fragmentation, and abnormal mitoses with chromosomal bridges and clumping; identical abnormalities appeared in lymphocytes of spleen and lymph nodes.

MODIFICATIONS OF THE PERIPHERAL LEUKOGRAM BY THE INTERACTION OF THE BIOFIELD AND ARTIFICIAL ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD

P. JITARIU, C. SCHNELLER-PAVELESCU, ELENA CHERA · 1971

Researchers used a homogeneous group of 20 adult rabbits weighing 1700 to 2000 grams. The rabbits were exposed to a rectangular pulsating electromagnetic field with a one-second pause after three seconds of excitation for 10 consecutive days, each session lasting three minutes. Total leukocyte counts rose 12.158% after five exposures and 21.896% after ten exposures compared with controls. The white blood cell differential shifted with neutrophils decreasing while lymphocytes, monocytes, and basophils increased.

Étude des perturbations biologiques chez les techniciens O.R.T.F. dans certains champs électromagnétiques de haute fréquence

M. DEROCHE · 1971

No progressive diseases linked to the exposure were found. Reversible functional disturbances including fatigue, headaches, insomnia, muscle cramps, and memory difficulties were identified. Clinical tests on 17 technicians in Rennes showed normal blood pressure, blood sugar, sedimentation rate, blood count, and EEG except minor unexplained variations on three traces. Field measurements at the Metz-Luttange transmitter showed levels from 0.001 to 2.22 mW/cm² in personnel areas.

On the Etiology of Disorders Caused by Combined Ultrahigh Frequency Electromagnetic Waves

Petrov IR · 1968

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.

THE FUNCTIONAL CONDITION OF THE ADRENAL CORTEX IN SHIP SPECIALISTS WHO ARE SUBJECTED TO THE ACTION OF A SUPER-HIGH FREQUENCY FIELD

B.G. AFANAS-YEV, I.M. Suvorov · 1968

Researchers studied 38 radio operators with 200 to 1800 hours of exposure and 22 controls under similar conditions. They assessed adrenal cortex function by measuring urinary 17-ketosteroids, 17-oxycorticosteroids, and sodium-potassium ratio. No reliable difference was found in sodium-potassium coefficient between exposed and control groups. Steroid excretion did not differ between operators with more than 300 hours and less than 200 hours of exposure. The androgenic, glucocorticoid, and mineralocorticoid functions of the adrenal cortex did not differ from the norm in the persons who were investigated.
