Human Magnetic Effects

Gibson, Moroney · 1974

Thirty-four subjects were exposed to weak constant vertical magnetic fields of about 5,000 gammas, a 10% increment over the ambient geomagnetic field, in a repeated-measures design with two sessions. Calculation attempts were significantly lower in the first trial of the field-on session than in the second trial, the field-off session showed no significant change, and the overall ANOVA across trials was significant.

SOME BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MICROWAVE IRRADIATION IN THE RAT

T. Daryl Hawkins et al. · 1973

In the lethality study, one hundred and seventy-four male Wistar rats were exposed to 3000 MHz microwave radiation, and the lethal energy density (LD50) increased with longer exposure durations. The lethal power density required for a lethal effect decreased as exposure duration increased. At each frequency, higher power levels resulted in shorter times to work stoppage. At all power levels which resulted in a complete cessation of performance, 1700 MHz produced the shortest stoppage times, while both higher and lower frequencies had progressively less influence.

OPERANT BEHAVIOR OF RHESUS MONKEYS IN THE PRESENCE OF EXTREMELY LOW FREQUENCY-LOW INTENSITY MAGNETIC AND ELECTRIC FIELDS: EXPERIMENT 2

John de Lorge · 1973

Two male rhesus monkeys were trained to perform fixed-interval, reaction-time, and match-to-sample tasks for food and water reinforcement. In the first phase they were exposed to a 45-Hz, 10-gauss magnetic field with an accompanying electric field for 13 sessions. In the second phase they were exposed to a 10-Hz, 10-gauss magnetic field with a 10-Hz electric field for 12 sessions. No significant behavioral changes were found during 45-Hz exposure, while 10-Hz exposure produced statistically significant but not clinically significant or reproducible effects, and the study concluded that low-intensity ELF fields did not unequivocally cause behavioral changes in nonhuman primates.
