Changes in the morphological state of the blood brought about by UHF

Lysina, G. G. · 1965

The exposed workers were grouped by exposure duration and by intensity relative to the permissible threshold. Erythrocyte content did not change significantly (p > 0.5) in the exposed group. Reticulocytes were increased in 14% of exposed subjects compared with 8.7% of controls. Basophile granules increased quantitatively and erythrocyte sedimentation was slowed in 30% of cases.

Comparative Studies on 1285 and 2800 Mc/sec Pulsed Microwaves

Sol M. Michaelson et al. · 1965

Researchers exposed adult mongrel dogs to pulsed microwaves at 1285 Mc/sec and 2800 Mc/sec at various power densities. Body weight loss correlated directly with power density and was similar at both frequencies at comparable intensities. At 1285 Mc/sec, rectal temperature rose markedly at 100 mW/cm² during the first week then moderated, with progressive lowering of pre-exposure temperatures suggesting adaptation.

Human response to very low-frequency electromagnetic energy

Frey AH · 1963

Researchers measured alternating electric fields at a VLF transmitter site operating at 14.7 kc with 1100 kw radiated power. At the tower top center the field was 30,000 volts per meter and tingling occurred on bare metal and sometimes on painted metal. At the ladder top the field reached 989,000 volts per meter, producing strong shocks comparable to a 115 volts ac line and causing reflex withdrawal without muscle freezing.

Infrared and Microwave Effects on Skin Heating and Temperature Sensation

E. HENDLER, J. D. HARDY · 1960

Researchers exposed the forehead area of seven subjects to controlled heating while measuring skin temperature radiometrically. Temperature sensation reports correlated best with the rate of change of skin temperature. Warmth threshold occurred at a skin temperature rise rate of 0.001°C/second and cool threshold at a fall rate of 0.005° °C/second. Microwave irradiation at about 17 mW/cm² produced a linear skin temperature increase of 0.037°C/second for the first 30 seconds. Warmth sensation persisted after microwave exposure ended, which the authors attributed to slowly dissipated heat retained in the tissues.
