Occupational Aspects of Non-Ionizing Radiant Energy Exposure—Thresholds and Standards

Sol M. Michaelson · 1970

The author reviews the pathophysiology of exposure to ultraviolet, infrared, coherent electromagnetic radiation (laser), microwaves, and radio-frequency radiation, including critical organs and thresholds. The paper discusses the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968 and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, which prompted renewed interest in biological effects of electromagnetic radiation.

Microwave Irradiation of Potato-Waste Water

M. A. K. Hamid, W. M. Boerner, S. C. Tong · 1970

Researchers exposed potato-waste water to 2.45 GHz microwaves at 1.2 kW for 8 to 18 seconds in a rectangular waveguide. Bacterial counts decreased logarithmically with irradiation time. Chemical oxygen demand was higher in irradiated samples than in controls. The authors hypothesized that microwaves may stimulate aerobic bacteria and reduce photosynthetic bacteria, but noted these observations need confirmation.
