Behavioral Effects of Ultra High Frequency Radio Waves: Abstracts

Susan Korbel · 1966

In a 20-day experiment, rats receiving 60 minutes of daily radiation were significantly less active than controls during the final four days. At a higher audiogenic seizure test intensity of 140 db, exposed rats had lower seizure thresholds and longer seizure durations. Older rats needed 7 to 12 extra days for effects to appear, lower frequencies had greater impact on activity, and effects persisted for four to six days after exposure stopped.

SOME BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MICROWAVE ENERGY

Carl M. Olsen, Clifford L. Drake, Stuart L. Bunch · 1966

Spores of Fusarium solani f. phaseoli treated with microwaves germinated on an "all-or-nothing" basis, while water bath treatment gave a conventional germination pattern. Microwave treatment at 2450 MHz of 0.1N NaOH solution produced hydrogen peroxide, whereas water bath heating to the same temperature did not. Microwave finish-drying of potato chips resulted in higher amounts of triglycerides, diglycerides, and longer chain aldehydes in the extracted oil. Mesophilic bacteria were reduced up to 99% and viable spores of Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Rhizopus were also reduced, while Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells heated to 56°C by microwaves had a respiration rate of 0.57 ul 02/min compared with 2.88 ul 02/min for water bath heating at the same temperature.

Studies on the Effect of Radio-Frequency Waves on Biological Macromolecules

Shiro Takashima · 1966

Researchers irradiated alcohol dehydrogenase at 200 volts peak-to-peak across frequencies from 1 to 60 Mc/s. Enzyme activity was measured by the rate of DPN reduction, while DNA structure was assessed by optical density at 260 mu and viscosity. Optical density and viscosity of irradiated DNA showed no significant difference from control samples. The ratio of the first-order rate constant for irradiated versus control alcohol dehydrogenase was nearly unity, indicating no change in activity.
