The Reaction of Luminous Bacteria to Microwave Radiation Exposures in the Frequency Range of 2608.7-3082.3 Mc

Donald E. Barber · 1962

The study used the luminescent bacterium Photobacterium fischeri exposed to continuous-wave microwaves at 12.8 Mc intervals between 2608.7 and 3082.3 Mc. Initial measurements suggested reduced luminescence in exposed samples, but the difference was traced to Pseudomonas contamination from distilled water used to rinse the apparatus. After sterilizing the system and using sterile water, no significant difference in luminescence between exposed and control suspensions was observed 20 to 24 hours post-exposure.

AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MICROWAVE RADIATION IN RELATION TO THE EYE

Russell L. Carpenter · 1962

Researchers exposed rabbit eyes to continuous wave or pulsed wave microwave radiation at frequencies of 2450 mc, 8236 mc, 9375 mc, and 10,050 mc. Single exposures produced opacities in the posterior cortex at 2450 mc and in the anterior cortex at the higher frequencies. Biochemical changes included an early decrease in lens ascorbic acid content and water accumulation as opacities developed. The study found evidence of non-thermal effects on the lens in addition to thermal effects.

THE EFFECTS OF RADAR ON THE HUMAN BODY

John J. Turner · 1962

The document reviews published papers on radio frequency radiation effects on biological subjects. It gives separate coverage to the susceptibility of the head, eye, and testis to RF radiation. It also discusses ionizing radiation produced by RF generating equipment. The document draws no conclusions and makes no recommendations.

EFFECTS OF MICROWAVE RADIATION ON ACTIVITY LEVEL OF RATS

SUZY EAKIN, WILLIAM D. THOMPSON · 1962

A sweep generator swept frequencies from 450 to 67965 mc and directed UHF waves at five rat cages placed 53.0 inches away to compare photo-cell activity with spontaneous activity measured immediately after exposure. Activity was detected by a light source and photo-electric cell in each cage, with counters automatically recording activity rates. Cages measured 18 inches long, 12 inches wide, and 18 inches high, with wire screen sides and hardware cloth floors. On the final day, radiation treatment yielded F = 2.07 with P < .93.
