The Effect of Microwave on Y-Maze Learning in the White Rat

Roger C. Nealeigh et al. · 1971

Twenty female Sprague-Dawley rats about 90 days old were randomly assigned to a control group and a microwave-irradiated group. The microwave exposures consisted of 2.45 GHz continuous wave irradiation for 20 minutes at a maximum power density of 50 mw/cm*. Performance of white rats in a Y-maze learning task was altered by exposures of 2.45 GHz microwaves at a measured maximum level of 50 mW/cm*.

Magnetic Fields and the Number of Blood Platelets

Madeleine F. Barnothy, Jeno M. Barnothy · 1970

Researchers exposed female DBA/J2 mice to a 9,000 magnetic field for 20 days. During exposure, platelet numbers increased by 25+3 per cent early on but the difference from controls vanished by the tenth day. After removal from the field, platelet numbers increased again, repeating the early pattern.

THE EFFECTS OF LOW LEVEL MICROWAVE IRRADIATION UPON REFLEXIVE, OPERANT, AND DISCRIMINATION BEHAVIORS OF THE RAT

Nancy Williams King · 1969

Low-level irradiation (1.5–1.7 mw/gm) reduced responding when correlated with reinforcement or extinction but had no reliable effect during uncorrelated presentations. Low-level microwave irradiation did not act as a discriminative stimulus, although acoustic and visual stimuli were well discriminated. High-level irradiation improved tone discrimination performance for rats where the tone signaled reinforcement, and caused curare-like immobility and elevated rectal temperatures.
