A Simple Method for Indicating the Electric Field Distribution in a Microwave Oven

S. Washisu, I. Fukai · 1980

Toner particles melt and adhere to warmed portions of a bakelite plate while unheated particles can be removed by tapping. Partially melted toner corresponded to approximately 72°C and completely melted toner to 120°C temperature rise. Toner removed from the test plate could be reused making the method low cost compared to liquid media.

The Increased Passive Efflux of Sodium and Rubidium from Rabbit Erythrocytes by Microwave Radiation

R. B. Olcerst et al. · 1980

Without radiation, both ions showed four linear regions in Arrhenius plots with transitions at 8-13°C, 22.5°C, and 36°C. Microwave exposure increased efflux only at these transition temperatures, and at 22.5°C the efflux was significantly greater than a thermal prediction at all three absorption rates but did not rise monotonically with power.

ETUDE ET MODELISATION DE SONDES COAXIALES ADAPTEES A LA MESURE DE PERMITTIVITE "IN VIVO" DE MILIEUX BIOLOGIQUES DANS LA BANDE HYPERFREQUENCE

André CASTELAIN et al. · 1980

The researchers developed a theoretical approach for microcoaxial probes with numerical simulations covering complex permittivity values where the real part ranges from 2 to 80 and the imaginary part from 2 to 40. Experimental validation used polar liquids with dielectric properties similar to biological tissues and gel phantoms employed in microwave hyperthermia studies. Good agreement between experimental and numerical results was found across the 1-12 GHz frequency range, allowing a first interpretation of measurements on real biological media.

MICROWAVE THERMOGRAPHY ; THE MODELING OF PROBES ; AN APPROACH TOWARD THERMAL PATTERN RECOGNITION

D.D. Nguyen et al. · 1980

They used an active process with a coherent microwave signal fed into tissues and a passive process estimating thermal noise power from tissues reaching the probe. They verified that probe-tissue matching improves when the permittivities of the probe dielectric and tissue are closer. Experiments with a polythene pipe filled with warm water in a water tank showed good agreement between computed and experimental thermal signatures.

Nonionizing electromagnetic radiation associated with video-display terminals

R. C. Petersen, M. M. Weiss, G. Minneci · 1980

Detected emissions included sweep frequencies, clock frequencies, and their harmonics, but all levels were far below exposure standards. No microwave emissions above 1GHz were found associated with any terminal. The authors concluded there is no evidence that VDT emission levels cause deleterious health effects.

Factors affecting sperm motility. III. Influence of visible light and other electromagnetic radiations on human sperm velocity and survival

Unknown authors · 1980

Researchers exposed semen specimens from fertile and infertile patients to visible light, UV light, x-rays, and high-frequency radio waves. Sperm motility was analyzed before, during, and after irradiation using the multiple exposure photography method. No significant difference was found between controls and specimens exposed to various doses of visible light, UV light, and x-rays either immediately or several hours after exposure. High-frequency radio waves had a deleterious influence on human spermatozoa.

Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation Safety: A Program of Federal Activities Related to Biological Effects of Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation (0 - 300 GHz)

Interagency Task Force on Biological Effects of Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation et al. · 1979

The BENER Task Force produced this document describing a coordinated federal program for nonionizing electromagnetic radiation safety. The program's goal is to acquire and apply information needed as a basis for control measures that protect human health and the environment while permitting beneficial uses of nonionizing electromagnetic radiation. The task force identified seven interrelated objectives that must be accomplished to achieve this goal. The task force particularly encouraged growth in research on possible effects on behavior, the central nervous system, the immune system, growth and development, and teratology, with special emphasis on long-term low-level studies and epidemiology.
