Study Type In Vitro
Model 2450 MHz (CW, PW) exposure to chicken hearts and analysis of heartbeat
Details

Isolated chicken hearts (9-12 days old) were exposed to 2450 MHz (CW, PW) MW a power density of 3 mW/cm2 in small petri dishes and analyzed for electrical heart signal using a glass pipet inserted into the sinoatrial node and analysis with a Berg-Fourier analyzer. Exposure to 2450 MHz PW was reported to cause heartbeat to lock into the modulation frequency, whereas exposure to 2450 MHz CW induced slight bradycardia
