ID Number 1656
Study Type In Vitro
Model Millimeter wave exposure to primary and cultured cells and analysis of DNA damage.
Details

Human blood leukocytes and lymphocytes were isolated and exposed to 8.8 GHz MM waves (PW, 180 ns pulse width, 50 Hz pps) at an average SAR of 1.6 W/kg (peak during pulse 300 MW/kg). Analysis was performed via alkaline COMET assay. The authors report no evidence of DNA damage due to RF exposure. Other sutdies demonstrate DNA damage using high peak pulse millimeter wave exposure.
