Study Type		In Vivo
Model		2450 MHz (CW) exposure to rabbits and analysis of general pathology
Details		New Zealand rabbits were exposed to 2450 MHz (CW) microwaves 7 hr/day, 5 days/wk for 13 wks at an SAR of either 0.7 W/kg in the back (0.5 W/kg in the head) or 7 W/kg in the back (5.5 W/kg in the head) using a horn antenna. No effects were observed on body mass, cataract formation, blood chemistry, blood protein, lymphocyte activation, or organ and tissue pathology. At the highest level of exposure the only significant effect was a decrease in food consumption.
