Study Type In Vivo
Model 3 GHz (PW) exposure to mice and analysis of immune function
Details

Kunming mice were exposed to radar 3 GHz (PW-937 Hz pulse repetition rate, 1.2 usec pulse width) MW for 60 min/day for 2 days at field intensities of up to 12 mW/cm2 in an anechoic chamber. Exposure resulted in an increased immune response to injected sheep red blood cells in young and adult (but not infant) mice. The authors suggest MW exposure may stimulate immune function and have a possible role in cancer therapy.
