Abstract An improved design of the fluid
filled waveguide-exposure chamber is described for studying erects of microwave
radiation on cells in vitro. The system with a micropipette sample holder may
be used as a prototype to isolate the apparent nonthermal
factor of microwave radiation on cells in culture from those effects
resulting from cell temperature rise. This system also allows more precise
calibration of incident and absorbed microwave energies. Compared with
control, somatic cells of the Chinese hamster exhibited a lower rate of
growth and difference in morphology after 2450 MHz microwave radiation for 20
min at a power density of |
