Abstract The effects of low level microwave
radiation (3-4 mW/cm²- 2450 MHz) during 4 and 8 h on the WISTAR Rat digestive
transit has been studied. The results showed no effect after 4 h radiation
and an acceleration of the digestive transit after 8 h of radiation (p <
.001). The acceleration of the digestive transit was still observed after 24
h (p < .001). 60-90 s after radiation time the rectal temperature of
radiated animals did not differ from the controls. |
