Abstract Effects of microwaves
(continuous wave, frequency 2450 MHz, rate of energy absorption 15.5 mW/g, irradiation
time 60 min) on isolated subesophageal ganglia of Helix lucorum snail were
studied. During exposure a constant temperature of the solution in which the
ganglia were bathed was maintained. It was found that such an exposure led to
a decrease in the concentration of nucleic acids in snail neurons as well as
to an increase of nuclear area and to dimunition of cytoplasmic area. |
