Sensitivity of the rabbit's central nervous system to a continuous superhighfrequency electromagnetic field

Abstract

Unilateral 5 min irradiation of rabbits with the ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic fields caused various EEG changes in the majority of the animals. A graphic relationship was noted between the average latent period of EEG reactions of the bradyrhythmia-type and the flux density for the electromagnetic waves, 100 and 52 cm in length. The greatest sensitivity was manifested by the CNS of the rabbits to the fields with the wave length of 100 cm, a somewhat lower one—to the fields with the wave length of 52 cm, and the least—to the fields with the wave length of 12.5 cm.
