摘要
In the military environment, microwaves are mainly used by radars. The general public applications of microwaves are essentially the cellular phone and the microwave oven, with exposure to TV signals and FM radio. A few years ago, articles in the national and international press expressed concern about cancer incidences among radar technicians and people housed in the neighborhood of an antenna base station. In this study, a possible causal link between radar radiation and the physiological and cellular changes is being evaluated by an epidemiological animal study on 120 rats, for 1 year. In order to assess the possible biological long-term effects of microwaves, we selected among others the following blood parameters: lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, erythrocytes and platelets. A quantitative study will be performed in a first step.
