The effects of exposure to sublethal levels of microwaves were studied. Young albino rats of both sexes were exposed for 60 days to 7.5-GHz microwaves (1.0-KHz square wave modulation, average power 0.6 mW/cm2) for 3 h daily. During and after microwave exposure several physiological parameters were measured in both control and exposed animals. It was found that the animals exposed to microwaves tended to eat and drink less and thus showed a smaller gain in body weight. Some of the hematological parameters and organ weights were also significantly different. It is proposed that a nonspecific stress response due to microwave exposure and mediated through the central nervous system is responsible for the observed physiological changes.
研究了暴露于亚致死剂量微波的影响。将雌雄白化幼鼠每天暴露于7.5GHz微波（1.0kHz方波调制，平均功率0.6mW/cm²）3小时，持续60天。在微波暴露期间和之后，对对照组和暴露组动物都测量了几个生理参数。发现暴露于微波的动物往往进食和饮水较少，因此体重增加较小。一些血液学参数和器官重量也有显著差异。有人提出，微波暴露引起的、通过中枢神经系统介导的非特异性应激反应是观察到的生理变化的原因。
