Male C3H mice were exposed in an anechoic chamber to 2.45 GHz microwave radiation. The exposures ranged from 1000 Wm-2 for 5 min to 100 Wm-2 for 260 min, giving dose rates to the testis ranging from 66 Wkg-1 to 7 Wkg-1. The mice were killed six days later and the testes examined histologically. Quantitatively, no significant effects were seen on cells identified as X-ray sensitive (spermatogonia type B) or heat sensitive (early primary spermatocytes and late primary and secondary spermatocytes) or on the sperm count. Extrapolation of these results to man would suggest that acute exposure to the Maximum Permissible Exposure level of 100 Wm-2 has no effect on the testes in the ranges 1 to 3.5 MHz and 300 MHz to 100 GHz. There was insufficient data to comment on other frequencies.
雄性C3H小鼠在消声室内暴露于2.45 GHz微波辐射。暴露强度范围从1000 Wm-2持续5分钟到100 Wm-2持续260分钟，睾丸的剂量率范围从66 Wkg-1到7 Wkg-1。六天后处死小鼠，并对睾丸进行组织学检查。从数量上看，未观察到对被确定为对X射线敏感（B型精原细胞）或对热敏感（早期初级精母细胞以及晚期初级和次级精母细胞）的细胞或精子计数有显著影响。将这些结果外推至人类表明，急性暴露于100 Wm-2的最大允许暴露水平对1至3.5 MHz以及300 MHz至100 GHz范围内的睾丸没有影响。没有足够的数据对其他频率进行评论。
