✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A significant increase was observed in the circulating antibody titers of mice exposed to 9‐GHz pulsed microwaves at an average power density of 10 mW/ cm^2^, two hours per day for five days compared with sham‐irradiated animals. The mice were previously immunized with type III pneumococcal polysaccharide. Following irradiation, a portion of the immunized animals were challenged with virulent ^Streptococcus pneumoniae^, type III. Ten days after challenge, mortality was essentially the same in the two groups, but during the ten day period, there was a noticeable increase in the survival time of the irradiated animals compared with the sham‐irradiated animals, suggesting that the increased circulating antibody response afforded some degree of temporary protection to the animals.

Irradiation by pulsed microwaves (9.4 GHz, 1 ps pulses at 1 ,OOO/s), both with and without concurrent amplitude modulation (AM) by a sinusoid at discrete frequencies between 14 and 41 MHz, was assessed for effects on the immune system of Balb/C mice.

## Abstract Microwave‐induced corneal endothelial damage was reported to have a low threshold (2.6 W/kg), and vasoactive ophthalmologic medications lowered the threshold by a factor of 10–0.26 W/kg. In an attempt to confirm these observations, four adult male Rhesus monkeys (__Macaca mulatta__) und
