Abstract

Rats (N = 16) exposed individually in circularly polarized waveguides to 970‐MHz electromagnetic radiation (SAR=2.5 mW/g, 22 h daily for 70 consecutive days) had significantly higher serum levels of triglycerides, albumin, and total protein compared with sham‐irradiated controls. No difference was observed in the weights, hematologic profile, or in vitro lymphocyte responses to mitogens between these two groups. The higher serum levels of triglycerides in radiofrequency‐radiation‐exposed rats suggest a non‐specific stress reaction.
