Biological effects of low-level (producing nonsignificant thermal induction) microwave or radiofrequency radiation have been extensively r e p ~r t e d . l -~ Such low-level biological responses are suggestive of molecular or membrane interactions leading to disruption of function. This is particula

The dielectric properties of aqueous solutions of DNA were measured at frequencies ranging from 0.1 to 12 GHz. The results are analyzed using the Maxwell mixture theory and yield a value for the hydration of the DNA of about 0.4 g/g, which is in the range ohserved in other investigations. No evidenc
Recently one of us has shown that the ultrasonic absorption of DNA solutions goes through a well-defined maximum when the pH is changed.1 This maximum occurs, independently of the ultrasonic frequency, at pH = 11.9, that is, at a pH close to that which corresponds to the mid-point of the denaturatio
Microwave conductivity and Raman spectroscopy were applied to study the influence of light and thermal annealing on porous TiO 2 properties. Microwave absorption in porous TiO 2 (anatase) showed an anomalous behaviour in the presence of light excitation (at 514 nm, i.e. below, or 356 nm, i.e. above
