Resonant Cellular Effects of Low Intensity Microwaves

Extremely high frequency electromagnetic fields at low power density do not affect the division of exponential phase Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells

“…Therefore, we can exclude a consistently significant effect of EHF-EMF exposure on the variability of individual cell cycle lengths. The conclusions presented here are obviously different from those of previous studies [Grundler et al, 1988;Grundler, 1989Grundler and Keilmann, 1989] that we intended to confirm. A number of possible reasons for this difference are discussed below.…”

“…This difference cannot be easily assessed by simple and colleagues [Grundler et al, 1988;Grundler, 1989, visual inspection. The figure shows schematically the behavior 1982; Grundler and Keilmann, 1989] as a basis for of the cells and the nucleus during the mitotic cell cycle.…”

“…An independent reproduction of this experiment was attempted but failed [Furia et al, 1986]. In a second, improved, experimental setup, cells were exposed to EHF-EMF on agar slabs [Grundler and Abmayr, 1983;Grundler et al, 1988;Grundler, 1989;Grundler and Keilmann, 1989]. Frequency-dependent changes of the division rate with enhancement up to 108% and inhibition down to 74% or 62% were observed in the range of 41.690 GHz to …”

Evaluation of the biological effects of police radar RAMER 7F

“…Indirect proof of these interactions is contactless acupuncture (1): better effects are obtained by an extremely low output of millimeter waves from electrodes drawn close to the acupuncture points. Furthermore, transfer of information between cells on frequencies in the millimeter range has been hypothesized (2,3). There has been much research in this field (4)(5)(6).…”
