Abstract

Abstract Summary

Overview

This study reviews the effects of low-level microwave (MW) radiation, identifying the physical mechanisms and biological implications based on existing research.

Findings

• The rotation of dipolar molecules leads to the polarization of the dielectric medium and restructuring of hydrogen bonds among the molecules.
• This restructuring decreases viscosity and enhances diffusion while maintaining constant temperature.
• The effects of microwave radiation at the MW frequency are supported by EMF theory and experimental results, showing significant biological consequences that differ from conventional thermal effects.

Conclusion

The study concludes that MW radiation induces specific non-thermal effects that could pose potential consequences on biological tissues and materials, which are not seen with standard heating. This confirms the need for careful consideration of health risks associated with electromagnetic field exposure.
