Four WPCs were placed into two incubators (one for RF and one for sham exposure using blind procedure). Each WPC was shielded by a 40 x 40 x 20 cm metal grid box and four blocks of foam absorber material (15 dB). The absence of any interference between the two WPCs located in the same incubator was confirmed by measurement.
Setup
The WPCs consisted of two parallel plates short-circuited at the edge at four points [Laval et al., 2002]. Four Petri dishes (3.5 cm in diameter) were placed in each WPC, one of them filled only with medium for monitoring temperature. A water spiral plate jacket was positioned on the external faces of both plates of the WPC with circulating water maintaining a temperature of 37 °C in the medium.
