Nine radial transmission line (RTL) exposure chambers were used, three for each exposure condition [Puranen et al.]. Each chamber consisted of two horizontal circular aluminium plates with 150 cm diameter and 15 cm separation.
Setup
24 truncated wedge-shaped polycarbonate cages, each containing an unrestrained rat, were placed in the chamber with their wider end near the absorbing material. A monopole antenna at the center of the lower plate generated a radial plane wave. The EF was vertical (perpendicular to the plates) and the MF was circumferential, parallel to the plates.
