Microwave-induced increase of water and conductivity in submaxillary salivary gland of rats

掲載誌: Bioelectromagnetics 1981; 2 (1): 51-60

この研究は、成獣オスのラットを用い、顎下唾液腺(SSG)および他の組織における含水率および導電率(20kHzにおける)に対するマイクロ波ばく露パルス変調された2880MHz;パルス幅1.5μ秒、パルス繰返し周波数1000Hz)および従来的な熱ばく露(40℃)の影響を比較した。マイクロ波ばく露擬似ばく露、熱ばく露は全て、一度に1匹ずつ実施した。実験の第1シリーズは、80匹のラットが、30分間、マイクロ波ばく露を受けた。SARは、4.2,6.3,6.8,8.4,10.8または12.6W / kgとした。50匹のラットが同様の環境条件下で擬似ばく露を受けた。第2シリーズでは、10匹のラット擬似ばく露を受けた。33匹のラットが、SAR 9.5W / kgで、15、30、60分間のばく露を受け、32匹のラットは、同じ各時間、40℃の熱輻射ばく露を受けた。その結果、第1シリーズのラットでは、4.2W / kgのSARで結腸温度が有意に上昇し、6.3W / kg以上ではSSGの含水量および導電率が有意に上昇した;第2シリーズでは、15分および30分のマイクロ波ばく露後の結腸温度上昇およびSSG含水量増加は、熱ばく露後のものより大きく、また、SSG導電率は、熱ばく露では有意に低下し、マイクロ波ばく露では有意に上昇した、と報告している。

研究目的(著者による)

Hypersalivation is an important mechanism for heat dissipation by animals without sweat glands during hyperthermia. The water content and conductivity in submaxillary salivary glands and in other tissues were examined in rats exposed to microwaves or to conventional heat at 40°C.

研究の主なアウトカム(著者による)

1) In animals exposed to microwaves colonic temperature was elevated significantly at a SAR of 4.2 W/kg, while water content and conductivity in submaxillary salivary gland increased significantly at SAR values of 6.3 W/kg and higher.
2) Higher colonic temperatures and greater increase in the water content of submaxillary salivary gland were revealed in animals after 15 or 30 min exposures to microwaves at a SAR of 9.5 W/kg than were found in animals exposed to heat at 40°C. Also, submaxillary salivary gland conductivity was significantly depressed by heat and significantly increased by microwaves after irradiation for 15 or 30 min.
3) The data support the hypothesis that water content and conductivity of submaxillary salivary gland of rats can be used as a sensitive specific test of a microwave induced thermal response.
