この研究は、出芽酵母(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)の細胞増殖に対するマイクロ波照射の影響を調べた。標準化ミリ波導波管に結合したばく露チャンバには、サーモスタットおよび細胞観察のための走査型顕微鏡のステージに取り付けられた。周波数は41.688〜41.707 GHz、8 kHz変調方形波を用い、ばく露時間は10時間連続で行なった。ばく露を受ける細胞は単層培養された。結果として、マイクロ波ばく露は、酵母の細胞増殖速度を、周波数と強度に依存する形で変化させた;細胞増殖は、10〜20%の範囲で増加または減少した、と報告している。

チャンバの詳細 The thermostatted metallic irradiation chamber, coupled by a flexible waveguide with a standardised millimeter wave set-up [Grundler et al., 1983], was mounted on the stage of a scanning microscope.
ばく露装置の詳細 The radiation was guided through a tapered gold-coated quartz needle broadened by quartz carrier plates on both sides and radiated out of a slot (0.4 mm x 1.7 mm) on which the cells were spread in a monolayer. Yeast cells were fixed to the lower surface of a thin transparent agar layer (0.2 mm) filling the inner part of a smaller plastic ring. The agar layer and the cells rested on the quartz needle and the carrier plates. At the opposite surface of the quartz needle, a broader opening for microscopic viewing was covered with a fine metallic mesh suppressing RF leakage.
Additional information The MW field in the radiating slot was monomodal, and the EF was polarized in the y direction, surrounded by the MF in the x-z plane.
