This in vitro study exposed yeast suspensions to 2.45 GHz near-field microwave radiation at 2 cm and 4 cm for 20 or 60 minutes. It reports oxidative-stress-related changes (reduced antioxidant activity with increased membrane permeability) after 20 minutes at 2 cm, an effect not reproduced by conventional heating. The study also reports a trend toward increased DNA damage under both exposure conditions and mild membrane permeability changes after 60 minutes at 4 cm.

This animal experiment examined hematopoietic and immune-related indicators in mice after repeated exposure to low-intensity microwave radiation. Exposure involved monochromatic pulsed fields in the 2.27–2.78 GHz range with average power flux density of 60 μW/cm² and doses of 0.086–0.86 J/g. The authors report cumulative biological effects consistent with a stress-like adaptive reaction, based on changes in bone marrow, spleen CFU-S measures, erythrocyte hemolytic resistance, and thymus metrics.
