Exposure details   Modulator effects of L-carnitine and selenium on wireless devices (2.45 GHz)-induced oxidative stress and electroencephalography records in brain of rat. by Naziroglu M, Gümral N published in: Int J Radiat Biol 2009; 85 (8): 680 - 689 General information: animals were divided into five groups: i) cage control ii)sham control iii) exposure to EMF iv) exposure to EMF + selenium v) exposure to EMF + L-carnitine Exposure 1: Main characteristics frequency: 2.45 GHz type of field: electromagnetic field Modulation type of modulation: pulsed (PW) pulse repetition rate: 217 Hz Exposure setup exposure source/structure: half-wave antenna exposure time pattern: continuous for 60 min/day, for 28 days setup details: rats kept in 15 cm long cylindrical constrainers with a diameter of 5 cm so that the rats' noses were in close contact with the antenna; exposure system positioned inside a faraday cage sham: sham exposure was performed Exposure parameters parameter: value: type: method: averaging mass: remark: power  2 W  max value  -  -  -  SAR  0.1 W/kg  average over mass  -  whole body  -  SAR  1.73 W/kg  average over mass  calculated  brain  -  Return to general data Glossary: animals, antenna, brain, cage control, EMF, exposure, Faraday cage, GHz, Hz, L-carnitine, power, pulsed, pulse repetition rate, PW, rats, SAR, selenium, sham exposure
