The influence of differently polarised microwave radiation on chromatin in human cells.

Purpose: To determine the possible biological effects of differently polarised microwave radiation on the chromatin state in human cells.

Materials And Methods: Isolated human buccal epithelium cells were irradiated by microwaves of frequency f = 35 GHz and surface power density E = 30 microW/cm(2). The state of chromatin in human cells was determined by methods of light and electron microscopy.
