Distance between exposed object and exposure source
385 mm
Chamber
The ventilated exposure box, made of plywood and covered with a hood, was completely shielded on the outside with an 0.1-mm aluminium foil and covered on the inside with flat absorber material. The box consisted of two compartments separated by a glass plate. The lower one contained the antenna, and the upper one received the polystyrene cage of 0.37 x 0.24 x 0.175 cm with three animals inside.
In the first 12 experiments, real and sham exposures had to be carried out sequentially since only one box was available. In the following experiments (13-26), real and sham exposures were carried out simultaneously.
