A detailed description of the radial transmission line (RTL) irradiator and its environmental controls has been given in several publications (see reference articles).
Setup
The culture flasks were distributed angularly around the antenna with their centers located at a radius of 29.2 cm.
The flasks for simultaneous sham exposure were handled in the same way as the flasks exposed to RFradiation but RTLs were not connected to an RF field source.
