Three identical rectangular waveguide chambers made of aluminium were used for the two RFradiationexposure groups and the sham-exposed group. Exposure of 25 mice at a time was possible in one chamber. The exposure system was described in [Heikkinen et al., 2001].
Setup
The mice were kept in small cylindrical acrylic restrainers (inner diameter 32 mm, length adjustable) placed on a Styrofoam holder in the center of the cross section of the waveguide with their longitudinal axes perpendicular to the EF and to the direction of propagation.
