32 pregnantrats and after delivery 96 male pups (the female pups were excluded from the study) were equally divided into 4 groups: 1.) cage stress (sham exposure and/or cage control, contradictory information), 2.) exposure to 2.45 GHz, 3.) exposure to 900 MHz and 4.) exposure to 1800 MHz. From each group, 8 pups were killed and examined at an age of 4, 5 and 6 weeks. After delivery, the dams were not further exposed and excluded from the study. The levels of trace elements were measured because they often act as cofactors for antioxidativeenzymes and are involved in processes preventing oxidative stress.
Distance between exposed object and exposure source
25 cm
Chamber
rats were placed in the cylindrical restrainer (12 rats simultaneously) with the head directed to the antenna
Setup
exposure system was kept in a specific room that contained plastic furniture such as tables and chairs for protecting the cells from possible radiation reflection, walls of the room were completely covered by chromium-nickel sheets to prevent possible external telemetricexposure
