To determine if a repeated, acute exposure of mice to a pulsed 900 MHzmicrowavesignal that correspond to the GSM signature could be effective in altering the acquisition and performance of a learned behavioral task in a radial arm maze.
Animals were individually confined in Perspex cages (14 x 5 x 5 cm) limiting their movement without explicit restraint. Three of the small cages were secured to a Perspex base plate which fitted closely within a container (34 x 20 x 12.5 cm) of twin wall, corrugated polypropylene.
Setup
The box was positioned centred along the mid-line of the cell so that the animals were placed mid-way between septum and floor which had a separation of 90 cm at this point.
No significant field-dependent effects on performance were found in choice accuracy or in total times to complete the task across the experiment. These data suggest that exposure to radiofrequencyradiation simulating a GSMsignal under the conditions of this experiment does not affect the acquisition of the learned response.
