この研究は、マイクロ波によりラットの脳細胞に誘導されたDNA一本鎖および二本鎖切断に、一過性の非コヒーレントな磁界ノイズが影響を与えるか否かを調べた。ばく露に用いたマイクロ波は、連続波2450 MHz、電力密度1 mW / cm2、平均全身SAR 0.6 W / kgである。磁界ノイズの磁束密度は45 mGである。マイクロ波ばく露群、磁界ノイズばく露群、マイクロ波+ノイズばく露群、および擬似ばく露群での比較を行った。いずれもばく露時間は2時間である。動物の脳細胞におけるDNA一本鎖および二本鎖切断は、ミクロゲル電気泳動アッセイを用いて、ばく露の4時間後に測定された。その結果、マイクロ波ばく露群のラットの脳細胞では、擬似ばく露群に比べ、DNAの一本鎖および二本鎖切断のレベルが有意に高かった;磁界ノイズ単独ばく露は、その切断レベルに有意な影響を及ぼさなかった(すなわち、それらは擬似ばく露群のレベルと同様であった);マイクロ波+ノイズばく露群では、マイクロ波によるDNA鎖切断の増加が阻害された、と報告している。

To study whether simultaneous exposure to a temporally incoherent magnetic field ("noise") could attenuate microwave-induced increases in DNA single-strand breaks and double-strand breaks in brain cells of the rat.
Four treatment groups of rats were investigated: microwave-exposure, noise-exposure (45 mG), microwave + noise-exposure, and sham-exposure.
Animals were exposed to MW alone, MW plus noise, and noise alone. A sham-exposed animal was included in each run.

Data show that brain cells of microwave-exposed rats had significantly higher levels of DNA single-strand breaks and double-strand breaks when compared with sham-exposed animals. Exposure to noise alone did not significantly affect the levels. However, simultaneous noise exposure blocked microwave-induced increases in DNA strand breaks.
These findings indicate that simultaneous exposure to a temporally incoherent magnetic field could block microwave-induced DNA damage in brain cells of the rat.
