General information
Twelve different MW events including sham were tested in two series of experiments. The first series was designed to compare the twofold increase in the response rate (evoked body movements) by pulsed to gated CW (single pulse) MW (E1, E2, E3, E6, E7, E8). The second series was designed to supplement and to expand the dose-response curve of the first series (E4, E5, E9, E10, E11, and sham). Each mouse was exposed in three sessions, at least 24 h apart. Each session comprised six consecutive randomised MW events, the testing period for each event lasting 15 s. To evaluate thermal stimulation and hyperthermia, rectal and four subcutaneous cranial temperatures were measured in an anaesthetised mouse for five different MW exposures (E4, E5, E9, E10, E11) and eight replications. Positive controls were performed using 100-ms acoustic (104 dB SPL, 2.5-25 kHz noise) and tactile (40 psi air puff) stimuli using a procedure similar to the MW exposure.
