Abstract

The effects of differently polarized microwaves (f= 35 GHz, E = 30 μW/cm2, irradiation time 10 s) on human buccal epithelium cells were investigated. The stainability of cells with indigo carmine (5 mM) or trypan blue (0,5 %) after 5 min of staining was investigated. It was shown irradiation to be induced a decrease in the percentage of unstained cells. Microwave irradiation-induced decrease of the percentage of unstained cells. As a rule, the left polarized radiation-induced a more pronounced effect than right polarized radiation, and linearly polarized radiation-induced the most effect.
