Abstract

The scientific literature on the problem of modification of radio-resistance of organisms by their
preliminary irradiation by microwaves is reviewed. The conditions necessary for radio-resistance
stimulation are characterized. Among them are the stimulation of histamine synthesis and release. It is
shown that the increase of histamine concentration may be achieved by the increase of membrane
permeability by the means of microwave radiation exposure. It is shown that the increase of membrane
permeability may result cell exposure to microwaves of low intensity (less than 10 mW/cm2). The causes
of the inconsistency of results obtained by different research groups are elucidated.
