Abstract
The effects of GSM-modulated microwaves on lymphocyte subpopulations of Spr ague-Dawley rats and their normal mitogenic responses were investigated usi ng flow cytometry analysis and a colorimetric method. No alterations were f ound in the surface phenotype of splenic lymphocytes or in their mitogenic activity, indicating that low-level pulsed microwaves do not seem to affect the integrity of the immune system.
