Electrical and thermal properties of deionised water and 50 g/L agar gel with 4.0 g/L NaCl at a temperature of 21 °C. The dielectric properties were measured using a dielectric assessment kit (DAK) 12 probe (4 MHz–3 GHz) from SPEAG (Zurich, Switzerland). *Based on deionised water at room temperature. **Data obtained from the IT’IS database³⁵.
