Table 1.

Three sensors measured similar peak pressures across RDX detonations.

Sensor position Peak pressure, psi
Left 109.5 ± 5.82
Middle 114.9 ± 7.40
Right 114.5 ± 8.38

Hippocampal slice cultures were sealed in serum-free medium and clamped within a water-filled tank with three high frequency pressure sensors positioned directly above the tissue culture plate. Upon detonation of live explosive outside the tank (1.7 g RDX), peak pressures resulting from the propagating pressure wave were measured by the three sensors (mean psi ± SEM, n = 12).
