Group | Average power density of L-band microwaves | Average power density of C-band microwaves | SAR (W/kg) |
---|---|---|---|
S* | 0 mW/cm2 | 0 mW/cm2 | 0 |
L10 | 10 mW/cm2 for 6 min | 0 mW/cm2 | 3.7 |
C10 | 0 mW/cm2 | 10 mW/cm2 for 6 min | 3.3 |
LC10# | 10 mW/cm2 for 6 min | 10 mW/cm2 for 6 min | 3.7 for 6 min + 3.3 for 6 min |
*The rats in the sham radiation group were placed in polypropylene cages for 6 min
#The rats in the LC10 groups were first irradiated with L-band microwave radiation for 6 min and then immediately irradiated with C-band microwave radiation for 6 min.
