Microwave Radiation and Chlordiazepoxide: Synergistic Effects on Fixed-Interval Behavior

Microwave Radiation and Chlordiazepoxide: Synergistic Effects on Fixed-Interval Behavior

In the presence of low-intensity pulsed microwave radiation, at an average power density of 1 milliwatt per square centimeter, the response-rate-increasing effects of chlordiazepoxide were potentiated in rats. The behavioral effects of a drug can be modified by brief exposure to a low-level microwav...

Zusammenfassung:In the presence of low-intensity pulsed microwave radiation, at an average power density of 1 milliwatt per square centimeter, the response-rate-increasing effects of chlordiazepoxide were potentiated in rats. The behavioral effects of a drug can be modified by brief exposure to a low-level microwave field even when the radiation level alone has no apparent effects on the behavior.
