Abstract

The paper describes the conditions for handling and exposure to radiation of the experimental animals (Wistar rats) and the methods of statistical processing of the obtained data, which were used to determine the effect of long-term exposure of the animals to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields (2450 MHz) of nonthermal intensity (500 μW/cm2) on autoimmune processes; the study was performed under the auspices of the World Health Organization.
