Summary
| Description | In this February 18, 1977 seminar, Ester S. Ferri of the United States Bureau of Radiological Health addresses the problem of microwave cataractogenesis from a biochemical alteration standpoint. A drop in the level of ascorbic acid in the lens of rabbits' eyes was the first identifiable reaction to microwave radiation, and Ferri presents a brief review of the literature on this subject. She then reports on her own study of ascorbic acid values in the vitreous lens and aqueous humor of rabbit eyes exposed to microwave irradiation. A lengthy slideshow of charts and diagrams accompanies the lecture. Credits: Ester S. Ferri. |
