Cerebral cortex tissue slices and cerebral hemispheres prepared from Gallus domesticus chicks were exposed to 147 MHz radiofrequency radiation, amplitude modulated at 16 Hz and applied at a power density of 0.75 mW/cm2, to determine the effect of such exposure of /sup 45/Ca/sup 2 +/ efflux from the avian brain tissue. Statistical analysis of these data demonstrates that such exposure has no significant effect on /sup 45/Ca/sup 2 +/ efflux.
