Аннотация:We have carried out the studies aimed at assessing the
effect of terahertz radiation on DNA molecules in human blood leukocytes.
Genotoxic testing of terahertz radiation was performed in
three different oscillation regimes, the blood leukocytes from
healthy donors being irradiated for 20 minutes with the mean intensity
of 8 – 200 mW cm–2 within the frequency range of 0.1 – 6.5 THz.
Using the comet assay it is shown that in the selected regimes such
radiation does not induce a direct DNA damage in viable human
blood leukocytes.
