Estimating the effect of 18 GHz frequency exposure on E. Coli cells viability
The lower limits of the incident power density of 18 GHz radiation that is required to influence cell viability in Escherichia coli are explored using a colony forming units (CFU's) count as proxy for the metabolic capacity of the cells.It was found that viability of E. coli cells were not significantly affected when exposed to continuous incident 18 GHz narrowband radiation of 350 Wm -2 for 5, 10 and 20 minutes
