RESUMEN
This work represents generalization and the analysis of the long-term own materials characterizing reaction of the brain on electromagnetic radiation of low intensity (energy flow density in the continuous regime or in the impulse approximately 500 microW/sm2) and a short exposition (approximately 30 min). A set of the experimental results received on separate neurons, formations and brain as a whole give an idea about the reaction of the central nervous system to the studied influence. Comparison of these data with the corresponding responses to the known incentives (light, sound, electric current) testifies to the electromagnetic radiation of low energy flow density and a short exposition as a sub-threshold irritant for the central nervous system.

Experimental analysis of the integral and pulsed bioelectric activity of the rabbit's various brain regions shows an ambiguous extent of their participation in the central nervous system reactions to low-intensity magnetic and electromagnetic fields with different parameters and conditions of exposure. This difference is determined not only by the location of brain structures in the head or by the field intensity, but, above all, by its functional state, which is reflected in the background. Artificial changes in the functioning of the original structures (administration of caffeine or adrenaline) altered the extent of their participation in the brain reaction, according to the drug action mechanism. The presence and severity of response depended on the structure and the biological significance of the impact, which is largely determined by the mode and conditions of exposure. Changing these parameters influenced the participation of the brain in its reaction in accordance with the adaptive response of the organism.

The effect of various physical factors (SM F: 460 O; microwave EMF: 6 GHz, continuous mode, 200 microW/sm2; sound: clicks of 50 Hz, 6 db above a threshold of EEG response) on responses of neurons in visual area of cerebral cortex of rabbits to light flashes (1 Hz, 1 ms, 0.62 J) has been studied in experiments on 27 rabbits. The character of changes depended on the indicators for a background and for the response to the isolated action of light. Inhibition, rather than activation, was observed at a significantly higher initial frequency. Effect of the factors of magnetic nature was similar to the action of sound (inadequate irritant for the visual area). Inhibitory reactions were observed more frequently (significant result for the group of neurons), with their amplification at a combined action of irritants (SMF and microwave EMF; SMF and sound). The basic character of changes was limited to the drop in the pulsation frequency at the first phase of activation and to the increase in the latent periods of the first and second active phases. Other indicators for reaction to light flashes actually didn't change.

In researches with participation of volunteers bioeffects of short-term non-thermal radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF EMF) exposure were studied. The basic form of brain's reaction was the amplification of energy in a-range in electroencephalogram (EEG) spectra. Dependence of these changes, not only due to the changes of the exposure parameters, but also due to personal EEG typological features was shown. Moderate degree of the alpha frequencies domination in the background promoted development of reaction of a brain to the RF EMF exposure. To a lesser degree it was shown at hyperactivity of this range and, practically, was absent in the conditions of theta- or beta2-range domination in the EEG background with the open and closed eyes. The combination of RF EMF exposure and monotonous activity has authentically strengthened result, keeping the basic form of reaction (energy amplification in the alpha range of EEG spectrum) and dependence on EEG typological features.

The important role of direct action of a constant magnetic field (CMF) on a fabric of a brain in its realization neural-effects under condition of an irradiation of a head of an animal is shown. In experiments on rabbits it is statistically proved, that a various degree of neural isolation of a bark of a brain, not only does not interfere with display of reaction of its bioelectric activity on CMF, but also does by its more precise (unequivocal, intensive, short-latent), in comparison with corresponding answers of intact brain. The comparative analysis of bioelectric activity of intact brain, a preparation "cerveau isole", the neural-isolated strip of a bark (at rabbits) and completely isolated nervous system (a chain of a river cancer) in conditions of action CMF proves the above-stated position.

The comparison (juxtaposition) of the rats and the rabbits organism reactions on the electromagnetic irradiation (1.5 GHz, 300 microW/cm2, non-stop mode, 30 min) by the index of the physiological status indicators and of the blood microelements (ME)--metals concentration is presented. This physiological status indicators display that the mentioned irradiation is an underthreshold effect for central nerve system, which doesn't cause the essential changes on the organism level. In the same time, the reliable blood microelements-metals concentration shifts are established. And this let us suppose the ME-indicator as the most informative value of an organism reaction on the electromagnetic irradiations corresponding to the underthreshold effects for the central nerve system.

EMF neuro-effects are weak or under-threshold irritants (from the position of biological significance) and completely determined by initial status of nervous system. Initial brain bioelectrical activity characterized by the first developing symptoms of drowsiness or passive awaking condition promotes the reaction development. But emotional tension or somatic activation interfere this process. This dependence could be remedied by increasing of biological significance of low intensity EMF and changing of the analyzed physiological parameter.

In experiments on 22 rabbits the influence of a pulse microwave irradiation on extracellular activity of separate nervous cells of sensorimotori and occipital areas of a cortex brain is shown. The reaction could consist in activation or in braking frequency of the discharges, that was connected to frequency impulsation in an initial background. The researched mode of a microwave irradiation (1.5 GHz, duration of a pulsed-0.4 microsecond, frequency of their recurrence 1000 Hz, DFEpulsed-300 microW/sm2) had a corrigizing action.

The development of experimental neurosis in rabbits led to stable changes in the correlation between behavioural phases in "rest-activity", i.e. some prolongation of active phases and a considerable shortening of rest phases. The analysis of spatio-temporal organization of cortical potentials by comparing successive topograms showed that changes occurred not only in quantitative parameters of rest-activity phases but also in their qualitative characteristics. Thus the depth of the resting states in neurosis lessened and the spatio-temporal cortical potentials' characteristics during the active phases were disorganized. The described shifts in the cortex state probably hindered normal alternation of activity-rest behavioural phases providing for optimal conditions of animals' activity.

Experimental neurosis was achieved in fifteen rabbits (both fixed on a stand and unrestrained) by sudden, drastic enhancement of a pain electrocutaneous stimulation used as reinforcement, at the stage of a stable elaborated avoidance reflex. The experimental neurosis was characterized by a prolonged (one to two months) disturbance of conditioned activity, greater motor restlessness, predominance of the fear type reactions, the animals' reduced weight, higher pulse and respiratory rate. Dynamics of the respiratory rate and brain bioelectrical activity became chaotic. Simultaneously, bioelectrical activity revealed greater similarity of the processes in the cortex and subcortical structures at one and the same moment. Analysis of the electrogram frequency spectra of different brain formations, pointed to an enhancement in all frequency ranges (with the exception of gamma), with a clear predominance of the 6 to 10 c/s band which was most distinctly expressed in the amygdaloid structures.
