[Assessment of some metabolic parameters of white rats' liver after exposure to repetitive x-ray or microwave pulses].

Effects of repetitive X-ray and microwave pulses on the rat liver functions were investigated. The action of repetitive nanosecond X-ray is characterized by the metabolic dysfunction of the liver. In particular, it results in a considerable reduction in the ALT activity, augmentation of the AST/ALT ratio and decrease of the total protein content. The most considerable effect is observed at 16 Hz. Microwave pulses render a less significant effect on metabolic functions of the rat liver as compared to X-rays. The effect depends on the frequency of pulses.
