Abstract

Knowledge of the biological effects induced by THz radiation can have a crucial impact in future developments in fields of medicine, biology or chemistry. The lack of THz radiation sources with sufficient power as well as the missing knowledge of the specifics of their use led to the fact that the impact of microwave radiation on different organisms, including microorganisms has not yet been investigated. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of broadband pulsed THz radiation in the frequency range of 0.05 to 1.2 THz on cell systems. Studies conducted in vitro.
