  • Title: Dielectric properties of lens tissue at microwave frequencies.
    Author: Steel MC, Sheppard RJ.
    Journal: Bioelectromagnetics; 1986; 7(1):73-81. PubMed ID: 3730003.
    Abstract:
    The relative permittivity and conductivity of rabbit eye lens were measured in the frequency domain between 2 and 18 GHz at temperatures of 37 and 20 degrees C. An analysis of the data suggested that a significant proportion of the bulk water in nuclear and cortical lens tissue may behave differently to pure water. In addition, the Maxwell-Fricke mixture theory was used to estimate the amount of hydrated water that relaxes far below 1 GHz.
