  • Title: Surface morphological study of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells exposed to microwave irradiation and heat.
    Author: Chew EC, Riches DJ, Lam TK, Hou-Chan HL.
    Journal: Experientia; 1984 Aug 15; 40(8):881-4. PubMed ID: 6468609.
    Abstract:
    Microwave irradiation of EAT cells caused an increase in length and number of surface microvilli. The tumor cells tend to form large aggregates by means of extensive interdigitation of surface microvilli. On the other hand, heat hyperthermia caused a decrease of surface microvilli but an increase of surface blebs. Hence the surface morphology of EAT cells after in vitro exposure to microwave irradiation differs markedly from that after heat hyperthermia.
