    Abstract:
    A 7 hrs exposure of white rats to power density (PD) of 500, 50 and 10 microW/cm2 for 30 days induced changes in phagocytic ability of blood neutrophils, glycogen content and alkaline phosphatase activity. At PD level of 500 microW/cm2 the depression of absorption and digestion functions of neutrophils as well as the decrease of alkaline phosphatase activity and glycogen content were observed during the whole period of aftereffect (three months after exposure). PD levels of 50 and 10 microW/cm2 caused intensification of phagocytic function and metabolism in neutrophils. By the end of the observation period the mentioned indices did not differ from the initial ones.
