Radio Broadcasting Tower exposure to cows and correlation of grazing location (proximity to tower) with chromosome effects |
| Details |
|
Cows from a field directly in front of a Radio Broadcast tower in Skrunda were analyzed for Micronuclei in peripheral blood and results compared to cows in a "control" field. The authors report a statistically significant elevation in MN in the "exposed" cows, although many other environmental factors might have come into play when comparing one endpoint between cows from 2 different locations on 2 different farms. |
