The effect of electromagnetic radiation on the membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum

: On the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes has been shown that at temperature of Ca2(+)-ATPase activity change of dependence in the Arrhenius plot the microwaves (2450 MHz, specific absorption rate 12 w/kg) inhibit the ATP-hydrolase and Ca2(+)-transporting activity of Ca2(+)-ATPase. The effect of radiation exhibits within the narrow temperature range (approximately 1 degree C) and quantitatively corresponds to the decrease of Ca2(+)-ATPase activity caused by the decrease of temperature by 1.6 degrees C from 18 degrees C. The fluorescence intensity of naphthalene sulfonic probes reduces under the influence of microwaves at 18 degrees C.
