A report is presented on systemic anaphylactic reaction [SAR] of rabbits to bovine serum albumin and ferritin. Active anaphylactic sensibilization with a high yield of sensibilized animals was achieved by administering antigens to rabbits aged a few hours up to 3 months. Tre rabbits showed no presence of precipitins in the circulation, but there were reagins against bovine serum albumin or ferritin. There were various types of SAR activity. Macroscopic findings showed acute emphysema and signs of right heart overload. Apart from acute pulmonary emphysema, histology showed occasional bronchospasm and certain manifestations of RES activation as there was evidence of oedematous infiltration of the peribronchial and perivascular spaces. The above morphological findings cannot as yet be regarded as pathognomonic for SAR.

Far-field exposures of male albino rats to 2.45-GHz microwaves (10-microseconds pulses, 100 pps) at a low average power density (10 mW/cm2; SAR approximately 2 W/kg) and short durations (30-120 min) resulted in increased uptakes of tracer through the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The uptake of systemically administered rhodamine-ferritin complex by capillary endothelial cells (CECs) of the cerebral cortex was dependent on power density and on duration of exposure. At 5 mW/cm2, for example, a 15-min exposure had no effect. Near-complete blockade of uptake resulted when rats were treated before exposure to microwaves with a single dose of colchicine, which inhibits microtubular function. A pinocytotic-like mechanism is presumed responsible for the microwave-induced increase in BBB permeability.
