Embryos were exposed to 3.5 GHz, ~ 30 dBm RFR, at a specific absorption rate (SAR) ≈ 8.27 W/Kg from 6–48 hpf and developmental parameters were measured at 120 hpf. All assays (panels A-C) were sequentially conducted from the same subset of embryos, with a total of 144 embryos from 3 replicate experiments used per treatment condition. (A) Summary of effects observed within our study. Measured parameters include mortality (Mort), 17 morphological parameters and 2 behavioral parameters (larval photomotor (LPR) and startle (LSR) responses). “Any effect” indicates a combination of all 17 morphological parameters. “LSR-All” indicates AUC and Peak measurements combined. (B) RFR exposure does not have any significant effect on photomotor response. (C) RFR exposure results in reduced peak height for startle response. denotes the acoustic signal. * indicates a statistically significant difference at p<0.05.
