Over the past few decades, microwave (MW) radiation has been widely used, and its biological effects have been extensively investigated. However, the effect of MW radiation on human skin biology is not well understood. We study the effects of pulsed high-power microwaves (HPMs) on melanoma (G361 and SK-Mel-31) and normal human dermal fibroblast (NHDF) cells. A pulsed power generator (Chundoong) was used to generate pulsed HPMs (dominant frequency: GHz). For treatment 1, 5, 15, and 45 shots are given to cells in which the electromagnetic energy of J was delivered to the cells at each trigger shot. Cell viability, proliferation rate, apoptosis, cell death, metabolic activity, and oxygenfree radical regulation were evaluated after the MW exposure at low and high doses. | Pulsed high-power microwaves do not impair the functions of skin normal and cancer cells in vitro A short-term biological evaluation
