Study on effect of microwave radiation on human sperm morphology

  Objective   To approach the effects of microwave radiation on humansemen morphology.

  Methods   After filling out questionnaire and body check, molecular epidemic investigation was carried out by sperm automatic analysis among radar working people.

  Results   The rate of sperm deformity of the radar working people changed as radar electromagnetic wave frequency; distance; intensity; lasting time and protection shield change, and showed some dose-response relationship.Among which the increase of rate of sperm macrocephaly and defective sperm on cervical part and tail is principal.The results between exposed group and control group showed significant difference(P < 0.01).

  Conclusion   Among radar working people who suffered from non-ionization for long time and had bad radar shield protection, the rate of sperm deformity increased, but which didn't affect male reproductive function.
