CHANGES IN CERTAIN HEMATOLOGICAL TESTS AS A RESULT OF EXPOSURE TO BROADBAND ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS IN THE EXPERIMENT

Abstract

The article presents the results of studying hematological tests of small laboratory animals after exposure to broadband electromagnetic radiation. To achieve this goal, three study groups were formed, each of which included 10 male mice. After exposure, the parameters of the quantitative analysis of leukocytes, leukocyte formula and leukocyte indices of the control, experimental and intact groups were compared. The statistical significance of the revealed differences was determined using the Mann-Whitney test. As a result of the study, when determining the total concentration of leukocytes, statistically significant differences were revealed between the experimental and intact groups, the control and intact groups. During the analysis of the data of the leukocyte formula, no statistically significant differences were revealed, however, in the experimental group, atypical forms of leukocytes with myelodysplasia were revealed. When studying the data of a biochemical blood test and calculating leukocyte indices, no significant differences between the study groups were also revealed.
