Abstract
Experimental results of the influence of low intensity millimeter waves on the growth rate of E. coli and the transformation of plasmid DNA to bacteria are given. The possibility of nonthermal effects of millimeter waves is discussed. Suggestions for verifying whether an effect is a nonthermal effect are given.
