Abstract :
The spheres of submillimetric- (terahertz) radiation use is continuously extended. However the biological effect of this waveband is studied insufficiently. This work is devoted to researching the effect of such radiance on the nervous cells in vitro at the stage of neogenesis of a neural network. The effect of radiation on the vital activity of cells in dependence on power is shown. This work was supported by program of Presidium of SB RAS (No. 64).
