Abstract :
The study of the low-dose (weak) millimeter (MMW) electromagnetic field action upon biological systems is of great interest due to their well-known biological and therapeutical effects. In our work 1) using holographic interferometer, we have visualized the action of millimeter field upon blood, solution of biological molecules and tissues. 2) With optics and spectroscopy, we have detected the changes in vibrations modes of NH3 and COO terminal groups of aminoacids, which is responsible for the interaction of protein with other biological molecules in biochemical reactions. 3) The changes in protein luminescence kinetics process have been detected also. 4) The modification of tertiary structure of DNA molecules have been observed in model experiments
