These studies indicate that the increase in the frequency of complement receptor‐positive (CR + ) spleen cells observed 6 days after a 30‐min exposure to 2450‐MHz microwaves is not the result of microwave‐induced alterations of lymphocyte recirculation patterns, but is mediated by a soluble, humoral factor produced by cells within the spleen.
