Lee et al. 1993
|
Suffolk sheep (female)
|
Juvenile
|
10 per group
|
Exposed under 500-kV power line: continuous 6-kV electric and 4-µT magnetic fields; controls 225 m from power line; continuous <10-V/m electric and <0.03-µT magnetic fields
|
Blood melatonin between ages of 2 and 10 mon at 8 different times
|
No effect on 24-hr melatonin rhythms between exposed and controls
|
Thorough and well-supervised study

Rogers et al. 1995
|
Papio cynocephalus baboons (male)
|
Adult
|
3 per group
|
Random, intermittent (with rapid onset/offset) 30-kV/m electric and 100-µT magnetic field; animals served as own controls and run at another time in the same facility
|
Blood melatonin
|
Nighttime melatonin depressed in experiments
|
Animals served as own controls; therefore, controls not run simultaneously
