control the occurrence of biologically effective cavitation‐type phenomena in the frequency
region 0.25 4 MHz. The experimental criterion by which “cavitation” is recognized here is the
simultaneous occurrence of degradation of DNA in aqueous solution, liberation of free I 2
from KI solution, and generation of half‐order subharmonic. The intensity threshold for
cavitation rises with frequency from 0.14 to 17.5 W cm− 2 (spatial peak) in the above …
