A serious, but very uncommon side effect of IL-2 in high doses is capillary leak syndrome or vascular leak syndrome. Capillary leak syndrome is a potentially serious disease in which fluids within the vascular system (veins and capillaries) leaks into the tissue outside the bloodstream.
The electromagnetic spectrum runs from radio waves (the longest wavelength) to gamma waves (the shortest wavelength). In increasing wavelength order, the electromagnetic spectrum is: radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays. In the visible spectrum, violet light has the shortest wavelength.
Electromagnetic waves are waves of energy formed by accelerating charge. They are classified by the wavelength, frequency, and energy. The electromagnetic spectrum is an illustration of such classification. At one end of the spectrum are the longer wavelength, lower frequency, and lower energy waves. At the other end are the shorter wavelength, higher frequency, and higher energy waves. The spectrum in order from the lower frequency to the higher frequency is radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-ray, and gamma ray.
