Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined Wi-Fi RF-EMR exposure in adult zebrafish (4 hours/day for 30 days) and assessed reproductive tissues and offspring outcomes. The abstract reports testicular and ovarian histopathological abnormalities in exposed adults. Offspring from exposed parents, maintained under EMF-free conditions,…

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study exposed zebrafish embryos to static electromagnetic fields for 63 days post-hatching across aquariums positioned 30–99 cm from the source, with an EMF-free control. The abstract reports strong shifts in sex distribution (including 100% female at the closest distance), markedly reduced survival in…

Jan 1, 2024
This animal study exposed fertilized chick eggs to a nearby 1800 MHz mobile phone that was called repeatedly (50 minutes/day) and assessed embryos at days 10 and 15. The exposed group reportedly showed mitochondrial abnormalities in liver, brain, and heart tissues on electron microscopy, along with increased HSP70 in…

Jan 1, 2023
This animal study examined daily perinatal 5G EMF exposure in rats at the ICNIRP whole-body public exposure limit (maternal SAR 0.07 W/kg) from gestational day 8 to post-natal day 21. The authors report a 1-day delay in incisor eruption in both sexes and sex-dependent changes in stereotyped behavior in the open field…

Jan 1, 2021
This animal and primary neuron culture study exposed early postnatal mice to whole-body RF-EMF (SAR 4.0 W/kg) for 5 hours/day from P1 to P28. The authors report reductions in dendritic spine measures (notably mushroom-type spines), decreased glutamate receptor expression in mushroom-type spines, and lower BDNF…

Jan 1, 2015
This experimental animal study examined RF EMF effects on reproduction in CBA mice and on the morphofunctional status of their offspring under two exposure models. The authors report that repeated short-term RF EMF exposure (5 days, 10 minutes per day, 1.2 mW/cm2) affected pregnancy course, litter number, fertility,…
The effect of pulsed and sinusoidal magnetic fields on the morphology of developing chick embryos

Jan 1, 1997
This animal study reports results from five experimental campaigns over five years examining weak magnetic field exposure and morphological abnormalities in White Leghorn chick embryos. Four campaigns reported statistically significant increases in abnormality rates, while one pulsed-field campaign showed only a…
