Adverse Effects of Electromagnetic Fields on The Central Nervous System: A Review
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This review argues that EMF exposure is associated in the literature with several adverse central nervous system outcomes, including blood-brain barrier disruption, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter changes, cognitive effects, and neurodevelopmental impacts. It reports that evidence on EMFs and brain tumors is…

Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This mini-review discusses indoor radiation sources that may affect companion animals, including radon, radionuclides in feed, radiofrequency sources (phones, Wi-Fi, pet tracking devices), solar radiation, and extremely low frequency radiation. It reports that indoor radiation may negatively impact companion animal…

Jan 1, 2024
This pilot animal study examined ELF-EMF exposure (0.1 or 1.0 mT, 1 h/day up to 5 weeks) in sedentary adult male C57BL/6 mice, with or without N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) supplementation. The authors report a transient increase in muscle strength after 2 weeks at 1.0 mT, accompanied by higher PAX7 and myosin heavy chain…

Jan 1, 2024
This in vitro study tested electromagnetic fields generated by a prototype wireless power transfer (wireless charging) system on four human dermal and neural cell lines. Across pulsed and continuous exposure conditions, the authors report no negative effects on morphology/cytoskeleton, viability/mitosis,…

Jan 1, 2015
This animal study tested whether extremely low-level pulsed EMF (0.034 μG, 0.952 Hz) could suppress induced atrial fibrillation in 17 anesthetized dogs. EMF applied to cervical vagal trunks or across the chest was reported to suppress neural firing in the anterior right ganglionated plexi. The authors report that EMF…
Occupational exposure to intermediate frequency and extremely low frequency magnetic fields among personnel working near electronic article surveillance systems

Jan 1, 2014
This workplace measurement study assessed intermediate frequency (IF) and extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field exposure among cashiers working near electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems in Finnish stores. Typical seated exposures were reported as well below limits, but short-term exceedances of ICNIRP…
The effect of extremely low frequency pulsed electromagnetic field on in vitro fertilization success rate in N MRI mice.

Jan 1, 2014
This randomized comparative animal study tested whether extremely low frequency pulsed electromagnetic field exposure affects IVF success in NMRI mice. Mice in the experimental group were exposed to a 1.3 mT pulsed field at 4 kHz for 5 hours during the IVF process. Although the exposed group showed a higher IVF…
