Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined repeated asymmetrical head exposure to a 5G-modulated 3.5 GHz signal in adult male mice for six weeks. It reports no significant changes in locomotion, anxiety, or object-based memory performance under the tested conditions. However, it found statistically significant but limited cortical…

RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2015
This paper describes synthesis and characterization of magnetic nanoparticles intended for tumor hyperthermia applications. It reports that the particles show relatively high specific absorption rate (22–200 W/g) under a 160 kHz alternating magnetic field at 100–500 Oe, despite low saturation magnetization. The…

Jan 1, 2015
This in vitro study exposed five microorganisms (including indoor isolates and reference strains) to an extremely low frequency magnetic field (60 Hz, 3 mT) for two hours. The authors report a statistically significant increase in colony counts in exposed samples versus controls, with stronger stimulation in nutrient…
Dielectric aggregation kinetics of cells in a uniform AC electric field.

Jan 1, 2014
This study develops and tests a theoretical model of how HeLa cells aggregate when exposed to a uniform AC electric field. Model-derived aggregation times and predicted string-length growth rates matched numerical simulation, and experiments observed substantial clustering in the chamber. The work is framed as…
General practitioners' knowledge and concern about electromagnetic fields.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2014
This cross-sectional survey sampled general practitioners in Germany to assess EMF knowledge and its relationship to concern about EMF health risks. Four latent knowledge groups were identified, with 43.1% giving mainly correct answers and 14.0% answering mostly "don't know". Concern was not related to knowledge…
In vitro tests reveal sample radiofrequency identification readers inducing clinically significant electromagnetic interference to implantable pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
