Jan 1, 2015
This animal experimental study exposed male Wistar rats to 2.45 GHz Wi-Fi radiation for 1 or 7 hours per day over two months and compared them with unexposed controls. The abstract reports time-dependent decreases in sperm parameters alongside increased apoptotic markers (apoptosis-positive cells and caspase-3…

Jan 1, 2015
This animal study evaluated repeated 1800 MHz EMF exposure (5 × 15 minutes) on lipid peroxidation (MDA) in Wistar rats, including healthy animals and those with CFA-induced inflammation, with and without tramadol. The authors report slightly elevated MDA in blood, brain, and kidneys in EMF-exposed conditions,…

Aug 13, 2014
This randomized animal experiment examined whether 60 Hz extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF-MF) exposure alters oxidative stress-related biomarkers in 75 Wistar rats. The authors report increased lipid peroxidation markers after both single and 14-day exposures, alongside changes in antioxidant-related…

Jan 1, 2013
This animal study evaluated whether sinusoidal magnetic field exposure alters P-selectin expression in a rat colon tumor model. Rats exposed to 50 Hz, 5 mT for 6 h/day for 8 months showed no statistically significant change in P-selectin expression by immunohistochemistry. The authors indicate that further in vitro…
Effects of radiofrequency radiation exposure on blood-brain barrier permeability in male and female rats

Jan 1, 2011
This rat study tested whether acute exposure to 0.9 and 1.8 GHz continuous-wave radiofrequency radiation alters blood-brain barrier permeability. Using Evans-blue/albumin as a tracer, the authors report no BBB leakage in exposed female rats but a significant increase in albumin in exposed male rat brains versus sham.…
Mitomycin C-associated radiofrequency microelectrocautery used in myringotomy in an animal model.

Jan 1, 2009
This experimental animal study compared tympanic membrane closure time after myringotomy performed by microknife versus radiofrequency microcautery, with and without mitomycin C. Radiofrequency myringotomy differed significantly from knife myringotomy, and the 0.7 mm radiofrequency tip combined with mitomycin C was…
Effects of pulsed electromagnetic field vibration on tooth movement induced by magnetic and mechanical forces: a preliminary study.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2007
This randomized animal study tested whether pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF)-induced vibration affects orthodontic tooth movement produced by magnetic and/or mechanical forces. Forty-four Wistar rats were exposed to PEMF-induced vibration or normal atmosphere while tooth movement was induced using magnets and/or…
