This study reports a technology that records a specific radiofrequency electromagnetic energy signal associated with EGFR siRNA and applies it to cells. The abstract describes reductions in EGFR mRNA and protein expression versus controls, with specificity assessed using RNA microarray and antibody dot blot array. It…

This clinical study evaluated whether adding ELF-EMF exposure to a 4-week rehabilitation program affects antioxidant and clinical status in ischemic stroke patients. Fifty-seven patients were assigned to an ELF-EMF group or a non-ELF-EMF group, with the exposed group receiving 40 Hz, 7 mT for 15 minutes per day over…

This animal study tested four frequency-band EMF exposures (1–50,000 Hz variants) in an ovariectomized mouse model of osteoporosis over 8 weeks (3 h/day). Low- and band-pass exposures increased bone formation markers and osteogenesis-related gene expression, while high-pass exposure decreased both formation and…

This in vitro study examined rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exposed to zinc sulphate in the presence of an ELF electromagnetic field (50 Hz, 20 mT). The authors report increased osteogenic differentiation markers (gene expression, ALP activity, and calcium levels) under combined ZnSO4+EMF conditions,…

This study develops a quantum-mechanical radical pair mechanism model to examine how an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) might influence early chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The model evaluates singlet-state recombination and quantum yield under a low magnetic field effect, proposing…

This engineering study evaluates microwave radiation in a household microwave oven for rapid treatment of 1000 g of human feces across multiple power and time settings. It reports substantial volume reduction and high pathogen eradication at higher power settings, and improved moisture removal when using lower power…

This in vitro materials study compares microwave irradiation versus conventional water-bath heating for synthesizing HPMC-graft-(PVA-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels loaded with captopril. The authors report that microwave-synthesized hydrogels had more uniformly porous structures and higher swelling ratios, with…

This laboratory study investigated ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone using organic-acid catalysts to produce poly-ε-caprolactone intended as a biodegradable drug carrier. The authors report that citric acid catalysis yielded substantially higher molecular weight polymer than other catalysts. They also…

This study investigated 2 nm protein-stabilized gold nanoclusters in six mammalian cell types under 1 GHz electromagnetic field exposure. The authors report low intrinsic toxicity of the nanoclusters, but a significant decrease in cell viability when nanocluster-incubated cells were exposed to the 1 GHz field,…

This paper describes an in vitro gene transfection technique termed water-in-oil droplet electroporation, using an intense DC electric field to deform a droplet between electrodes. The deformation can cause an instantaneous short circuit, during which transient membrane pores are reported to form and permit exogenous…

This engineering study deposited Ga-doped ZnO thin films via radio frequency sputtering and examined how Ga content affects optoelectronic properties and electrical stability. The abstract reports non-monotonic changes in conductivity with increasing Ga content alongside degraded crystallinity, while maintaining >80%…

This materials study examines how a high magnetic field affects crystallization during isothermal annealing of [(FeCo)BSi]Nb4 bulk metallic glass. The authors report that the field promotes α-(Fe,Co) precipitation and suppresses boride formation, yielding a nanocomposite microstructure with α-(Fe,Co) dispersed in an…
