This PubMed-listed animal study reports results from the Japanese arm of an international Japan–Korea collaboration evaluating whether long-term mobile-phone-like RF-EMF exposure causes cancer or genetic damage in rats. Male Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to 900 MHz CDMA-modulated RF-EMF at a whole-body SAR of 4 W/kg for nearly 18.5 hours/day over two years, alongside OECD/GLP genotoxicity and carcinogenicity testing. The authors report no statistically significant increases in neoplastic or non-neoplastic lesions in major organs and no evidence of DNA or chromosomal damage, concluding the findings do not support reproducible carcinogenic or genotoxic effects under these conditions.

This international collaborative animal study (Japanese arm) evaluated carcinogenicity and genotoxicity in male Sprague Dawley rats exposed long-term to 900 MHz CDMA-modulated RF-EMFs at 4 W/kg whole-body SAR. The abstract reports no statistically significant increases in neoplastic or non-neoplastic lesions in major organs and no evidence of genotoxicity on comet or micronucleus testing. The authors conclude the findings provide strong evidence of no reproducible carcinogenic or genotoxic effects under the studied conditions.
