This animal study exposed fertilized chick eggs to a nearby 1800 MHz mobile phone that was called repeatedly (50 minutes/day) and assessed embryos at days 10 and 15. The exposed group reportedly showed mitochondrial abnormalities in liver, brain, and heart tissues on electron microscopy, along with increased HSP70 in…
Electromagnetic fields at a mobile phone frequency (900 MHz) trigger the onset of general stress response along with DNA modifications in Eisenia fetida earthworms.

This animal study exposed Eisenia fetida earthworms to 900 MHz electromagnetic fields at 10–120 V/m for 2 hours (with additional tests of longer exposure, modulation, and recovery). The authors report significant DNA modifications across exposure treatments and a decrease in probe hybridisation sites persisting after…
