The effects of acute and chronic exposure of 3G UMTS 2100 MHz radiofrequency radiation on rat mismatch negativity
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2026
This rat study examined acute (1-week) and chronic (10-week) exposure to 2100 MHz radiofrequency radiation (3G UMTS-like) and assessed auditory mismatch negativity (MMN) alongside biochemical and histological brain measures. The abstract reports that acute exposure was associated with reduced MMN-related…

RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2026
This animal study examined subchronic exposure to a 30 mT static magnetic field for 10 weeks in young and 36-month-old rats (n=27). The abstract reports decreased lymphocyte counts and increased NLR in both age groups, with PLR increases limited to young rats and platelet decreases reported in older rats. The authors…
U.S. policy on wireless technologies and public health protection: regulatory gaps and proposed reforms
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This policy-focused paper contends that U.S. oversight of radiofrequency radiation from wireless technologies is outdated and insufficient, with exposure limits and testing approaches not aligned with modern long-term, chronic exposure scenarios. It emphasizes gaps in protections for children, pregnancy, vulnerable…
Review of the evidence on the influence of Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz radiation on oxidative stress and its possible relationship with Alzheimer's disease
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
The review states there is no scientific consensus on whether Wi‑Fi (2.4/5 GHz) contributes to Alzheimer's disease through oxidative stress, and that existing results are mixed and inconclusive. It discusses an indirect analysis linking oxidative-stress-responsive genes after 2.4 GHz exposure with genes associated…
Oxidative stress and testicular damage induced by chronic exposure to 35.5 GHz millimeter wave radiation in male Wistar rats
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This randomized controlled animal study examined chronic 35.5 GHz millimeter wave exposure in male Wistar rats (2 hours/day for 60 days) compared with control and sham groups. The exposed group showed reduced sperm count and viability along with testicular histopathological changes. Oxidative stress markers shifted…
An egg case study: Chronic exposure to AC electromagnetic fields results in hyperactivity in thornback ray (Raja clavata L.) embryos.

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study examined thornback ray embryos chronically exposed to alternating-current electromagnetic fields (1.8–4.6 μT) across embryogenesis (~20 weeks), relevant to subsea power cables. Exposed embryos showed higher activity levels than non-exposed embryos, while no differences were reported for development…
