Jan 1, 2023
This mouse experiment evaluated whether crocin (50 mg/kg) mitigates liver and kidney injury associated with 2100 MHz electromagnetic field exposure. EMF exposure was associated with increased serum markers of kidney and liver injury, reduced antioxidant enzyme activity, and histopathological/ultrastructural changes…

This animal study exposed one-day-old worker honey bees to 900 MHz RF-EMF at 12, 28, or 61 V/m for 15 minutes, 1 hour, or 3 hours, with an unexposed control group. The authors report changes in hemolymph enzyme activity and in expression of several stress-related genes following exposure. They state the pattern…

This in vivo animal study examined how low-frequency electromagnetic field exposure affects antioxidant status in Wistar rats. The authors report frequency-dependent changes in antioxidant enzyme activity and hydroperoxide content in blood plasma. They also propose that LF EMF may stimulate low levels of ROS that…

This animal study exposed the mollusk Onchidium struma to 50 Hz ELF-EMF at 100 μT or 500 μT for up to one week and assessed immune-related cell counts, enzyme activities, and transcriptomic changes. The 100 μT group showed increased total coelomocyte and spherulocyte density versus control and 500 μT, while some cell…

Jan 1, 2017
This rat study examined 900 MHz EMF exposure for 60 minutes per day over 15 days and assessed hippocampal and cerebellar outcomes, behavior, and serum enzyme activity. The EMF-only group showed significant neuronal cell losses in multiple brain regions and worse passive avoidance performance compared with other…

Jan 1, 2015
This animal study examined low-intensity 900 MHz electromagnetic radiation (25 μW/cm2) and its effects on rat brain and blood serum enzymes linked to energy metabolism. The authors report that brain creatine kinase activity was the most radiosensitive among the enzymes measured and propose it as a marker of RF…

Jan 1, 2015
This study evaluated gamma radiation and static magnetic field treatments on soybean seeds stored for six months and then subjected to accelerated ageing. The authors report that certain gamma doses (3–5 kGy) and magnetic field strengths (100–200 mT) helped maintain seed protein/oil characteristics and antioxidant…

Jan 1, 2012
This in vitro study tested whether 900 MHz GSM mobile phone radiation affects ferritin measurements in human serum wells. Exposed wells (30 minutes, speech-mode phone) showed a statistically significant decrease in ferritin compared with unexposed controls. The authors propose RF exposure may influence…
