This PubMed-listed review examines microbiological hazards in dehydrated foods and evaluates intervention and drying technologies to improve safety. It includes discussion of electromagnetic field-assisted drying approaches (e.g., microwave, radiofrequency, infrared) as processing tools for microbial control and dehydration efficiency. The EMF content is framed in an industrial food-processing context rather than human RF-EMF exposure or health risk from environmental sources.
What the strongest literature actually shows now
This RF Safe article argues that the “strongest” RF-EMF literature supports concern about cancer-related findings, emphasizing non-monotonic dose–response patterns in the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) rat study and citing additional analyses and animal studies. It reports that FDA evaluations have downplayed the human relevance of NTP results due to high exposures and inconsistencies, and counters that some effects may occur at lower exposure levels than commonly claimed. The piece also references the Ramazzini Institute rat study as supportive evidence at lower whole-body SARs and mentions a 2024 PLOS ONE paper analyzing Ramazzini tumors, but provides limited detail in the excerpt.
DNA Damage Analysis in Blood Tissue & Physiopathological Evaluation of the Effect of Quercetin on Kidney Tissue in 2600 MHz EMF Exposure
This rat study assessed 30-day 2600 MHz EMF exposure effects on kidney tissue and DNA damage in blood lymphocytes, with an EMF+quercetin group included. Kidney histopathology and immunohistochemistry were reported as similar across groups, and oxidative stress markers did not significantly change. The EMF-only group showed significant DNA damage in lymphocytes by Comet assay.
Methodologically solid and analytically rigorous: the evaluations of our systematic review on RF-EMF and animal cancer are reliable
No abstract is available in the provided material. From the title, the article appears to defend or affirm the methodological rigor and reliability of evaluations in the authors' systematic review on RF-EMF exposure and animal cancer. Specific results regarding carcinogenic effects are not stated in the provided text.
Empowering the Serbian EMF RATEL System for Monitoring RF-EMF Through Drive Test
This engineering/monitoring paper describes enhancements to the Serbian EMF RATEL system, which has continuously monitored RF-EMF since 2017, by adding drive test functionality to improve spatial coverage. The authors report preliminary quantitative drive test measurements and validation of the upgraded approach. The work emphasizes that characterizing spatial and temporal RF-EMF patterns can support exposure assessment relevant to public health risk evaluation.
Evaluation of Exposure Assessment Methods and Procedures for Induction Hobs (Stoves)
This exposure-assessment study evaluated magnetic-field and contact-current exposures from modern induction hobs using IEC-based measurement procedures, 3D field scanning, and numerical dosimetry in anatomical models. It reports large between-hob variability in exposure and states that IEC 62233 may substantially underestimate user exposure. The authors argue that design modifications can reduce exposure and that product standards should be revised to better reflect realistic user scenarios.
Dual Evaluation and Spatial Analysis of RF-EMF Exposure in 5G: Theoretical Extrapolations and Direct Measurements
This exposure assessment study evaluated 5G RF-EMF exposure using both theoretical extrapolations and direct measurements in semiurban and urban settings, including a campus case study. Measured and extrapolated exposure levels were reported to be within ICNIRP recommended limits, even under high network data demand. The authors also report a strong correlation between theoretical and instantaneous field exposures, supporting the validity of their dual-method framework.
A novel approach for assessments of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields exposure in buildings near telecommunication infrastructure
This paper proposes a new methodology to better assess indoor RF-EMF exposure in buildings near telecommunication base station antennas by refining measurement-point selection. Implemented in four multi-storey buildings in Natal, Brazil, indoor electric field peaks and averages were reported to be substantially higher than ground-level measurements. Although the highest indoor levels remained below ICNIRP recommended limits, the authors argue current regulatory evaluation methods may underestimate indoor exposure in certain building locations.
Evaluation of Personal Radiation Exposure from Wireless Signals in Indoor and Outdoor Environments
This exposure assessment measured personal RF electric field strength in multiple indoor and outdoor micro-environments in Malaysia using an ExpoM-RF 4 meter and modeled exposure with machine learning (FCNN, XG Boost) and linear regression. Reported exposures were usually below the stated public limit (61.4 V/m), but maximum values in dense urban areas with many base stations were reported to approach 56.7365 V/m. The authors frame near-threshold maxima in high-density areas as a potential health risk and recommend caution and monitoring.
Electromagnetic fields regulate iron metabolism: From mechanisms to applications
This review synthesizes evidence that electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure is associated in the literature with changes in systemic and cellular iron metabolism, with reported effects varying by EMF parameters, exposure duration, and biological context. It proposes mechanistic pathways involving iron-containing proteins/tissues, membrane and ion channel modulation, and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The authors frame iron-metabolism modulation as relevant to both therapeutic applications and safety evaluation, while emphasizing inconsistencies and the need for standardized exposure protocols.
Evaluation of the Thyroids of Offsprings Exposed to 2450 MHz Radiofrequency Radiation During Pregnancy: A Sixth Month Data
This animal study examined whether continuous prenatal exposure to 2450 MHz radiofrequency radiation (simulating Wi‑Fi) affects thyroid tissue in rat offspring at 6 months. The exposed group showed significantly increased mononuclear cell infiltration and vascular congestion in thyroid histology. TUNEL-positive cell percentage and H2A.X antibody levels did not differ significantly between groups.
Evaluation of Electrochemical Information Transfer System: I . Effect of Electric Fields on Living Organisms
This 1976 animal study evaluated the effects of weak ELF electric fields similar to those associated with Project Seafarer on mice. The abstract reports that electric field exposure acted as a biological stressor, with effects involving the central nervous and endocrine systems. It is presented as part of broader research assessing potential physiological changes from high-power, low-frequency electromagnetic communication systems.
