RF Safe
Nov 25, 2025
RF Safe presents the “S4-Mito-Spin” framework as a hypothesis aiming to unify proposed non-thermal biological effects reported in some EMF studies (e.g., oxidative stress, DNA damage, fertility effects, and tumors in animal models). The article describes a multi-mechanism model involving voltage-gated channel forced…

Jan 1, 2025
This paper describes the development of a Bus-Exposure Matrix (BEM) to retrospectively estimate Swiss bus drivers’ exposures to 10 physicochemical hazards, including electric and magnetic fields. Measurements in representative buses were combined with technical inventories and INLA modeling to estimate annual…

Jan 1, 2025
This engineering study modeled and tested a distributed wearable RF EMF measurement approach intended to reduce body-proximity effects on personal exposure meter readings. Numerical simulations covered 24 far-field wireless exposure scenarios (100–3600 MHz), and physical tests with three probes were also performed.…

This modeling study estimated SAR in a multi-layer head model from a wearable IoT device’s Wi‑Fi/Bluetooth antenna. SAR was reported to be up to 10× higher when the antenna was placed in a headband versus on a helmet. The authors suggest that devices emitting below 3 mW EIRP may be considered environmentally…

Jan 1, 2019
This review describes non-ionizing radiation (EMF and optical radiation) methods used in Swedish health care and considers anticipated exposure levels and potential hazards. The authors report that acute effects cannot be ruled out for MRI, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and electrosurgery, and that optical…
Experimental study of relationship between biological hazards of low-dose radiofrequency exposure and energy flow density in Spirostomum ambiguum infusoria exposed at a mobile connection frequency (1 GHz).

Jan 1, 2011
This experimental study exposed Spirostomum ambiguum infusoria to 1 GHz radiofrequency fields at 5 and 50 μW/cm² and reports reduced motor activity. The effect was described as threshold-like, appearing after a certain exposure duration and not increasing with longer exposure. The authors report different 'safe'…
