This in vitro study used giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) to examine effects of an 18 GHz electromagnetic field on membrane behavior. The authors report increased membrane permeability after exposure, inferred from internalisation of 23.5 nm hydrophilic silica nanospheres. Complementary molecular dynamics…

This geo-epidemiological population-based study in Limousin (France) assessed modeled residential UHF-EMF exposure from GSM antennas and ALS incidence from 2000–2012. The authors report a statistically significant exposure–response trend and higher ALS risk in the highest exposure category versus non-exposure in both…

This in vitro study evaluated whether high-frequency electromagnetic fields at 900 and 1800 MHz affect bacterial DNA, growth, and antibiotic susceptibility after 2 hours of exposure. The authors report no detectable DNA differences between exposed and non-exposed bacteria for the species described. Growth and…

An in vitro study examined red blood cells exposed to an 18 GHz electromagnetic field and assessed uptake of nanospheres. The authors report that EMF exposure enabled nanosphere uptake into RBCs, with different translocation behavior for 23.5 nm versus 46.3 nm particles. Uptake was reported to increase with higher…
