This animal experiment exposed rats to 6 GHz RF-EMR from a signal generator for 4 hours/day over 6 weeks and assessed plasma oxidative stress markers and kidney histology. The RF-EMR group showed lower plasma GSH, CAT, SOD, and MDA levels than control and sham groups, while cortisol did not differ. The authors also…

This occupational study compared oxidative stress biomarkers across four groups: control, noise-only, ELF-EMF-only, and combined noise plus ELF-EMF exposure in power plant workers. The combined exposure group showed higher lipid peroxidation (MDA) and lower antioxidant-related measures (GSH and TAC) versus controls,…

This in vitro study exposed yeast suspensions to 2.45 GHz near-field microwave radiation at 2 cm and 4 cm for 20 or 60 minutes. It reports oxidative-stress-related changes (reduced antioxidant activity with increased membrane permeability) after 20 minutes at 2 cm, an effect not reproduced by conventional heating.…

This animal study examined whether 50 Hz electromagnetic field exposure (7 mT) affects heat-escape behavior and oxidative balance in American cockroaches. The authors report increased latency to escape from noxious heat after 24 h, 72 h, and 7 days of exposure. Biomarkers suggested oxidative stress, with elevated…

This animal study examined liver outcomes in rat offspring 60 days after prenatal exposure to a 900 MHz electromagnetic field for 24 hours/day during gestation. The exposed group showed biochemical changes consistent with oxidative stress (higher MDA, lower GSH) and elevated liver enzymes (ALT, AST). Histopathology…

This animal study examined whether extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs) from a high-voltage source alter trace element concentrations in rat teeth and whether antioxidants (melatonin and glutathione) modify these changes. Rats were exposed 8 hours/day for 26 or 52 days, with separate sham…

This animal study examined prenatal exposure to 10 GHz microwave radiation starting at gestation day 0.25 or 11.25 until term. At 3 weeks of age, offspring from exposed pregnancies showed reduced brain and body weight and biochemical changes consistent with oxidative stress compared with sham controls. The authors…

This animal experiment randomized 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats to 900 MHz electromagnetic radiation exposure (4 h/day for 18 days) or no exposure. The exposed group showed increased oxidative stress markers in liver tissue (higher MDA, lower GSH) and reported histopathological changes, along with increased apoptosis…

This rat study examined whether selenium supplementation modifies antioxidant-related changes associated with sub-acute static magnetic field exposure. The authors report that SMF exposure altered tissue selenium levels and antioxidant enzyme activities in a tissue-specific manner, including decreased selenium and…

This rat study examined whether EMR from GSM mobile phones affects oxidant/antioxidant status. Compared with controls, exposed rats had lower plasma antioxidant vitamins (C, E, A), reduced glutathione, and lower CAT and SOD activities. The acute exposure condition was reported to produce larger decreases than the…
