This engineering study describes and simulates a helmet radio-frequency phased array applicator for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with targeted RF heating. Using EMF and temperature simulations in a phantom and human head model (including a modeled glioblastoma tumor volume), the authors…

This engineering/simulation study evaluates RF applicator array designs for Thermal Magnetic Resonance (ThermalMR), which combines MRI with RF hyperthermia for brain tumor theranostics. Using EMF and temperature simulations at 7.0 T, 9.4 T, and 10.5 T, hybrid loop+SGBT dipole arrays are reported to provide superior…

This study examined whether exposing maize seeds to electromagnetic fields (23, 70, 118 μT) for 15 days alters physicochemical properties of starch isolated from the resulting grains. SEM and X-ray diffraction results suggest starch morphology and orthorhombic crystalline structure were largely unchanged, though…

This engineering study addresses stray magnetic fields as a performance-limiting imperfection for the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), where simulations indicate sensitivity to fields on the order of 0.1 nT. It presents DC and AC magnetic characterization of two Mumetal® samples (annealed in final form vs…

This in vitro and rat-model study evaluated sinusoidal low-frequency EMF combined with a PCL/nHA scaffold seeded with BMSCs for intervertebral fusion. The authors report enhanced osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and pro-osteogenic effects of conditioned medium from EMF-treated BMSCs, with suggested involvement of…

This in vitro study exposed human mesenchymal stem cell pellets undergoing chondrogenesis to simulated microgravity (SMG), low-frequency EMF (5 mT, 15 Hz), or both for 3 weeks. SMG significantly changed gene expression and reduced chondrogenic marker expression (including COL2A1). LF-EMF alone showed no…

This article presents a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis on radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure from electronic devices and effects on the fertility system. The authors cite growing public concern and conflicting findings in prior studies as motivation. The protocol plans broad database…

This study reports a technology that records a specific radiofrequency electromagnetic energy signal associated with EGFR siRNA and applies it to cells. The abstract describes reductions in EGFR mRNA and protein expression versus controls, with specificity assessed using RNA microarray and antibody dot blot array. It…

This laboratory study examined Rayleigh-Bénard convection in liquid gallium under varying strengths of a uniform imposed horizontal magnetic field. Using ultrasonic velocity profiling and temperature monitoring, the authors mapped a regime diagram across Ra and Q and identified five flow regimes. The results describe…

This animal study tested whether pre-exposure to microwave radiation from a GSM mobile phone simulator could induce a radioadaptive response to a subsequent lethal whole-body gamma dose. In mice, pre-exposure to microwave radiation, low dose rate gamma radiation, or both was associated with significantly different…

This engineering-focused study evaluates pulsed electric field (PEF)-assisted, solvent-free modification of pectin from sugar beet pulp. The authors report that degree of esterification increased with greater PEF intensity and energy input, with supporting evidence from FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, and NMR. Modified…

This engineering materials study reports fabrication and characterization of nanocomposite dielectrics in a PbO-BaO-Na2O-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramic system. X-ray diffraction and microstructural observations describe temperature-dependent phase formation with nanometer-sized crystallites dispersed in a glass matrix. The…

This engineering study evaluated long-term encapsulation and packaging reliability of a fully wireless 100-channel Utah Slant Electrode Array system in vitro. The device was soaked in PBS for over 12 months while being wirelessly powered/configured at 2.765 MHz and transmitting an FSK-modulated 900 MHz RF signal. The…
