This materials proof-of-concept study explored using radiofrequency EMF to heat magnetic nanoparticles dispersed in PLLA to modulate polymer properties. Heating was monitored by infrared camera, and polymer changes were assessed by differential scanning calorimetry and nanoindentation. The authors report that EMF…

This laboratory study examined radiofrequency EMF exposure between 1 and 5.9 GHz as a method to control yeast growth relevant to food spoilage. The authors report reduced yeast viability at all tested frequencies and note that antenna-to-sample distance affected the outcome. Electron microscopy findings are described…

This in vitro study tested 50 Hz, 1 mT ELF-EMF exposure (8 h/day for 21 days) and betaine (10 mM) during osteogenic induction of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. The authors report ELF-EMF decreased osteogenic differentiation and reduced RUNX2 and OCN gene expression compared with non-EMF conditions.…

This in vitro study tested how varying ELF-EMF parameters (frequency, flux density, duration, and continuous vs switching exposure) affect breast cancer and normal breast epithelial cell lines. The authors report that an optimized switching exposure pattern (7.83 ± 0.3 Hz, 1 mT) reduced viability of MDA-MB-231 cells…

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 examined whether low-frequency electromagnetic field (LF-EMF) exposure affects viability of human oral mucosa keratinocytes. Apoptosis (early/late) and necrosis were measured by flow cytometry, including conditions with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or minocycline. The authors report that LF-EMF, alone…

This pooled case series evaluated amplitude-modulated 27.12 MHz RF EMF delivered via the TheraBionic P1 device (3 hours daily) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, comparing outcomes to historical controls. The authors report longer median overall survival for Child-Pugh A patients versus comparable…

This animal study evaluated whether ELF-EMF exposure affects recovery-related outcomes after cerebral ischemia in rats. Rats exposed to 50 Hz, 1 mT ELF-EMF for 2 hours daily over 28 days showed better Morris water maze performance than untreated rats. The study also reports increased hippocampal neurogenesis markers…

This in vitro and animal study evaluated whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure (1 mT, 45 Hz, 8 h/day) combined with Fe-based nanomagnetic particles enhances osteogenesis. The authors report no detectable cytotoxicity and increased osteogenic markers/proteins with combined NMP + EMF exposure, alongside…

This article reviews Italian jurisprudence on alleged occupational tumours linked to RF EMF exposure (notably from wireless phones), with some cases also involving other RF sources or ELF magnetic fields. It contrasts court decisions that recognized occupational causation with others that rejected it, emphasizing how…

This narrative review synthesizes evidence up to September 2019 on health risks from radiofrequency exposure emitted by mobile phones, in the context of IARC's 2013 Group 2B classification. The authors report that the literature does not show a clear risk profile and cannot definitively confirm or refute a health…

This in vitro experimental study exposed two Lactobacillus probiotic cultures to 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi RF-EMF from a router for 15–60 minutes and compared them with sham-exposed controls. The authors report increased bacterial growth after 30–60 minutes of exposure, with no growth difference at 15 minutes. Lactic acid…

This paper presents an in vitro, noncontact solenoid-coil device designed to deliver intermediate-frequency induced electromagnetic fields that generate electric fields in cell and tissue cultures. The system aims to improve field characterization and reduce conductive heating compared with electrode-based approaches…

This multi-generation animal study exposed worms continuously to 50 Hz, 3 mT extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields and assessed outcomes in the 15th generation. The study reports increased body length, higher ATP content and ATP synthase activity, and upregulated ATP-related gene expression in exposed worms.…

This in vitro study exposed murine microglial (N9) and human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells to ELF-modulated 935 MHz RF-EMF at 4 W/kg for 2 or 24 hours. The authors report no changes in apoptosis, cell viability, or AIF across conditions. They report increased ATG5 after 24 hours and a transient glutathione increase…

This animal study evaluated whether low-frequency EMF exposure affects bioengineered hair follicle generation in nude mice injected with a mixture of epidermal stem cells and dermal papilla cells. Histology (H&E) at 7 or 14 days suggested more hair follicle eruption and higher density of hair follicle-like structures…
