This animal study used qRT-PCR to assess whether 900 MHz radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure alters neuropeptide-related gene transcription in Ixodes ricinus synganglia. The abstract reports that 40 V/m exposure for at least 60 minutes significantly suppressed transcript levels of sifa, mip, and their…

This animal study exposed one-day-old worker honey bees to 900 MHz RF-EMF at 12, 28, or 61 V/m for 15 minutes, 1 hour, or 3 hours, with an unexposed control group. The authors report changes in hemolymph enzyme activity and in expression of several stress-related genes following exposure. They state the pattern…

This animal study examined whether exposing Dermacentor reticulatus tick eggs to 900 MHz RF-EMF for 30, 60, or 90 minutes affects the size of hatched larvae. The authors report that the 60-minute exposure group produced larvae with larger measurements across four body traits compared with unexposed controls and other…

This animal study tested whether Ixodes ricinus ticks show behavioral responses to 900 MHz radio-frequency electromagnetic fields in a radiation-shielded tube. Ticks were attracted to the irradiated area, and the attraction was reported as stronger among ticks infected with Rickettsia spp. The authors raise the…

This in vitro study examined whether RF electromagnetic fields (900, 2400, 7500 MHz) modify the toxicity of silver and graphene nanoparticles in human fibroblast cultures. The authors report EMF-associated changes in cytotoxicity and ROS that depended on nanoparticle type, shape, and concentration, with the strongest…

This animal study examined whether 900 MHz EMF exposure during mid to late adolescence affects the liver in female rats. Compared with control and sham groups, the exposed group showed occasional liver histopathological irregularities. The exposed group also had significantly decreased 8-OHdG and SOD levels, and the…

This animal study exposed honey bee queen larvae to RF-EMF from a common mobile phone (GSM 900 MHz) across all pre-adult developmental stages for 14 days. The authors report a significantly reduced queen hatching ratio, while mating success was not affected. For queens that successfully mated, subsequent colony…

This rat study examined 900 MHz EMF exposure effects on testes and whether luteolin modifies those effects. EMF exposure was associated with reduced testicular cell counts, lower testis weight and serum testosterone, increased SOD activity, and changes in sperm morphology versus controls. Luteolin co-treatment was…

This National Toxicology Program technical report describes 900 MHz whole-body RFR exposures (GSM and CDMA) in male and female Sprague Dawley rats from in utero through up to 2 years. The report concludes clear evidence of carcinogenic activity in males for both modulations based on malignant schwannoma of the heart,…

This animal study examined kidney effects in female rats exposed to continuous 900 MHz EMF for 1 hour daily during postnatal days 35–59. The authors report multiple histopathological alterations in kidneys of the EMF-exposed group, while control and sham groups showed no pathology. TOS and OSI were reported to be…

This NTP technical report describes long-term rat studies exposing animals to 900 MHz GSM and CDMA-modulated radiofrequency radiation at whole-body SAR levels of 0, 1.5, 3, and 6 W/kg, including exposure beginning before birth. The abstract reports NTP concluded there was "clear evidence" for malignant schwannoma of…

This animal study exposed male Sprague-Dawley rats to 900 MHz GSM mobile phone RF radiation for 4 hours and assessed ERα promoter methylation in colon tissue. The authors report altered ERα methylation patterns versus controls after RF exposure. They also report no radioadaptive response in ERα methylation following…

This animal study examined whether long-term 900 MHz GSM-like microwave exposure affects experimentally induced cutaneous candidiasis in BALB/c mice. Exposed mice reportedly had delayed wound healing and higher Candida loads in skin lesions compared with unexposed mice. Following systemic Candida challenge, exposed…

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 rat study examined 900 MHz EMF exposure for 60 minutes per day over 15 days and assessed hippocampal and cerebellar outcomes, behavior, and serum enzyme activity. The EMF-only group showed significant neuronal cell losses in multiple brain regions and worse passive avoidance performance compared with other…

This animal study examined whether omega-3 modifies adrenal gland changes in rats exposed to 900 MHz electromagnetic fields. Rats exposed 60 minutes/day for 15 days showed significantly increased adrenal gland volume versus controls. Omega-3 co-treatment was associated with significantly lower adrenal gland volume…

This animal study exposed Eisenia fetida earthworms to 900 MHz electromagnetic fields at 10–120 V/m for 2 hours (with additional tests of longer exposure, modulation, and recovery). The authors report significant DNA modifications across exposure treatments and a decrease in probe hybridisation sites persisting after…

This in vitro study assessed whether RF-EMF exposure from a GSM 900 MHz mobile phone simulator and a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi router alters bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics. The authors report significant changes in inhibition zone diameters and bacterial growth rate after exposure. They also describe an exposure window…

This rat study examined whether pulse-modulated 900 MHz and 1800 MHz RF exposure affects blood-brain barrier permeability using Evans blue dye. The abstract reports increased permeability in male rats at both frequencies (stronger at 1800 MHz) and in female rats at 900 MHz but not at 1800 MHz. The authors suggest…
