The effects of the electromagnetic fields on the biochemical components, enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems of tea L.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2019
This laboratory study examined how electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment affects biochemical and antioxidant-related components in tea samples, including flavonoid markers measured by HPLC. The abstract reports that 30-minute exposures generally increased several flavonoids compared with 60-minute exposures, with the…

Jan 1, 2019
This review describes non-ionizing radiation (EMF and optical radiation) methods used in Swedish health care and considers anticipated exposure levels and potential hazards. The authors report that acute effects cannot be ruled out for MRI, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and electrosurgery, and that optical…
Association between media coverage and prevalence of idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic field in Taiwan.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2018
This ecological study examined whether trends in newspaper coverage about EMF/IEI-EMF in Taiwan were associated with changes in reported IEI-EMF prevalence. The authors report that media coverage rose up to 2007 and then declined through 2012, mirroring a decline in IEI-EMF prevalence between 2007 and 2012. In…

Jan 1, 2018
This rat study examined whether electromagnetic fields from a mobile phone jammer affect blood cell factors. Rats were exposed 8 hours/day, 5 days/week for 40 days and compared with control and sham groups. The authors report significant changes in multiple hematological indices, with some measures unchanged…

Jan 1, 2018
This animal study examined whether electromagnetic field (EMF) pretreatment has lasting (“legacy”) effects on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and whether EMF-pretreated BMSC sheets improve fracture nonunion healing in rats. The authors report increased BMSC proliferation and enhanced…
Wireless control of cellular function by activation of a novel protein responsive to electromagnetic fields.

Jan 1, 2018
This study reports the identification of an electromagnetic perceptive gene (EPG) from glass catfish and its expression in mammalian cells, neuronal cultures, and rat brain. The authors report that magnetic/EMF stimulation remotely increased intracellular calcium in EPG-expressing cells and neurons. They also report…
Precision knockdown of EGFR gene expression using radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2017
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…
Symptom attribution and risk perception in individuals with idiopathic environmental intolerance to electromagnetic fields and in the general population.
Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2014
This cross-sectional study compared EMF-related health perceptions and symptom attribution among self-identified EMF-sensitive individuals from an internet panel, non-sensitive individuals, and an NGO-recruited IEI-EMF group. The internet-panel sensitive group reported more non-specific symptoms, higher perceived EMF…
[The problem of participation of different brain regions in the reactions to the low-intensity magnetic and electromagnetic field exposure].
Research

Jan 1, 2012
This animal experiment assessed integral and pulsed bioelectric activity across rabbit brain regions during exposure to low-intensity magnetic and electromagnetic fields. The authors report that brain-region participation in CNS reactions varied across exposure parameters and conditions and depended strongly on…
[Evaluation of the occupational risk related to exposure to electromagnetic fields according to the EC Directive 2004/40 EC: exposure during pregnancy].

Jan 1, 2007
This article addresses occupational EMF exposure during pregnancy in the context of EU Directive 2004/40/EC, emphasizing the need for workplace risk evaluation. It notes that research evidence on pregnancy risks from occupational EMF exposure is currently scarce and inconclusive. The authors also report insufficient…
