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 clinical study evaluated whether adding ELF-EMF exposure to a 4-week rehabilitation program affects antioxidant and clinical status in ischemic stroke patients. Fifty-seven patients were assigned to an ELF-EMF group or a non-ELF-EMF group, with the exposed group receiving 40 Hz, 7 mT for 15 minutes per day over…

This animal study tested four frequency-band EMF exposures (1–50,000 Hz variants) in an ovariectomized mouse model of osteoporosis over 8 weeks (3 h/day). Low- and band-pass exposures increased bone formation markers and osteogenesis-related gene expression, while high-pass exposure decreased both formation and…

This study develops a quantum-mechanical radical pair mechanism model to examine how an extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) might influence early chemical hepatocarcinogenesis in rats. The model evaluates singlet-state recombination and quantum yield under a low magnetic field effect, proposing…

This in vitro materials study compares microwave irradiation versus conventional water-bath heating for synthesizing HPMC-graft-(PVA-co-acrylic acid) hydrogels loaded with captopril. The authors report that microwave-synthesized hydrogels had more uniformly porous structures and higher swelling ratios, with…

This study investigated 2 nm protein-stabilized gold nanoclusters in six mammalian cell types under 1 GHz electromagnetic field exposure. The authors report low intrinsic toxicity of the nanoclusters, but a significant decrease in cell viability when nanocluster-incubated cells were exposed to the 1 GHz field,…

This in vitro study evaluated microwave disinfection of dental stone casts contaminated with Bacillus subtilis under wet and dry conditions. After a drying step for the dry group (450 W for 15 minutes), both wet and dry casts were exposed to 900 W for 5 minutes and cultured to quantify CFU/mL. The authors report…

This laboratory study examined how UV-C radiation, an electromagnetic field, microwave radiation, and ultrasound affected polyphenolic compounds in chokeberry. Using UPLC-PDA-MS/MS, the authors report that UV-C, microwaves, and ultrasound generally increased several polyphenolic groups, while the electromagnetic…

This in vitro study compared microwave irradiation with chemical (2% glutaraldehyde, Corega tablets) and mechanical (brushing) methods for disinfecting complete dentures contaminated with two microorganisms. Microwave irradiation (650 W for 3 minutes) and both chemical methods showed no detectable bacterial growth at…

This in vitro study tested 900-W microwave radiation regimens (3, 5, or 7 minutes) to disinfect type IV dental stone surfaces contaminated with S. aureus, E. coli, or C. albicans. The authors report that 5 and 7 minutes achieved sterilization for S. aureus, while 3 minutes did not fully sterilize; all times were…

This cross-sectional online study surveyed Malaysian respondents about smartphone addiction behavior and awareness of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Most participants reported smartphone dependency and reported being aware of EMR, with no significant difference in addiction behavior by accommodation type (home vs…

This animal experimental study reports that low-intensity ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation and a low-intensity low-frequency magnetic field, applied after radiation exposure, enhanced metabolic and regenerative processes in rat testes and liver. The magnetic field was associated with increased…

This computational study investigates nonlinear membrane-potential dynamics in a Fitzhugh-Nagumo single-neuron model that includes an external electromagnetic radiation term. The authors report that increasing the frequency of an external transmembrane current leads to mode selection among periodic, quasi-periodic,…

This paper describes an in vitro gene transfection technique termed water-in-oil droplet electroporation, using an intense DC electric field to deform a droplet between electrodes. The deformation can cause an instantaneous short circuit, during which transient membrane pores are reported to form and permit exogenous…
