This in vitro study exposed human fetal and adult fibroblasts to 25 GHz microwave radiation and assessed multiple genotoxic and cellular endpoints. The authors report no evidence of direct DNA damage and no apoptosis or changes in prosurvival signalling proteins. However, they report increased total and…

This paper reports the isolation of strain M26 from garden soil that was pre-treated with microwave radiation, followed by polyphasic taxonomic characterization. Based on morphological, chemotaxonomic, and 16S rRNA phylogenetic analyses, the authors propose the new species Streptosporangium minutum. The strain is…

This in vitro study compared ginsenosides extracted using pulsed electric field (PEF) versus solvent cold soak extraction (SCSE). The abstract reports that PEF extracts had higher antioxidant capacity and provided greater protection against hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress in HEK-293 cells, including…

This in vitro study tested whether an extremely low-frequency EMF (100 Hz, 100 G) could enhance temozolomide cytotoxicity in human glioma cell lines (U87 and T98G). The authors report that combined EMF and temozolomide increased apoptosis relative to either treatment alone and was accompanied by changes in…

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 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 engineering study deposited Ga-doped ZnO thin films via radio frequency sputtering and examined how Ga content affects optoelectronic properties and electrical stability. The abstract reports non-monotonic changes in conductivity with increasing Ga content alongside degraded crystallinity, while maintaining >80%…

This animal and in vitro study reports a method to lyse tumor cells mechanically using targeted superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles rotated by a weak alternating magnetic field. Nude mice with head and neck tumors received cetuximab-coated nanoparticles and 4 Hz field exposures for 30 minutes on alternating…

This materials study examines how a high magnetic field affects crystallization during isothermal annealing of [(FeCo)BSi]Nb4 bulk metallic glass. The authors report that the field promotes α-(Fe,Co) precipitation and suppresses boride formation, yielding a nanocomposite microstructure with α-(Fe,Co) dispersed in an…

This case report describes a paediatric burn injury resulting from a mobile phone lithium-ion battery explosion. The patient was treated with selective enzymatic debridement, which the authors note is simple, minimally invasive, and safe. The report concerns an acute thermal injury mechanism rather than EMF exposure.

This engineering study investigated RF-induced power deposition near straight insulated leads in an MRI context under different incident electric field profiles. Using 3-D electromagnetic simulations, the authors compared simulation-derived power deposition with implant model predictions. For the setups examined,…
