RF Safe publishes a commentary disputing Media Bias Fact Check’s (MBFC) labeling of RF Safe as “pseudoscience” with “mixed factual reporting” and “low credibility.” The post argues MBFC mischaracterized RF Safe’s content as overstating evidence about cell phones and health, claiming RF Safe generally uses cautious,…

This animal study exposed adult male C57BL/6 mice to a 4.9 GHz radiofrequency field for three weeks (1 hour/day) and compared them with a sham group. The abstract reports altered fecal microbiome composition with reduced diversity in the RF group, along with 258 significantly differentially abundant fecal…
The Extremely-Low-Frequency Electromagnetic Field Affects Apoptosis and Oxidative-Stress-Related Genes and Proteins in the Porcine Endometrium-An In Vitro Study.

Jan 1, 2024
This in vitro study exposed porcine endometrial slices collected during the peri-implantation period to a 50 Hz extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field for 2 hours. The authors report decreased CASP7 and increased NOS3/eNOS mRNA and protein abundance after exposure, along with increases in additional…

This animal study evaluated whether low-intensity EMF devices used to increase dissolved oxygen have collateral effects on freshwater fish. In captive sunfish, the authors report no significant differences in stress physiology biomarkers, behavior, or putative aerobic capacity between EMF and control conditions over…

Jan 1, 2021
This ex vivo animal-tissue study tested whether ELF-EMF exposure (50 or 120 Hz for 2 or 4 hours) alters estrogenic activity in pig myometrium during the peri-implantation period. The authors report EMF-associated changes in estrogen-related gene transcripts and aromatase abundance, with progesterone diminishing some…

This animal experiment randomized 96 male Wistar rats to RF-EMF exposures (900/1800 MHz mobile phone or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi), 8 Gy x-ray, or combinations, and assessed kidney function markers and histopathology. Creatinine was reported significantly higher and the BUN/Cr ratio significantly lower in the Wi-Fi group versus…
Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (EMF) generates alterations in the synthesis and secretion of oestradiol-17β (E) in uterine tissues: An in vitro study.

Jan 1, 2018
This in vitro study exposed porcine endometrial and myometrial slices to extremely low-frequency EMF (50 or 120 Hz, 8 mT) for 2 or 4 hours, with or without progesterone. The authors report frequency- and time-dependent changes in oestradiol-17β secretion and CYP19A3 mRNA expression, with fewer changes when…

Jan 1, 2017
This in vitro study used proteome-wide semi-quantitative mass spectrometry to assess molecular changes after short-term exposure to ELF (50 Hz), UMTS (2.1 GHz), and WiFi (5.8 GHz) in human and mouse cell types. The authors report that fewer than 1% of quantified proteins changed slightly in abundance and that…
