Ambient RF-EMF exposure in surgical operating rooms from telecommunication antennas and Wi-Fi sources

Research PubMed: RF-EMF health Jan 22, 2026

This PubMed-listed study measured ambient radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) levels during surgical operations in 15 hospital operating rooms in Albacete, Spain, focusing on contributions from telecommunication antennas and Wi‑Fi. Using an exposimeter logging every 5 seconds across 67 procedures (~120 hours), the authors report that observed ambient RF‑EMF levels were comparable to other European indoor microenvironment studies. They report exposures in all operating rooms remained below 0.4% of the ICNIRP (2020) reference level, with the highest recorded mean value on the 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi band.

The Anti‑Radiation Phone Case Market Runs on Percentages. RF Safe Refuses to Sell One.

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe critiques the anti-radiation phone case market for relying on headline percentage-blocking claims that may reflect tests of shielding material rather than real-world phone behavior in a case on a live network. The article argues that poorly designed or misused shielding cases can interfere with a phone’s signal and prompt higher transmit power, potentially increasing exposure in some scenarios. It positions RF Safe’s QuantaCase/TruthCase as avoiding percentage marketing claims and emphasizes a systems-engineering approach to testing and use, while noting that health causation from typical consumer RF exposure remains debated by authorities.

Why RF Safe’s TruthCase Refuses the “99% Blocking” Game — and Why That’s the Point

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe argues that “anti-radiation” phone case marketing based on universal “99% blocking” claims is misleading because real-world phone emissions vary with signal conditions, orientation, and how a case affects the antenna. The post positions RF Safe’s TruthCase/QuantaCase as more credible specifically because it refuses to advertise a single percentage reduction and instead emphasizes design constraints intended to avoid prompting a phone to increase transmit power. It cites a KPIX 5 (CBS San Francisco) test as an example of how flip cases can reduce exposure in some configurations but potentially increase it in others when used differently than intended.

RF Safe’s Market Position and Industry Skepticism

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 16, 2026

RF Safe argues that while it has operated since 1998 and emphasizes “physics-based” design and education, the broader anti-radiation phone case market is widely criticized for hype and potentially misleading “blocking” claims. The post says some experts consider the category ineffective or even counterproductive, including concerns that poorly designed cases may interfere with antennas and prompt phones to increase transmit power. It positions RF Safe’s QuantaCase/TruthCase as an outlier for transparency and design choices, while noting that independent 2026 testing is limited and some claims rely on demonstrations, older tests, and design critiques.

Rebutting Media Bias/Fact Check’s “Medium Credibility” Rating for RF Safe: How the S4 Mito Spin Framework Integrates Null Findings as Boundary Conditions

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 14, 2026

RF Safe publishes a rebuttal to Media Bias/Fact Check’s January 8, 2026 update that labeled RF Safe “Least Biased” and “Mostly Factual” but assigned “Medium Credibility,” citing perceived one-sided interpretation, product-sales conflicts, and alarmist framing. The post argues RF Safe’s “S4-Mito-Spin” framework incorporates null findings as boundary conditions to explain variability in RF/EMF study outcomes rather than ignoring negative results. It also claims major authorities’ positions are outdated in light of a cited WHO review and a U.S. court remand regarding FCC guidelines, and contends product sales are secondary to advocacy and education.

Neurotoxic effects of 3.5 GHz GSM-like RF exposure on cultured DRG neurons: a mechanistic insight into oxidative and apoptotic pathways

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2026

This in vitro study examined strictly non-thermal, GSM-like 3.5 GHz RF-EMF exposure in cultured mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons for 1–24 hours. The authors report time-dependent reductions in cell viability alongside increased ROS and changes consistent with mitochondria-mediated apoptosis (e.g., Bax/caspase-3 up, cytochrome c release, Bcl-2 down) and increased p75NTR. They conclude these findings provide mechanistic evidence of peripheral neuronal vulnerability to mid-band RF exposure and call for further in vivo research.

The effects of acute and chronic exposure of 3G UMTS 2100 MHz radiofrequency radiation on rat mismatch negativity

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2026

This rat study examined acute (1-week) and chronic (10-week) exposure to 2100 MHz radiofrequency radiation (3G UMTS-like) and assessed auditory mismatch negativity (MMN) alongside biochemical and histological brain measures. The abstract reports that acute exposure was associated with reduced MMN-related electrophysiological parameters and changes in GluR2 and GFAP with observed brain ultrastructural alterations. Chronic exposure showed opposite protein trends and enhanced MMN parameters versus chronic controls, and lipid peroxidation was not significantly different.

Inhibition of mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase by spinning oscillating magnetic fields causes toxicity in cancer cells

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2026

This in vitro study examines a spinning oscillating magnetic field (sOMF) generated by an Oncomagnetic device and reports selective toxicity in glioma cancer cells. The abstract attributes effects to ROS-dependent inhibition of mitochondrial complex I, with downstream oxidative stress, DNA damage, cell-cycle arrest, and apoptosis. It also reports no similar toxic effects in normal human astrocytes/astroglial cells under the studied conditions.

Measurement of Electromagnetic Fields Exposure to Humans from Electric Vehicles and Their Supply Equipment

Research RF Safe Research Library Jan 1, 2026

This study reports measurements of electric field intensity (E) and magnetic flux density (B) from electric vehicles (inside driver/passenger seats during driving) and EV supply equipment (near chargers during charging) up to 400 kHz in and around Chennai. E and B inside EVs and E around EVSEs were reported to be within ICNIRP/IEEE guideline limits. However, B around certain EVSE positions reportedly exceeded a general public threshold (~200 T), and a preliminary FEM analysis suggested relatively higher fields at charging infrastructure. The authors call for further research on long-term health impacts and recommend policy actions to mitigate exposure.

Parametric analysis of electromagnetic wave interactions with layered biological tissues for varying frequency, polarization, and fat thickness

Research PubMed: RF-EMF health Dec 26, 2025

This PubMed-listed study models how RF electromagnetic waves interact with a simplified three-layer tissue structure (skin–fat–muscle) across common ISM bands (433, 915, 2450, 5800 MHz), varying polarization (TE/TM), incidence angle, and fat thickness. Using a custom MATLAB pipeline combining multilayer transmission-line methods, Cole–Cole dielectric parameters, and a steady-state Pennes bioheat solution, the authors estimate reflection, absorption, and resulting temperature rise. The simulations report small temperature increases at lower frequencies (433–915 MHz) and larger superficial heating at 5.8 GHz under the modeled conditions, highlighting how fat thickness and wave parameters modulate dosimetry and thermal outcomes.

The 140-Year Low-Fidelity Experiment

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 13, 2025

This RF Safe position piece argues that long-term exposure to “non-native,” low-fidelity electromagnetic environments (including man-made RF) can degrade biological timing and coherence, contributing to downstream issues such as immune dysregulation and oxidative stress. It frames this as a systems-level claim rather than asserting RF “causes” specific diseases, and it cites proposed biophysical mechanisms (e.g., coupling into dense tissues, membrane voltage-sensing domains, mitochondrial/redox pathways). The article also references Heinrich Hertz’s historical exposure to early radio experiments and a retrospective medical analysis of his illness, while stating it is not claiming RF caused his condition.

Why QuantaCase™ Tops the List

Resources RF Safe Dec 10, 2025

RF Safe promotes its QuantaCase™ (also called TruthCase™) as the “best anti-radiation phone case,” citing a review of 2025 market options, expert analyses, and user feedback from platforms like Reddit and Amazon. The post argues that while no case provides 100% protection, QuantaCase’s approach is more credible than “fake” anti-radiation cases and should be paired with exposure-reduction behaviors (e.g., distance and wired tech). It also references a claimed WHO 2025 position on animal cancer certainty, but provides no verifiable details in the excerpt.

TruthCase™: Revolutionizing EMF Protection – Beyond Shields to Science, Habits, and Systemic Change

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 10, 2025

RF Safe promotes its TruthCase™ (also called QuantaCase®) as an EMF-focused phone case positioned less as a “miracle shield” and more as a habit-forming tool paired with consumer education and advocacy for regulatory reform. The article argues many “anti-radiation” cases are misleading or may increase exposure due to design choices, and it frames non-thermal biological effects as plausible, citing the NTP and Ramazzini animal studies. It also calls for broader policy changes (e.g., “Clean Ether Act,” Li‑Fi pilots) and encourages users to adopt exposure-reducing habits rather than rely on percentage-reduction marketing claims.

RF Safe’s Radical Marketing – Zero Ads, All Education in the EMF Safety World

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 10, 2025

RF Safe promotes an education-first, zero-paid-ad marketing approach for its EMF safety products, positioning itself against what it describes as a market full of overhyped or misleading “anti-radiation” gadgets. The article highlights RF Safe’s resources (e.g., a large study library and SAR tools) and argues its products (notably the QuantaCase) align with “physics” and avoid deceptive claims. It also repeats the founder’s personal story linking a family tragedy to prenatal EMF exposure and references various external claims (e.g., WHO animal findings, court criticism of FCC limits) without providing primary documentation in the text.

Grok’s Pick: The Best Anti-Radiation Phone Case in a Sea of Scams and Half-Measures

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 10, 2025

An RF Safe blog post written in a first-person “Grok” voice argues that many anti-radiation phone cases are ineffective or can increase exposure by causing phones to boost transmit power. It recommends the QuantaCase™ as the best option in late 2025, claiming it “delivers on physics” and avoids common design pitfalls seen in competing products. The post references WHO’s position that low-level exposure is not proven harmful in humans while also citing animal research (e.g., NTP) and proposed mechanisms (e.g., oxidative stress) to justify precautionary use.

Unmasking the Hidden Dangers of Your Phone’s Invisible Waves

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 10, 2025

RF Safe argues that radiofrequency (RF) emissions from phones and Wi‑Fi pose non-thermal biological risks and that current safety limits are outdated. The post cites animal studies (including NTP and Ramazzini) and references WHO and IARC positions while promoting a proposed mechanism framework (“S4‑Mito‑Spin”) and calling for regulatory and policy changes. It also includes advocacy claims about regulatory capture and promotes RF Safe products and exposure-reduction practices.

TruthCase™ · Clean Ether Action Hub

Independent Voices RF Safe Dec 9, 2025

RF Safe presents “TruthCase™ · Clean Ether Action Hub” as a combined product-and-policy hub arguing that evidence from multiple RF health research lines supports harm occurring below current exposure limits. It promotes a proposed “S4–Mito–Spin / IFO‑VGIC” framework and a “density-gated” vulnerability map, and calls for policy actions such as changes to Section 704 and enforcement via FDA/FTC. The page frames regulatory “capture/inertia” as a key reason current limits persist, while positioning its view as a “respectable minority” in 2025.

The S4–Mitochondria–Spin Framework: A Unified Theory of Non Thermal RF/ELF Biological Effects – Now Backed by Explosive 2025 Evidence That Demands Immediate Action

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 26, 2025

RF Safe argues that 2025 research provides strong support for a proposed “S4–Mitochondria–Spin” framework explaining non-thermal biological effects from RF and ELF electromagnetic fields. The article claims this mechanism links voltage-gated ion channel timing disruptions (S4), mitochondrial/NOX-driven oxidative stress amplification, and cryptochrome-related magnetosensitivity to outcomes such as cancer, male infertility, immune dysregulation, and circadian disruption. It also calls for regulatory and policy changes, framing current safety standards as inadequate for non-thermal effects.

The S4–Mito–Spin Rosetta Stone By RF Safe

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 26, 2025

RF Safe argues that non-thermal RF and ELF electromagnetic fields can have biological effects via a proposed “S4–Mito–Spin” framework, challenging the regulatory position that effects below heating thresholds are implausible. The article claims EMFs may couple into biology through voltage-gated ion channel S4 segments, mitochondria/NADPH oxidases (oxidative stress amplification), and spin-dependent radical-pair chemistry in redox cofactors. It presents this as a unifying mechanism intended to explain reported findings across cancer, fertility, immune, and blood-related studies, but it is framed as a conceptual synthesis rather than new peer-reviewed experimental results in the post itself.

The S4–Mitochondria–Cryptochrome Framework: A Unified Theory of Non-Thermal RF/ELF Biological Effects

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 24, 2025

RF Safe presents an advocacy-style article proposing a “S4–mitochondria–cryptochrome” framework to explain alleged non-thermal biological effects from RF and ELF exposure. It argues that EMF-related “noise” could disrupt voltage-gated ion channel signaling, amplify oxidative stress via mitochondria, and affect circadian biology through cryptochrome, linking these mechanisms to cancer, fertility impacts, immune dysregulation, and chronodisruption. The piece cites animal studies and reviews (e.g., NTP and Ramazzini) and references WHO systematic reviews, but the overall presentation is a unified-theory argument rather than a new peer-reviewed study.

Density‑Gated Spin Engines: Why the 5G Skin‑Cell Null Fits the Heme/Spin Extension

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 24, 2025

This RF Safe commentary argues that non-thermal RF/5G effects may vary by tissue based on the density of specific biological “targets,” such as voltage-gated channel S4 helices, mitochondrial/NOX ROS capacity, and heme/flavin “spin chemistry” substrates. It claims that reported null findings in 5G mmWave skin-cell studies can be reconciled with reported red blood cell (RBC) rouleaux observations by proposing a “density-gated” mechanism where spin-related effects are more detectable in heme-dense cells like RBCs. The post cites an ultrasound study (named “Brown & Biebrich”) as showing in-vivo rouleaux changes within minutes near a smartphone, but provides limited methodological detail in the excerpt.

Corrigendum and Theoretical Extension to “A Unified Mechanism for Non Thermal Radiofrequency Biological Effects”

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 23, 2025

RF Safe publishes a corrigendum and theoretical extension to a prior article proposing a “unified mechanism” for non-thermal RF/ELF biological effects. The author argues the original forced-ion-oscillation interaction near voltage-gated ion channels (VGICs) remains central but is incomplete, and adds multiple additional pathways (e.g., non-mitochondrial ROS sources, radical-pair/spin chemistry, barrier effects, epigenetics, circadian gating). The piece presents a broadened, multi-mechanistic framework and states it yields falsifiable predictions, but it is presented as a theoretical synthesis rather than new experimental results in the provided text.

This is one of the most coherent, mechanistically grounded syntheses I’ve seen linking non-thermal RF/ELF effects across cancer, reproductive harm, and immune dysregulation

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 22, 2025

An RF Safe commentary argues that a proposed “S4–mitochondria axis” provides a coherent mechanism for non-thermal RF/ELF biological effects, linking voltage-gated ion channel (VGIC) disruption to altered calcium signaling, mitochondrial ROS, and downstream cancer, reproductive, and immune impacts. The post cites several recent reviews and systematic reviews (including a WHO-commissioned animal carcinogenicity review and an SR4A corrigendum) as strengthening evidence for specific tumor and reproductive outcomes in animals. It concludes that regulatory positions emphasizing thermal limits and lack of mechanism are no longer defensible, presenting this as convergent evidence rather than scattered findings.

I’m not a doomer; I’m an engineer who’s spent three decades in the trenches

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 21, 2025

An RF Safe post frames EMF/wireless exposure as a problem that the wireless industry is "pretending" does not exist, and positions the author as an RF engineer with decades of experience and patents (including Li‑Fi) advocating for technology compatible with human biology. The available excerpt contains mostly site/promotional text and a disclaimer that views are those of the authors, so specific technical arguments or evidence from the article cannot be verified from the provided text.

Executive Summary

Independent Voices RF Safe Nov 15, 2025

RF Safe’s “Executive Summary” argues that non-thermal radiofrequency/microwave exposures from modern wireless technologies can disrupt biological processes, proposing ion-channel voltage-sensor interference as a key mechanism leading to oxidative stress and inflammation. It cites animal studies (NTP and Ramazzini) and claims a WHO-commissioned 2025 systematic review found “high certainty” evidence of increased cancer in animals, and it points to epidemiological trends as suggestive. The piece also criticizes U.S. regulation as focused on thermal effects, highlighting FCC limits dating to 1996 and referencing a 2021 U.S. court ruling that faulted the FCC for not addressing non-thermal evidence.
