This triple-blind randomized study tested whether 26.5 minutes of 26 GHz (5G) RF exposure at environmental-like levels alters salivary stress biomarkers in healthy adults. Salivary cortisol and alpha-amylase measured before, during, and after exposure did not differ between real and sham conditions. An exploratory…

This laboratory study examined whether extremely low frequency EMF exposure affects wheat seed germination and early seedling development. Seeds exposed to 10 Hz, 7.5 mT EMF (5 h over 3 days) reportedly germinated earlier and showed higher biomass than untreated controls. The abstract also reports increased total…
Enhancement of Fungal Enzyme Production by Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.

This in vitro study examined whether a 2 GHz RF-EMF exposure could enhance enzyme production in a filamentous fungus. A 10-minute exposure was reported to increase extracellular total protein and α-amylase activity in culture media versus controls, alongside increased α-amylase mRNA and changes consistent with…

This double-blind provocation study examined whether short RF-EMF exposure alters salivary biomarkers in electrohypersensitive (EHS) individuals. Ten participants underwent sham and real exposure sessions with consecutive GSM 900, GSM 1800, DECT, and Wi‑Fi signals for 5 minutes each. The study reports no significant…
Are people living next to mobile phone base stations more strained? Relationship of health concerns, self-estimated distance to base station, and psychological parameters.

Jan 1, 2009
This cross-sectional study surveyed 57 participants about perceived proximity to mobile phone base stations, EMF-related concerns, and psychological strain, and also collected saliva biomarkers. Self-declared base station neighbors (≤100 m) showed higher salivary alpha-amylase and higher symptom checklist scores on…
