Jan 1, 2025
This article reviews the microwave auditory effect (perceived clicks/buzzing) that can occur when the head is exposed to pulsed microwave energy, such as from radar. It explores whether this phenomenon could plausibly explain reported “anomalous health incidents” (Havana syndrome), noting that experts and formal…

This preprint discusses the microwave auditory effect, in which pulsed microwave exposure can produce perceived clicks or buzzing sensations. It considers whether acoustic pressures in the head generated by pulsed microwaves could explain health conditions such as "Havana Syndrome." The abstract emphasizes evaluating…

This review-style text discusses polarized, coherent microwaves that are modulated and pulsed at extremely low frequencies (ELF) and suggests these characteristics may increase biological interactions. It emphasizes that intensity variability and ELF modulation are important for understanding EMF–biology…

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 engineering study describes using antenna-coupled microwave radiation to enhance laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) emission from a Gd2O3 sample at reduced pressure. The authors report substantially increased plasma emission intensity, higher-temperature plasma, and longer emission lifetime when…
The effects of microwave emitted by cellular phones on ovarian follicles in rats

Jan 1, 2009
This animal study examined whether prenatal exposure to mobile phone microwaves affects ovarian development in rats. Pregnant rats were exposed to a phone placed under the cage throughout pregnancy, with mostly standby exposure and brief periodic speech-mode exposure. Female pups assessed at 21 days had fewer ovarian…

This rat study examined hippocampal RKIP and related markers after exposure to high power microwaves (X-band and S-band) or an electromagnetic pulse. RKIP protein decreased at 6 hours post-exposure, with recovery by 1 day in the EMP group but more prolonged decreases (up to ~7 days) in the microwave groups.…
