Jan 1, 2026
This chronic animal bioassay assessed carcinogenicity and genotoxicity of CDMA-modulated 900 MHz RF exposure at a whole-body SAR of 4 W/kg using a shared Korea–Japan protocol. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed starting on gestational day 5 with daily intermittent exposure for long durations, including a 2-year…
Exposure to 5G-NR electromagnetic fields affects larval development of Aedes aegypti mosquito
Research
PubMed: RF-EMF health
Dec 25, 2025
A PubMed-listed study examined whether exposure to 5G New Radio (5G-NR) radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) at 3.6 GHz affects larval development in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Using a custom reverberation-chamber exposure setup and numerical simulations to estimate dose, the authors report slower…

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study exposed Aedes aegypti larvae to 5G-NR RF-EMF at 3.6 GHz for 5 days under two feeding regimes. The study reports delayed development at a lower exposure level mainly in nutritionally weakened larvae, and at a higher exposure level reports developmental changes and reduced adult size attributed to…

Jan 1, 2025
This magazine article reviews the Japan-Korea "NTP Lite" RF animal toxicity collaboration and its relationship to prior NTP (2018) and Ramazzini Institute reports of RF-associated tumors in male rats. It notes NTP Lite used a single whole-body SAR of 4 W/kg and completed a two-year exposure phase in 2022, but final…

Jan 1, 2025
This engineering study describes the design and validation of a reverberation chamber intended for large-scale animal carcinogenicity research with RF EMF relevant to 4G/5G. E-field uniformity was tested under four loading scenarios, including setups with 80 Sprague-Dawley rats. The chamber achieved better than 1.36…
Exposure to 26.5 GHz, 5G modulated and unmodulated signal, does not affect key cellular endpoints of human neuroblastoma cells

Jan 1, 2025
This in vitro study examined whether 26.5 GHz millimeter-wave exposure (continuous wave and 5G-modulated) affects key cellular endpoints in human neuroblastoma cells. Cells were exposed for 3 hours at SAR 1.25 W/kg using a reverberation-chamber system, with assessments including cell cycle and DNA damage. The study…
Characterization of the Core Temperature Response of Free-Moving Rats to 1.95 GHz Electromagnetic Fields

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study measured core body temperature in free-moving male and female Sprague Dawley rats during and after 3-hour exposure to 1.95 GHz RF-EMF at multiple whole-body average SAR levels. A measurable thermal response was reported at 4 W/kg, while lower SAR conditions showed smaller or no significant…
The CB1R of mPFC is involved in anxiety-like behavior induced by 0.8/2.65 GHz dual-frequency electromagnetic radiation

Jan 1, 2025
This animal study reports that dual-frequency RF EMR exposure (0.8/2.65 GHz, 4 W/kg) induced anxiety-like behavior in mice. It also reports reduced CB1R and endocannabinoid levels in the mPFC and altered endocannabinoid system markers in the BLA. CB1R overexpression or knockdown in the mPFC reportedly decreased or…

This paper describes the design and validation of a vibrating intrinsic reverberation chamber (VIRC) placed inside a walk-in plant growth chamber to enable controlled RF-EMF exposure studies with real-time electric-field monitoring. The authors report that the field in the VIRC is stable and statistically uniform…
Human keratinocytes in culture exhibit no response when exposed to short duration, low amplitude, high frequency (900 MHz) electromagnetic fields in a reverberation chamber.

Jan 1, 2011
This in vitro study exposed normal human epidermal keratinocytes to non-thermal 900 MHz electromagnetic fields in a mode-stirred reverberation chamber under two short-duration conditions. Microarray analysis found only limited gene modulation (20 genes) with small expression ratios and no shared genes across…
