Rats exposed to microwave radiation at 10, 30, or 100 mW/cm2 for 5 minutes showed significant down-regulation of testicular occludin and JAM-1 protein expression at multiple post-exposure time points (ranging from 6 hours up to 14 days, depending on dose and …

Low-intensity microwave radiation (LIMR; ≤2.0 kW/kg) produced semi-lethal and lethal temperatures (48°C and 50°C) that were lower than those induced by heat conduction (50°C and 52°C). Compared with heat conduction, LIMR exposure was associated with lower moi…
Eggs/tadpoles exposed at 140 m from several mobile phone antennae (measured electric field intensity 1.8–3.5 V/m) showed low coordination of movements, asynchronous growth, and 90% mortality (n=70). Controls kept under the same conditions but inside a Faraday…
Adult mites exposed to 2,450 MHz microwave radiation showed 100% mortality for both species at high and medium power settings when exposed for 300 seconds. At low power, mean mortality was 10.8% (D. pteronyssinus) and 9.7% (D. farinae). In the presence of cul…
Cells were exposed to a sinusoidal 50 Hz EMF (1.2 microT) for 48 h. In sham-exposed cells, melatonin diminished estradiol-induced CREB binding to the BRCA-1 promoter, whereas in EMF-exposed cells CREB binding was almost completely omitted. In MT1-transfected …
Short- and long-term 50 Hz, 0.5 mT ELF-EMF exposure did not produce somatic changes characteristic of chronic stress (no body weight reduction, thymus involution, or adrenal hypertrophy). After prolonged exposure, blood glucose was increased (p=0.013), pituit…
CB and CR expression (immunoreactivity) were assessed in mouse hippocampus after 835 MHz exposure under several time/SAR regimens. Body weights did not change significantly. The abstract reports that 1 month of daily exposure at SAR 1.6 W/kg produced almost c…
Exposure to 50 Hz, 0.5 mT ELF-EMF for 4 hours daily over 2 weeks significantly decreased the number of flushed blastocysts and significantly increased the height of fallopian tube epithelial cells in mice. The height of endometrial epithelial cells showed an …
Combined exposure to atrazine and power-frequency EMFs increased the number of degranulated mast cells significantly compared to control and EMF-only groups. Single EMF exposure did not increase mast cell degranulation.
Exposure to 900 MHz amplitude modulated EMF for 20 minutes significantly increased ROS levels and DNA fragmentation in astrocytes, with no change in cellular viability. No effects were observed with shorter exposures or continuous waves. Thermal effects were …
Exposure to ELF-EMF above 0.5 mT caused progressive acrosome damage in spermatozoa, reducing their fertilization capability in vitro. In vivo exposure at 1 mT significantly reduced fertilization rate and exposure of oviducts to ≥0.75 mT slowed early embryo cl…
An additional experiment under supervision of foreign experts reported changes in autoimmune status in rats after long-term low-level RF EMF exposure at an incident power density of 500 microW/cm2. The article argues existing exposure-limiting standards may n…

Rats exposed to 2450 MHz microwaves at 0.16 W/kg SAR for 7 hours daily over 30 days showed increased levels of oxidation products and antibodies, especially IgM, in blood serum. Antibody levels were higher at day 7 post-exposure than at day 14.

Cell phone EMF radiation significantly reduced seedling length, dry weight, protein, and carbohydrate contents in Vigna radiata. Activities of several enzymes were enhanced, suggesting a protective response to EMF-induced stress.
Sub-chronic exposure to a 900 MHz EMF signal at SARs of 1.5 or 6 W/kg for 8 weeks increased GFAP levels in multiple rat brain areas, indicating reactive astrocytosis three and ten days after exposure.
Rats exposed to 900 MHz EMF had a significantly lower total number of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum compared with both control and sham-exposed groups. No significant differences were reported in body or brain weights between exposed and control/sham group…
Women exposed to electrical transmission installations had elevated risk of uveal melanoma (OR 5.81). Positive associations with exposure to control rooms were seen in both sexes, mainly in subjects with dark iris colour. Risk increases were stronger among wo…
Short-term exposure (3 days) to 30 MHz HF-EMF at 25-1600 V/m showed no significant effect on hippocampal cell apoptosis or morphology. Chronic exposure (56 days) at higher intensities (400 and 1600 V/m) significantly increased apoptotic rates and caused abnor…

Compared with sham, pups in the EMF-exposed group had significantly increased lipid peroxidation, significantly decreased superoxide dismutase activity, and significantly more TUNEL-positive cells. Electron microscopy showed mitochondrial degeneration, reduce…
In vitro, reactions consistent with EMI were observed during exposure to low-frequency (134 kHz) RFID in 67% of pacemaker tests (maximum distance 60 cm) and 47% of ICD tests (maximum distance 40 cm). During high-frequency (13.56 MHz) RFID exposure, reactions …
