Effects of pre/postnatal 2.45 GHz continuous wave (CW), Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) Microwave (MW) irradiation on bone have yet to be well defined. The present study used biochemical and histological methods to investigate effects on bone formation and resorption in the serum...
In response to the demand from a growing number of people concerned about the possible impact of RF-EMF on health, the French National Frequency Agency (ANFR) has published a standardized protocol for in-situ measurements of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF). This protocol was based...
Little is known about the exposure levels and adverse health effects of occupational exposure to airplane emissions. Diesel exhaust particles are classified as carcinogenic to humans and jet engines produce potentially similar soot particles. Here, we ev
The low-level concentrations found in blood of the general human population were chosen as the internal exposure doses of rats in this study. Organ coefficients, histopathology, and early sensitive biochemical indicators were measured to evaluate early effects on target organs in rats. Neurobehavioral...
Sample preparation: As it was not possible to transfer the amount of 4 mg airport particle matter from the collection flasks to vials for microwave-assisted acid digestion, a volume of 1 mL of 25% (v/v) nitric acid was directly added to the flasks for acid extraction. Additionally, ...
A radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) of 1800 MHz is widely used in mobile communications. However, the effects of RF-EMFs on cell biology are unclear. Embryonic neural stem cells (eNSCs) play a critical role in brain development. Thus, dete

The safety limit for mobile-phone microwave-radiation emission set by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec- tion (ICNIRP) is 2 W/kg37. In our experiments, the inhibitory effect on neurite outgrowth was found at SAR of 4 W/kg after RF-EMF exposure for 3 days. ...
In vitro studies have been performed to determine the toxicity mechanism at a molecular level. However, one of the limitations of in vitro toxicity assessment is that it may not reflect accurately outcomes under in vivo conditions. Moreover, in vitro testing doses typically exceed an ...
of the total cost, making the proposed cost optimization the most advanced and realistic one currently available. Furthermore, it is shown how the total human exposure can be minimized from a person-centric view, based on the sensitivity of the rooms to a high exposure value. These ...
