Theoretical and experimental studies are conducted on the electromagnetic field (EMF) distributions excited inside train carriages and the implantable cardiac pacemaker EMC issue in the same environment. Both precise computer simulations and experiments using 800 MHz and 2 GHz transmitters in an actual train carriage confirm that excessively high EMF, high enough to affect pacemaker normal func...

BACKGROUND Exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) emitted by mobile phone and other machineries concerns half the world's population and raises the problem of their impact on human health. The present study aims to explore the effects of electromagnetic field exposures on sleep quality and sleep duration among workers from electric power plant. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted i...

background: angiogenesis, which is required for embryonic development and many physiological events, plays crucial role in many pathological conditions such as tumor growth and metastasis. recent studies indicate anticancer and antitumor properties of saffron against human cancers. many processes are affected by electromagnetic field (emf) and its effect on proliferation and gene expression wer...

PURPOSE To evaluate SAR as a dosimetric quantity for EMF bioeffects, and identify ways for increasing the precision in EMF dosimetry and bioactivity assessment. METHODS We discuss the interaction of man-made electromagnetic waves with biological matter and calculate the energy transferred to a single free ion within a cell. We analyze the physics and biology of SAR and evaluate the methods of...

the effects of electromagnetic fields (emfs) radiation at the frequency of 940 mhz on the structure and function of human adult and fetal hemoglobin (hba and hbf) were studied. after extraction and purification of hba and hbf, the oxygen absorption values for exposed and unexposed hba and hbf to emf were compared. the slope of oxygen absorption curve for exposed hba was increased while that for...

background: induction of cellular response after exposure to electromagnetic fields is limited to coherent fields. an incoherent noise field is supposed to suppress the bioeffects of regular rf electromagnetic fields. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of gsm mobile phone-induced radiofrequency (rf) on the induction of oxidative stress in sp2/0 cell line. materials and meth...

for many years it was believed that extremely lowfrequency electromagnetic field (elf-emf) do not have any significant biological effects. in this study, the influence of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields on the growth performance, serum antioxidant power and gastrointestinal structure of rainbow trout were evaluated. rainbow trout (17-18 g) were exposed to electromagnetic fields (...

Potential health risk of extremely low frequency electromagnetic field [ELF-EMF] exposure are of considerable public interest. In the present study we investigated the effect of three months exposure to ELF-EMF of frequency [50 Hz] and intensity [50 μT to 500 μT] to which humans can be exposed in their home and work environments on the blood vessels morphology and number in adenohypophysis of m...

Several studies of the physiological responses of different organisms exposed to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) have been described. In this work, we report the minimal effects of in situ exposure to ELF-EMF on the global protein expression of Chromobacterium violaceum using a gel-based proteomic approach. The protein expression profile was only slightly altered, with ...

This study is prepared by the Wireless Communication Centre (WCC) Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) as collaboration with the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) from Northern, Central and Southern regions to study the non-ionizing radiation (NIR) emission to public. This study aims to investigate the EMF pattern and its bio-effect to human kind. The installations of mobi...
