Effects of high-frequency electromagnetic fields on human lymphocytes in vitro.
Antonopoulos A, Eisenbrandt H, Obe G, · 1997
View Original AbstractThis study found no DNA damage to immune cells from cell phone frequencies, but lacks crucial exposure details.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed human immune cells (lymphocytes) to electromagnetic fields at frequencies used by cell phones and other wireless devices (380, 900, and 1800 MHz) to see if the radiation would damage the cells' DNA or disrupt their normal growth cycle. The study found no measurable differences between cells exposed to EMF and unexposed control cells. This suggests that these specific frequencies, under the conditions tested, did not cause detectable genetic damage or cellular disruption in immune cells.
Study Details
The aim of this study is to observe Effects of high-frequency electromagnetic fields on human lymphocytes in vitro.
Human peripheral lymphocytes were incubated in the presence of high-frequency electromagnetic fields...
No differences between treated and control cultures could be found.
