View Original AbstractLong-term mobile phone radiation exposure showed no brain damage in rats at levels below typical phone use.
Plain English Summary
Swedish researchers exposed rats to GSM-900 mobile phone radiation for 2 hours weekly over 55 weeks at very low power levels (0.6 and 60 milliwatts per kilogram). When they examined the rats' brains afterward, they found no signs of damage including blood-brain barrier leakage, cell death, or aging-related changes. This contradicts some earlier studies from the same research group that found brain effects at similar exposure levels.
Study Details
We have investigated histopathological examinations of rat brains after long-term exposure to GSM-900 mobile phone radiation.
Out of a total of 56 rats, 32 were exposed once weekly in a 2-h period, for totally 55 weeks, at dif...
In this study, no significant alteration of any these histopathological parameters was found, when c...
