This study found no DNA damage in rat bone marrow exposed to mobile phone radiation up to 12.4 W/kg, roughly six times typical phone exposure levels.

Plain English Summary

Summary written for general audiences

Researchers exposed rat bone marrow to mobile phone radiation at 900 and 1800 MHz frequencies to test for genetic damage and effects on blood cell production. They tested both continuous and pulsed signals at power levels ranging from 2 to 12.4 watts per kilogram. The study found no significant changes in cell growth or DNA damage in the bone marrow cells after exposure.

Study Details

In this paper we extend the scope of the previous study by testing for possible effects at: (i) different SAR levels; (ii) both 900 and 1800 MHz, and; (iii) both CW and pulse modulated (PM) RFR.

Excised long bones from rats were placed in medium and RFR exposed in (i) a Transverse Electromagnet...

Our data did not indicate any significant change in these end points for any combination of CW/PM ex...

No significant changes were observed in the hematopoietic system of rats after the exposure of CW/PM wave 900 MHz/1800 MHz RF radiations at different SAR values.
