No influence of acute RF exposure (GSM-900, GSM-1800, and UMTS) on mouse retinal ganglion cell responses under constant temperature conditions

View Original AbstractMouse eye cells showed no response changes from cell phone radiation up to 10 times typical exposure levels.
Plain English Summary
German researchers exposed isolated mouse retinal tissue to cell phone radiation at various power levels (including some 10 times higher than typical phone use) to see if it affected eye cells that help process vision. They found no changes in how these retinal ganglion cells responded to light, even at the highest radiation levels tested. The study was carefully controlled to eliminate temperature effects, focusing only on potential non-thermal impacts of RF radiation on eye function.
Study Details
Possible non‐thermal effects of radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF‐EMF) on retinal ganglion cells were studied in vitro under conditions of constant temperature.

From these results we conclude that RF‐EMF exposure at three mobile phone frequencies (GSM‐900, GSM‐1800, UMTS) and SARs up to 20 W/kg has no acute effects on retinal ganglion cell responses under constant temperature conditions.
