GSM and DCS wireless communication signals: combined chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity study in the Wistar Rat.
Smith P, Kuster N, Ebert S, Chevalier HJ · 2007
View Original AbstractThis major 2-year rat study found no cancer increase from daily cell phone radiation exposure, even at levels 8 times higher than phone safety limits.
Plain English Summary
Researchers exposed 1,170 rats to cell phone radiation (GSM and DCS signals) for 2 hours daily, 5 days a week for up to 2 years to test whether this exposure causes cancer. They found no increase in tumors or cancer rates compared to unexposed control rats, even at the highest radiation levels tested. This large, long-term study suggests that chronic exposure to these specific wireless signals at the tested levels does not increase cancer risk in rats.
Study Details
To study the effects of GSM and DCS wireless communication signals on carcinogenicity in rats.
A total of 1170 rats comprised of 65 male and 65 female Han Wistar rats per group were exposed for 2...
There was no adverse response to the wireless communication signals. In particular, there were no si...
