No short-term effects of digital mobile radio telephone on the awake human electroencephalogram
Roschke, J, Mann, K · 1997
View Original AbstractBrief 3.5-minute cell phone exposures showed no immediate brain wave changes, but this doesn't address long-term daily use effects.
Plain English Summary
German researchers exposed 34 healthy men to cell phone radiation (900 MHz) for 3.5 minutes while measuring their brain activity with EEG sensors. They found no detectable changes in brain wave patterns during the short exposure period compared to when the phone was turned off. This suggests that brief cell phone use may not immediately alter brain electrical activity in awake, healthy adults.
Study Details
The aim of the present study was to illuminate the influence of digital mobile radio telephone on the awake electroencephalogram (EEG) of healthy subjects.
For this purpose, we investigated 34 male subjects in a single-blind cross-over design experiment by...
During exposure of nearly 3.5 min to the 900 MHz electromagnetic field pulsed at a frequency of 217 ...
