Epidemiological and laboratory studies on the cancer risk from electromagnetic fields: an overview

摘要: Electricity has played a significant role in modern developments and become part of our daily life. But electricity is invariably associated with electric and/or magnetic fields. Consequently, we are surrounded by electromagnetic fields (EMFs). In homes workplaces run gadgets at power-line frequencies (50 Hz: low frequency). Whereas, wireless communications, including cellular phones, operated microwaves shortwaves (high The question arises: excessive exposure to EMFs harmful, more specifically carcinogenic? To answer this large number epidemiological surveys laboratory studies have been carried out largely during the 1980s 1990s. results controversial inconclusive. This paper presents comprehensive overview possible detrimental effects time-dependent EMFs, some experimental work authors' laboratory. emphasis focused on rise cancer humans as consequence EMFs.
