Microwaves: Exposure and Potential Health Consequences

摘要: Microwaves are electromagnetic (EM) waves characterized by frequency ranging between 300 MHz and 300 GHz. The continuous exposure of people to EM sources, like power lines or domestic appliances present in the neighborhood inside houses, use sources very close human body, cell phones, have given rise increasing concern, both public opinion scientific community, about possible risks health because exposure. This has led development theoretical experimental studies aimed at understanding mechanisms which fields (EMFs) biological tissues interact with potential adverse effects. Energy transfer water molecules, leading a temperature increase tissue, represents only mechanism EMF may impact acceptable doses, according international standards. Novel electrical electronic technologies, new communication devices, magnetic imaging technologies for medical other applications bring risk. There is little no conclusive evidence that level radiofrequency (RF) within range exposures, currently experienced general population, causes ill health. Nevertheless, on basis current knowledge, question whether these poses an increased future risk still open question. According results published research, there reasonable consensus significant observable effects been discovered relating microwave (MW) exposure. Further work will be required investigate detailed responses.
