Abstract
Abstract:
The growing number of cellular telephone production and the increasing number of users, increased the interest of studying the effect of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) emitted by cellular phones on living organisms. The potential health risks of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields emitted by electromagnetic devices are currently of considerable public interest. As a matter of fact, in recent years, histological and physiological studies have increased evaluating the effects of electromagnetic fields on human health. Among the various areas of scientific interest over the last years, the oxidative stress induced by electromagnetic radiation in biological systems is of utmost importance. This oxidative stress is a biochemical condition characterized by an imbalance in the presence of relatively high levels of toxic reactive species, mainly reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the antioxidant defense mechanisms. The enzyme systems are considered as the first line of defense of our body against ROS. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of electromagnetic fields emitted by mobile phone on some biophysical, biochemical and hematological effects on Swiss albino mice using two different mobile phones of Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM). The study also includes the variation of both Electric Field Strength and Variation of the Power Density with Distance and the accompanied biological effects and the critical distance of safe use.
