The effects of radiofrequency (< 30 MHz) radiation in humans.

Abstract:

:121 workers who were exposed to RFR (< 30 MHz) over one year were examined. They were divided into two groups: one group was exposed to high electric field intensity (> or = 100 V/m), another to low intensity (< 100 V/m) and both groups were compared to control subjects. No significant changes in the functioning of the autonomic nervous system and blood parameters (Hb, WBC and blood platelets) occurred in the exposed subjects of either group. Some changes in ECG (ST-T interval and abnormal heart rate) were observed in the group exposed to high intensity (> or = 100 V/m) radiation. 100 V/m is suggested as an exposure limit for RF (< 30 MHz) radiation.

  • 1,4-Dichlorobenzene-Induced liver tumors in the mouse: evaluation of the role of chlorohydroquinones.

    abstract::1,4-Dichlorobenzene (1,4-DCB) is a wide-spread environmental contaminant and well-described hepatotoxicant for rats and mice. The prolonged oral or inhalation exposure to 1,4-DCB is associated with an increased frequency of hepatic tumors in mice, but not in rats. Evidence is lacking of direct genotoxicity with 1,4-DC...
