Nerve Cell Damage in Mammalian Brain After Exposure to Microwaves From GSM Mobile Phones
Overview The possible risks of radio-frequent electromagnetic fields for the human body, is a growing concern for the society. It has been earlier shown that weak pulsed microwaves give rise to a significant leakage of albumin through the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Now it has been investigated whether a pathological leakage over the BBB might be combined with damage to the neurons. Three groups of each 8 rats were exposed for 2 hours to GSM mobile phone electromagnetic fields of different strengths. It is found, and presented in this paper, highly significant (p<0.002) evidence for neuronal damage in both the cortex, the hippocampus and the basal ganglia in the brains of exposed rats.
