[Biological effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation] Since the mid 1970's, when Adey discovered that extremely-low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF EMF) may affect the calcium ions efflux from various cells, bioeffects of non-ionizing radiation (NIR) have become the subject of growing interest and numerous research projects.
They reported on an increased testosterone level in rats exposed to 1800-MHz and 900-MHz radiation compared to control animals. Spermatozoa motility and ...
Biological effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields: Two sides of a coin Controversial, sensational and often contradictory scientific reports have triggered active debates over the biological effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) in literature and mass media the last few decades.
Non-ionizing radiation (NIR) contains frequencies from 1 Hz up to distant ultraviolet 100 nm waves, where the ionizing part of the spectrum starts. Starting from the beginning of the 20th century, human-made products have led to the release of amounts of such radiation that are potentially harmful to the biological systems and pose health hazards.

The nonionizing part of the radiation field and electrophysiology are closely related. Biomedical observation, biophysical and bioengineering efforts in the ...
Non-Ionizing radiation (NIR) refers to radiative energy that, instead of producing charged ions when passing through matter, has sufficient energy only for excitation. Nevertheless it is known to cause biological effects. The NIR spectrum is divided into two main regions, optical radiations and electromagnetic fields.
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) disrupt the electrochemical balance of biological membranes, thereby causing abnormal cation movement and deterioration of the ...

Optical radiation has a short range in biological tissue, and the main effect is thermal heating of the tissue. Health damage to the skin and damage to the ...
At present, the fact that NIR exerts both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on different physiological cellular parameters is rather unquestionable. At the ...
