Effects of the wireless (2.45 GHz) electromagnetic fields on blood cells in rat
Özet
The study aims to investigate hematological parameters, blood cell diameters and shapes of rats
exposed to 2.45 GHz wave frequency EMF. All of the subjects were divided in three groups as
cage control group (n = 30), pseudo-exposure group (n = 30) and 2.45 GHz EMF exposed group
(n = 30). The rats in the magnetic field group were exposed to a frequency of 2.45 GHz wave EMF
power of 1 mW/cm2 for 120 minutes a day for 2 weeks. The effects of the electromagnetic field
on blood levels in rats exposed to 2.45 GHz were compared. The mean lymphocyte count of 2.45
GHz group was lower than in the control group, the number of monocytes in the 2.45 GHz group
was higher than the control group. The mean platelet count in the experimental group exposed
2.45 GHz was observed more intense than the control group. Exposure conditions of EMF
emitted from wireless devices should be examined and in accordance with these terms the
necessary corrections are being made and national standards should be determined. To
continue research on this subject is important in terms of scientific and public health.
