Abstract

Overview

For the first time, researchers have explored the effects of electromagnetic radiation from cell phones on the resistance of the aquatic medium inhabited by protozoan microorganisms. This groundbreaking study sheds light on the biological responses of protozoan populations to modern technological environments.

Findings

  • The experiment showed a significant change in the medium's resistance, impacted directly by the radiation on cellular systems.
  • Consistency in communication patterns among protozoa was observed, validating the findings.
  • An extremely low concentration of protozoan cells, only 1000 cells per liter, was required to observe these effects.

Conclusion

These observations suggest that this methodology could be vital in understanding how biological systems interact with electromagnetic fields and potentially lead to developing protection strategies against harmful radiation exposures in sensitive environments.
