Analysis of the metabolic profile of humans naturally exposed to RF-EM radiation

Abstract

Overview

This study investigates short-term metabolic dysregulations in humans exposed to varying levels of RF-EM radiation by analyzing urine metabolites through untargeted 1H NMR spectroscopy.

Introduction

• Increased RF-EM radiation exposure due to advancements in wireless communication technologies.
• Concerns about the impact of RF-EM radiation on biological systems amidst inconsistent research findings.

Objectives

The research focuses on comparing the metabolites in the urine samples of individuals from two micro-environments with different levels of cellular RF-EM radiation exposure.

Methods

• Utilized untargeted 1H NMR spectroscopy for metabolomics analyses.
• A total of 60 subjects participated, providing 5 ml urine samples each, divided into two groups based on their exposure levels.

Findings

• Detection of twenty-nine dysregulated metabolites, with specific impacts on Glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism and the TCA cycle.
• Discovery of potential links between oxidative stress, gut microbiota imbalance, and RF-EM radiation exposure.

Conclusion

Initial findings suggest associations between RF-EM radiation exposure and specific metabolic changes. However, further investigations are imperative to validate these potential biomarkers and elucidate the broader effects of RF-EM radiation on human health.
