Biological experimental study on cumulative effect of vehicle electromagnetic radiation

Abstract

Overview

This study examines the cumulative effects of electromagnetic radiation from electric vehicles on occupant health. With the growing inclusion of high-voltage and electronic components in vehicles, there is a more complex electromagnetic exposure that passengers might face. The rising use of electric vehicles further increases the frequency and duration of exposure.

Findings

• The research was conducted using mice as model organisms, focusing on changes to body weight and blood immune cells as indicators of health impact.
• Significant differences were observed based on gender, particularly impacting the body weight of female mice. Such effects suggest that electromagnetic radiation could potentially interact with various physiological processes.
• Previous studies hinted that this type of radiation could affect appetite, endocrine systems, and overall growth, which could be aligned with observed changes in this study.

Conclusion

The study presents initial findings that indicate potential health impacts from prolonged exposure to electromagnetic radiation in vehicles. While conclusive results require further research, these findings emphasize the necessity for continued examination of electromagnetic exposure effects, especially considering the variances in sensitivity among different biological sexes.

Note: Environmental factors such as noise, temperature, and humidity differences during testing were acknowledged as potential variables that could affect outcomes. Further controlled experiments are planned.
