Abstract

Overview

The study investigates the neuronal damage in rats' brains caused by prolonged exposure to cell phone and Wi-Fi radiation and explores the protective effects of Vitamin E.

Aim

This research aims to identify and mitigate the neural damage in rats due to consistent exposure to electromagnetic fields from cell phones connected to Wi-Fi networks.

Methods

  • Thirty male Wistar Albino rats were utilized.
  • Groups were exposed to cell phones and Wi-Fi for 8 weeks.
  • Vitamin E was administered at 50 IU/kg of body weight for 4 weeks.

Findings

Significant neuronal damage was observed in the brains of exposed rats, characterized by cellular disruptions in various brain areas. Conversely, rats treated with Vitamin E exhibited relatively minor damage.

Conclusion

Administration of Vitamin E showed a protective effect against electromagnetic radiation-induced damage, maintaining more intact neuronal architecture and reducing inflammation in the brains of treated rats.
