RAPD Profiling, DNA Fragmentation, and Histomorphometric Examination in Brains of Wistar Rats Exposed to Indoor 2.5 Ghz Wi-Fi Devices Radiation
Abstract
Overview
The rise of Wi-Fi enabled devices has transformed daily activities, particularly in developing countries, spurring the need to evaluate their safety.
Findings
- The study observed the effects of 2.5 Ghz Wi-Fi radiation on young male rats divided into four groups, with three groups exposed to Wi-Fi for varying durations and a control group.
- Critical findings include vascular congestion and DNA fragmentation in brain tissues, as confirmed by histopathological and genomic analyses.
Conclusion
Exposure to Wi-Fi radiation was found to be a potential threat to brain health due to its genotoxic effects. Significant damage to DNA and brain tissue was recorded, underlining the importance of caution in using Wi-Fi enabled smart devices routinely. This study suggests a high risk to human health and wellness from prolonged exposure to Wi-Fi radiation.
