Summary:
This is an animal study that investigated whether exposure to ELF MF results in adverse health effects (as revealed by a blood test). A total of 128 rats were randomly assigned into a sham group or exposed group. Exposure was at a frequency of 50 Hertz and at a MF of 100 µT (half the limit of current international guidelines for public exposure), for 20 hours a day, for three months. The analysis of the blood samples did not reveal any differences between the two groups. The authors concluded that ELF MF exposure does not affect the rats’ blood characteristics.
