ABSTRACT
The study of the effects of microwave/radiofrequency emitted from mobile phone base stations on humans are an emerging area of investigation. Therefore, this study was designed to study the effect of one of the mobile phones base station on lipid peroxidation, as well as on liver tissues deterioration when rats exposed to their emitted radiation. In this study, Wister Albino rats (n=30) were divided into two groups; namely, normal rats’ group (n=12) and rats’ exposed to the stations’ energy (n=18) for 24 hours/day for 8 weeks. Results: Serum albumin level as well as liver enzymes were reduced after exposure compared with those of the control group (p
Keywords: Mobile phones, base stations, oxidative stress and liver tissues deterioration.
