Effects of radiofrequency fields on young animals: WiFi signal exposure effects on immature immune and nervous systems (ERYA project)
Résumé
To investigate bioeffects of WiFi exposure on the developing immune and nervous systems, pregnant rats were exposed or sham-exposed to WiFi signals. The daily 2 hour whole-body exposure was carried out in utero for 2 weeks and post-natal exposure for 5 weeks. In the reverberation chamber, SAR levels in the free-running animals were 0, 0.8, 0.4, and 4 W/kg. Apoptosis and stress protein expression were studied in different brain areas: comparison among sham and exposed groups showed no significant differences. Lack of consistent neo-antigen production under exposure suggests that WiFi signal exposure has no noticeable influence on immune humoral response.
