A Study of Histological Effects of Chronic Exposure to a 2G Cellphone Radiations (900-1900MHz) on Kidneys of Albino Rats
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study investigates the possible histological effects of isothermal non ionizing electromagnetic field (2G mobile phone 900-1900 MHz) on the kidneys of Albino Rats. Thirty Albino rats of both sexes were divided in to two groups A and B, each group having 15 numbers of rats. Group A served as control and group B was exposed to cell phone radiations of frequency in range of 900-1900 MHz, one hour per day for two months. At the end of two months exposure period, Albino rats were sacrificed using cervical dislocation method and histological alterations in treated group were observed. The kidneys showed sclerotic glomerulus, hyalinized tubules, leukocyticinfilterations in interstitial tissues, congestion as well as dilatation of blood vessels. In conclusion, the results of this study indicated that exposure to isothermal non ionizing radiation could produce histological effects on kidneys. It is suggested that long term use of mobile phones should be avoided with prohibition of keeping phones in pocket or belt cover for longer time.
