How ARPANSA Searches For EMR Literature
New EMR literature is found by searching several databases as well as notification from peers. The databases that are searched are:
Pubmed
PubMed is a database of biomedical journal articles developed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in the US. It is a text-based search and retrieval system so key words like “radiofrequency” and “mobile phone” will show bibliographic information of available literature on the subject.
Terms which are searched include: electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic radiation, electric and magnetic fields, EMR, EMF, ELF, static, radiofrequency, mobile phone, cell phone, cellphone, power lines, non-ionizing, non-ionising.
The database is located at:

EMF-Portal is a database of literature related to electromagnetic fields research developed by The Research Center for Bioelectromagnetic Interaction in Germany. This database offers text-based search like PubMed as well as search by different topics. The database is located at:
http://www.emf-portal.org/_index.php?l=eBEMS Newsletter
The Bioelectromagnetics Society (BEMS) is an independent organization of biological and physical scientists, physicians and engineers interested in the interactions of non-ionizing radiation with biological systems. The Society publishes the BEMS Newsletter that serves as a vehicle for rapid dissemination of information about ongoing research, recent medical applications or reported environmental effects, meeting announcements and other items of interest to the bioelectromagnetics community. The Newsletter is published six times a year and is available from:
