Summary:

This in vivo study investigated whether exposure to RF EMF emitted by mobile phones affects auditory function by altering the neurotransmitter glycine. In the study rats were exposed to a 835 MHz RF signal at a specific absorption rate of 4 W/kg or sham for three months. The authors report differences in the glycine activity between the exposed and non-exposed rats which are indicative of auditory dysfunction.
