It is feared radiation from mobiles could cause brain tumours, multiple sclerosis, depression, genetic damage and headaches. But the CA used other techniques to carry out its safety experiments and obtained worryingly different results . Copyright Belfast Telegraph Newspapers Ltd. They fear similar harm may be caused to women by everyday radiation from refrigerators, washing machines, kettles, vacuum cleaners, and other household appliances, as well as computer terminals and power lines. ELF fields are generated every time an electrical device is operated, and an electromagnetic field is also present when an appliance is on standby.
Ovarian follicles go through a number of stages of development before reaching maturity.
A crucial step is the creation of the follicle's central cavity, called the antrum. The scientists, from the universities of L'Aquilia and La Sapienza in Rome, found that ELF fields prevented a large proportion of cultured mouse ovarian follicles developing to this stage. Pre-antral cells were exposed to ELF radiation at frequencies of 33 hertz or 50 hertz. I did not hear all of their stories when they registered their objection but each has a tale to tell. A few people from other districts inevitably signed because they also felt so strongly on the subject.
