the effect of electromagnetic waves exposure on blood parameters

background : now a days researchers have shown grean interest in electromagnetic waves which spread from devices such az microwaves,satellites,tv,cell phones etc,due to various reports of their devasting effects on animal growth and health.in this study the effects of these radiations on blood cells is investigated . methods : in the present study the effect of radiation on blood parameters in the factory workers , including welders , computer operators , individuals working in the furnace and the control group were investigated. in order to determine changes in blood parameters, blood samples were taken from the workers and then were analyzed by standard procedures and compared with control group of changes in blood parameters . spss soft ware for data analysis and one-way anova and duncan test was used . results : results have shown that individuals affected by these waves show significant increase in the amount of rbc , mcv and platelet (p <0.05) . while the amount of hemoglobin , the percentage of lymphocytes and wbc was reduced . conclusion : these effects could be due to the stimulatory effects of radiation on cell division in bone marrow cells is but the effects of radiation on living systems requires further research .
