objective(s):electromagnetic radiations which have lethal effects on the living cells are currently also considered as a disinfective physical agent.   materials and methods: in this investigation, silver nanoparticles were applied to enhance the lethal action of low powers (100 and 180 w) of 2450 mhz electromagnetic radiation especially against escherichia coli atcc 8739. silver nanoparticles ...

The electromagnetic field leakage levels of nonionizing radiation from a microwave oven have been estimated within a complex indoor scenario. By employing a hybrid simulation technique, based on coupling full wave simulation with an in-house developed deterministic 3D ray launching code, estimations of the observed electric field values can be obtained for the complete indoor scenario. The micr...

Low-frequency electromagnetic radiation had previously been thought to cause human injury only by generation of excess heat or by shock from direct contact with electric current. Information accumulating over the past few decades, however, suggests that nonionizing electric and magnetic fields associated with this radiation may be an environmental etiology in human disease. Human beings are aff...

An antisymmetric tensor, the photon tensor, is defined for the description of the photon as a massless relativistic particle. The photon can be visualized as an essentially two dimensional rotating object. The quantum mechanical description of a single photon is presented and it is shown that it is wrong to associate the quantum states of a photon with the macroscopic electromagnetic fields. Th...

Part of the population considers themselves as sensitive to radiation emitted by the wireless communication devices and networks. Different studies have indicated that ca. 0.5 – 11% of the population might be experiencing sensitivity symptoms. This ailment, called either electromagnetic hyper-sensitivity (EHS) or idiopathic environmental intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF...

a large body of evidence now indicates that the amount of mercury released from dental amalgam fillings can be significantly accelerated by exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (rf-emfs) such as common mobile phones and magnetic resonance imaging (mri). studies performed on the increased microleakage of dental amalgam restorations after exposure to rf-emfs have further supported th...

Exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields has raised scientific and public concern regarding possible adverse effects to people exposed to such radiation. At cellular mobile communication frequencies, the most important parameter used to assess human exposure to electromagnetic fields is SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). This paper will firstly address two exposure scenarios related to a...

Nonionizing electromagnetic fields (EMF) have photon energy less than 10eV, a level not sufficient to produce ions by ejection of orbital electrons from atoms. The biological effects of two types of nonionizing electromagnetic fields are being studies intensely: extremely-lowfrequency (ELF) electromagnetic field and radiofrequency radiation. Extremely-low-frequency EMF covers the frequency rang...
