Bron: Indian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology 2009; 53 (3): 283 - 286 Medical/biological Study (experimental study) Hypoactivity of Wistar rats exposed to mobile phone on elevated plus maze. med./biol. By: Kumar RS, Sareesh NN, Nayak S, Mailankot M Aim of study (according to author) To study whether mobile phone exposure causes changes in behavior of rats in the elevated plus maze. Background/further details: The animals were divided into two groups of six rats each: control group and exposure group. Three of the exposed rats were tested one hour after the last exposure while the other three were tested 24 h after exposure. Controls were tested along with the 24 h post exposure group. Endpoint cognitive/behavioural endpoints: anxiety (behavior in elevated plus maze) Exposure General category: mobile phone, digital mobile phone, GSM Field characteristics Parameters 900 - 1800 MHz exposure duration: 50 missed calls of 1 min each /day for 4 weeks - with 15 s intervall between the calls Exposed system: animal (species/strain): rat/Wistar albino whole body exposure Methods Endpoint/Measurement parameters/Methodology Cognitive/behavioural endpoints: Behavior in elevated plus maze (time spent in the open arms); number of defecation pellets investigation on living organism Time of investigation: after exposure Main outcome of study (according to author) The preliminary data indicated that the mobile phone exposure induced behavioral changes in rats, expressed as a deficit in open arm exploration in the elevated plus maze. Additionally, the number of defecation pellets of exposed animals was increased compared to control animals Voor het originele abstract zie: www.emf-portal.de/viewer.php?l=e&aid=18061 .
