In vitro 50 Hz magnetic field long-term exposure: Cytogenetic tests on human lymphoblastoid TK6 cells and validation of the test environment
method to shield cells and reduce unintentional ELF- MF exposure consists of using the mu-metal cylinder. This is of particular interest when studying the effects of low exposure levels. Health Topics: ...
Thyroid cancer incidence near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level
living in the vicinity of the four nuclear sites at the smallest Belgian geographical level. Rate ratios were obtained from a Bayesian hierarchical model for areas of varying sizes around the nuclear ...
Childhood leukaemia near nuclear sites in Belgium, 2002–2008
with increasing levels of surrogate exposures was explored by means of focused hypothesis tests and generalized additive models. For the surrogate exposures, three proxies were used, that is, residential ...
Co-exposure of ELF-magnetic fields and chemical mutagens: An investigation of genotoxicity with the SOS-based VITOTOX test in Salmonella typhimurium.
Response, Genetics Abstract: It is believed that extreme low frequency magnetic fields (ELF- MF) are not mutagenic, at least at exposure levels below 100 μT. Synergistic or co-operative effects with ...
Health effects of extremely low-frequency magnetic fields: reconsidering the melatonin hypothesis in the light of current data on magnetoreception
with residential exposure to ELF MF. Contrary to the original hypothesis, however, we do not consider decreased MLT levels, but disruption of circadian rhythmicity per se as the effector mechanism. ...
Collaborative development of an innovative provocation protocol in studying electrohypersensitivity
Some of their characteristics are summarized in Table 1, based on informal interviews. A dedicated questionnaire is developed to assess the level of sensitivity, the confidence of being sensitive to ...
Thyroid Cancer Incidence around the Belgian Nuclear Sites, 2000-2014.
hypothesis tests and generalized additive models were performed to test the hypothesis of a gradient in thyroid cancer incidence with increasing levels of surrogate exposures. Residential proximity to the ...
