Shahryar Habib Aghdam , Lotfi Alireza

In this study, the effects of exposure to a 900 MHz electromagnetic field (EMF) on serum cortisol and triiodothronine–thyroxin (T3–T4) hormones levels of adult male Syrian Hamster were evaluated. Seventy two hamsters were used in three independent groups, 24 of which were control (without stress and EMF), 24 of which were exposed to 900 MHz EMF for 10 days and 24 of which were exposed to 900 MHz EMF for 50 days. The exposures were performed 1 h/...
