ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on cellular research on the biological effects of high-frequency electromagnetic waves, and summarizes the results of published research, mainly in regard to radio frequency waves (RFWs). The use of electromagnetic waves is increasing all over the world. Human epidemiological studies and animal experiment research are also important in considerations of the future electromagnetic environment. In the society of the near future, in addition to static magnetic fields, extremely low-frequency waves, and RFWs, a wide variety of electromagnetic changes will occur in environment in the regions of intermediate-frequency waves, millimeter waves (MMWs), and terahertz waves (THWs). Fundamental cellular responses such as cell growth, survival, and cell-cycle distribution were examined following RFW exposure at a wide range of specific absorption rate values. The biological effects produced by low-power MMWs were studied on the RPMI 7932 human melanoma cell line. THW exposure of human dermal fibroblasts was performed in a temperature-controlled chamber using a molecular gas THz laser.
