Nepp, det vet jag faktiskt inte.

”The literature is replete with many studies carried out in vivo and in vitro on animals, cell cultures, tissue cultures, enzymes, protein, molecules and DNA solutions etc. that were exposed to RF radiation similar to mobile phone emissions with inconclusive results. The results that appeared to indicate positive effects due to exposure to mobile phone emissions were in most cases not supported by similar studies carried out under apparently the same conditions.”

Men samtidigt så anammas den fina försiktighetsprincipen.

”Yet still, a cautionary attitude should be adopted in view of the universal use of mobile phones.”

Problemet är ju som vanligt att försiktighetsprincipen är på kollisionskurs med kortsiktig tillväxt och den där mobilbranschen som inte vill höra något om försiktighet. Ex. så kräver högre dataöverföringshastigheter såsom 3G och framtida 4G osv, antingen högre effekt per basstation eller fler basstationer (se pdf, sid.3). Slutklämmen på ovan nämnda artikel är lite lika, men ändå tvärtom Aftonbladets där man säger att trots att det inte finns någon bevisad risk bör man ändock använda tillförsikt, om man är vettig:

”Until well controlled experiments producing data that are supported by other similar studies and conclusively showing no health hazards from RF fields similar to mobile phone emissions, it is prudent to decrease exposure to RF radiations whether from mobile phone emissions or from base station emissions. Hence it is advisable to not use mobile phones when the received singal is weak, since the mobile phone will respond by relatively increasing the power it uses and more radiations are emitted. Some shielding material used as a case for the mobile can absorb some of the emitted radiation. Limited use of the mobile phone and for lesser periods is advised. Also hands-free kits can be used to reduce exposure to the phone emissions by increasing the distance between the phone and the body. Little or no advantage is gained if the phone is just moved from the head to for example the waist. Base stations should not be close to children schools and their emitted beam not directed at it. An exclusion zone should surround areas where there is a possibility of over exposure to RF fields of either workers or the public. Use of mobile phones is to be restricted or prohibited in hospitals for possibility of interference with sensitive hospital electronic gadgets. Finally use of mobile phones while driving should be avoided.”
