Which biological effects associated with RF exposure are considered “established effects”?
The acceptance of an “established effect” is based upon peer-reviewed scientific reports, where the effect is demonstrated to be reproducible (in more than one laboratory), consistent (within the same laboratory and across other laboratories) and causal (due to the exposure agent). While a number of articles in the scientific literature report RF field bio-effects within a study, these effects do not necessarily stand up to scientific rigour as they are often not reproducible within the same (or other) laboratories or are subsequently found to arise as a result of confounding factors such as sample/tissue heating or vibration. See Question 17 for additional relevant information.
