| Abstract | As the mobile phone responds to modern lifestyle and makes life convenience, its use has increased greatly. On the other hand this technology could affect humans. This article reviews the biological effecs from this equipment. The functioning of a mobile phone is to generate microwave frequency radiation (MFR) which is non-ionizing radiation. This MFR is low energy and not enough to induce heat. So, MFR affecet biological system by non-thermal effects. The mobile phone is a source generated electromagnetic radiation close to the user's head. Thus, the neurological system, which is a non equilibrium electrical organ, can be subject to alteration such as effects to the genetic modification, blood brain barrier, cell structure change, metabolism interference and abnormal electroencephalography pattern, etc. The mobile phone effect is transient change in term of function and behavior of users. Headache is the most frequently occurring symptom in users. At present, the knowledge of biological effect of electromagnetic radiation is still inconclusive. Therefore, preventive strategies should be performed. |
