Abstract

Introduction: Due to the increase of public concern about physical and psychological effects of radiation on the health of CELL PHONE users, the present study aimed to determine the general exposure to microwave propagation in different types of CELL PHONEs in different user conditions.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the effective intensity of MICROWAVE RADIATION from CELL PHONE was measured in different user conditions such as during contact, conversation short message and Bluetooth. A Microwave meter (model HI 2200), which was made by Holaday Co. was used to measure radiation according to the standard method No.C93.5. Shielding effectiveness of anti-radiation covers for CELL PHONEs during call was also determined.Results: The effective intensities of MICROWAVE RADIATION emitted by cell piones were 51.4±31.6 mW/cm2, 42.7±30.9 mW/cm2, and 8.6±7.1 mW/cm2, 1.3±0.2 mW/cm2 during contact, conversation, short message and bluetooth, respectively, which were lower than the exposure limits.There was not statistical difference between the intensities of MICROWAVE RADIATION of CELL PHONEs based on the producer companies (p-value>0.05). There was a significant correlation between specific absorption rate and microwave intensity of CELL PHONEs (p-value<0.01).Conclusion: Although the microwave intensities of CELL PHONEs were lower than the exposure limits, however, in the absence of conclusive evidence on the health effects of radiation exposure on humans, it seems to be necessary to inform users about health risks, reduce conversation time as much as possible and use standard CELL PHONE covers.
