The international commission on non ionising radiation protection (ICNIRP) has recommended SAR below 2w/kg for users of cellular telephones.

Several researches suggest that mobile suage may be associated with tumours such as astrocytomas, gliomas and acoustic neuromas. Continue reading ‘Cell phone and cancer concern’ »
