Özet

In this study, the effect of cell phone frequency 900 MHz radiofrequency (RF) radiation on rabbits' some hormonal and biochemical parameters was investigated. 14 male, adult, New Zealand albino rabbits were separated into two groups as control and experimental (n=7). For the experimental group, rabbits exposed to 900 MHz frequency RF radiation 2 h per day (7 days in a week) for 90 days. Control group rabbits' procedure was the same as experimental group except the exposure of RF. Before the exposure, at first and third month of exposure; Glucose, Creatinin, Na, K, Cl, Calcium, Phosphorus, Total protein, Albumin, Globulin and Magnesium levels and T3, T4, TSH, LH, FSH, Testesteron, Estradiol, Prolactin, Cortisol, ACTH and Growth Hormon levels were determined from rabbits' blood which was taken from V.Marginalis in their right ear. There was not any significant difference in neither hormonal nor biochemical parameters between experimental and control groups before exposure (p>0.05). At first month of RF exposure; there was not any significant difference in biochemical parameters (p>0.05). However, T4, Testesterone, Estradiol, Cortisol and ACTH levels increased but this increasing was not stastistically significant (p>0.05). After third month exposure, it was found that there was not any significant difference in biochemical parameters (p>0.05), but there was an increase at T4, Cortisol and ACTH levels and only increasing in ACTH levels was stastistically significant (p<0.05). It was concluded that 900 MHz RF exposure did not change some important biochemical and hormonal parameters except ACTH levels after 90 days exposure.
