Study Type		In Vivo
Model		900 MHz (GSM) exposure to rats and analysis of auditory effects
Details		Rats (n = 14 adult, 7 newborn) were exposed to 900 MHz (GSM) RF for 1 hr/day for 30 days (no details on exposure level). No effect on the inner ear was reported as determined by analysis of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs). The authors concluded that chronic exposure from a mobile phone did not cause any hearing deterioration in adult or developing rats, at least at outer / middle ear and cochlear levels.
