ID Number		1733
Study Type		Plant Studies
Model		900 MHz (GSM), 105 GHz exposure to flax seeds and analysis of subsequent plant growth
Details		Flax seedlines exposed to 900 MHz (GSM) RF for 2 hours/day, 6 days using a mobile phone mounted above and hooked to the network. Exposure was reported to show the same response as when cold shock or other weak environmental stressors were applied. In a subsequent study, mm waves (105 GHz) as a single 2 hour exposure was used in the same assay and shown to again trigger the same response (production of epidermal meristems in the hypocotyl).
