AUTHORS' ABSTRACT: Maurya and Upadhyay (IEEE #5711): Mobile is now become as an integral part of our daily life and mobile users have been increasing day by day globally. In India, mobile base stations and their installation are irregular and unregulated. Result from STM (Short term memory) and LTM (Long term memory) test, sowed significant change in Mobile Tower Radiation Treated Mice (MTRTM) as compared with without MTR treated mice. The numbers of mistakes done by MTR-TM group of mice were higher than the control. After measuring the muscular strength by using rotating hanging wire test, the result revealed that calculated time of fall from wire and compare this time with control and radiated set of mouse. Three trials were done with same set of mouse at one week intervals. In all the three trials, the average difference between control and radiated mice for muscular strength was significant (p < 0.05). Path movement was more random in MTR-TM and also observed less activity than without treated control mice.
