THE BIOCHIP PHONE
About 650 million mobile phones are expected to be sold to consumers this year, and over 1.5 billion people around the world use one. Most phones emit radio signals at Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) levels of between 0.5 and 1 W/kg. SAR is a measure of the rate of radio energy absorption in body tissue, and the SAR limit recommended by the International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection is 2 W/kg.
According to a new study majority-funded by the European Union, radio waves from mobile phones harm body cells and damage DNA in laboratory conditions. The research project, which took four years and which was coordinated by the German research group Verum, studied the effect of radiation on human and animal cells in a laboratory. After being exposed to electromagnetic fields that are typical for mobile phones (SAR of between 0.3 and 2 watts per kilogram), some cells showed a significant increase in single and double-strand DNA breaks. The damage could not always be repaired by the cell. This means the change had procreated.
The Biochip Phone: the world's first cell phones with harmless radiation.
In October 2004, G-Hanz EMF Telecom, a joint-venture between leading consumer electronics company G-Hanz and EMX Corporation, announced the global launch of the world's first cell phones with harmless radiation. The EMX BioChip technology is designed to block the harmful radiation by superimposing a random noise field that is neutral to the human tissue, thus mitigating the possible harmful effects to human cells.
