We studied the biological effect of chronic exposure to multifrequency electromagnetic fields simulating the effects of 5G NR/IMT-2020 mobile communication systems.

Male Wistar rats were exposed to 24-h radiation (250 μW/cm²) for 4 months. The exploratory activity of the animals and blood concentrations of ACTH and corticosterone were evaluated at the end of each month of exposure and 1 month after exposure.

The results suggest that exposure to multifrequency electromagnetic field simulating the effects of 5G systems affected functional activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis and was stressful in nature.

Keywords: 5G mobile communication systems; adrenocorticotropic hormone; corticosterone; electromagnetic field; neuroendocrine system.
