Günlük hayatta sıkça kullanılan cep telefonu, bilgisayar, tablet, televizyon, mikrodalga fırın, saç kurutma makinesi gibi elektrikli ve kablosuz birçok cihaz elektromanyetik alan (EMA) oluşturmaktadır. Bu nedenle insanlar intrauterin dönemden başlayarak, küçük çocukluk çağından itibaren giderek artan miktarda EMA’ya maruz kalmaktadır. Teknolojinin insan hayatına sağladığı kolaylıklar elbette göz ardı edilemez. Ancak EMA’nın vücuttaki organ sistemlerini olumsuz etkileyerek lösemi, infertilite, kardiyovasküler ve nöroendokrin hastalıklar gibi birçok rahatsızlıkla ilişkili olabileceğini bildiren çeşitli bilimsel araştırmalar mevcuttur. Yapılan çalışmalarda EMA’nın oksidatif stresi ve DNA hasarını tetikleyerek hücresel yapı ve fonksiyonlarda bozulmaya yol açtığı gösterilmiştir. Uluslararası Kanser Araştırmaları Kuruluşu (The International Agency for Research on Cancer, IARC) düşük doz EMA’yı insanlar için olası kanserojen olarak tanımlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, EMA maruziyeti konusunda toplum bilincine katkı sağlamak ve bilim insanlarında yeni araştırma fikirleri uyandırmak amacıyla EMA’nın tanımı ve sınıflandırması, olası biyolojik etkileri ve hücresel etki mekanizmaları literatür bilgisi ışığında araştırılarak derlendi

Are The Devıces That Creates Electromagnetıc Area As Innocent As We Thought?

Öz

Many electrical and wireless devices such as mobile phones, computers, tablets, televisions, microwaves, hair dryers are used in daily life. These tools emit electric magnetic field. Therefore, people are exposed to an increasing amount of EMA from intrauterine period and small childhood. The benefits of technology to human life cannot be ignored. However, there are a number of scientific studies reporting that EMA may be associated with many disorders such as leukemia, infertility, cardiovascular and neuroendocrine diseases by adversely affecting the organ systems in the body. Studies have shown that EMA triggers oxidative stress and DNA damage, leading to disruption of cellular structure and function. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) defines lowdose EMA as a possible carcinogen for humans. In this study, the definition and classification of EMA, possible biological effects and mechanisms of cellular action were investigated in the light of the literature.
