Bacterial Antibiotic Resistance

November 29, 2019
Source: SMJ Mortazavi https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6605927873914130432/ Accumulating evidence reveals that exposure of bacteria to a wide variety of physical stressors ranging from ultrasound to ionizing and non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation can make them resistant to antibiotics. A study conducted recently showed that the exposure of E. coli DH5α to Wi-Fi radiofrequency radiation for 5 hours influenced several bacterial cellular and...

Evaluation of Wi-Fi Radiation Effects on Antibiotic Susceptibility, Metabolic Activity and Biofilm Formation by Escherichia Coli 0157H7, Staphylococcus Aureus and Staphylococcus Epidermis

November 25, 2019
J Biomed Phys Eng. 2019 Oct; 9(5): 579–586. Published online 2019 Oct 1. doi: 10.31661/jbpe.v0i0.1106 Abstract Background: The radiation emitted from electromagnetic fields (EMF) can cause biological effects on prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, including non-thermal effects. Objective: The present study evaluated the non-thermal effects of wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) operating at 2.4 GHz part of non-ionizing EMF on...
