Inkubatorer exponerar både bebisar och personal för förhöjda nivåer av elektromagnetiska fält, dvs 0,2-10 mikroTesla. ”RESULTS: We retrieved 15 papers that described the EMF exposure in incubators and their biological effects on babies. EMF levels in incubators appear to be between 2 and 100 mG, depending on the distance of the mattress from the electric engine. In some cases they exceed this range. These values interfere with melatonin production or with vagal tone. Even caregivers are exposed to high EMF, above 200 mG, when working at close contact with the incubators. CONCLUSION: EMF have been described as potentially hazardous for human health, and values reported in this review are an alert to prevent babies’ and caregivers’ exposure when close to the incubators. A precautionary approach should be adopted in future incubator design, to prevent high exposures of newborns in incubators and of caregivers as well” Kommentar: från 0,2-0,4 mikroTesla (2-4 mG) har förhöjd risk för cancer observerats vid långtidsexponering.  Bellieni et al. 2017

Trådlösa laddare för smartmobiler överskrider gällande referensvärden för strålning från ICNIRP. ”the incident magnetic flux densities exceed the reference values by factors of tens, roughly. For internal electric fields, the margin was below a factor of 10. For SAR, in contrast, the margin amounted to three orders of magnitude. The study (i) affirmed that checking basic restrictions in case of local exposures that exceed reference values is necessary; (ii) showed that exposure levels of current smartphone wireless charging systems may exploit ICNIRP basic restrictions on induced electric fields up to 30%, roughly, and are far from recommended maximum SAR levels; and (iii) indicated that increasing the allowed maximum power for charging systems (as already outlined in the standard) has to be carefully evaluated regarding instantaneous values of induced electric fields.” Fröhlich et al. 2017
