Considerably, the rapidly increasing use of mobile phones has led to pay more attention to the possible effects of being exposed to mobile phone radiation on lymphatic organs . This study was conducted to investigate the mentioned effects on mice.   Materials & Methods : A total of 30 healthy adult female mice were divided into one control and one exposed group. The treatment group was placed in cages with exposure to electromagnetic waves with a frequency of 915-MHz for 60 consecutive days . At the end of the experiments , total and differentiated white blood cell counts as well as the levels of IgG and IgA were determined . Lymphoid organ weights were recorded and also histological sections were prepared. Results were analyzed by independent t-test (p SP - 92 EP - 101 AU - Louei Monfared, Ali AU - Hamoun Navard, Sahar AD - Faculty of Basic Sciences, Department of Anatomy and Histology, University of Ilam, Ilam, Iran KW - Electromagnetic radiation KW - Mobile KW - Lymphoid organ KW - Histomorphology KW - Immunoglobulin KW - Mice UR - http://umj.umsu.ac.ir/article-1-2774-en.html ER -
