Study of the effect of mobile phone tower radiation on different selected plant species

Abstract

newline The increasing use of mobile phones has led to a significant increase in the number of mobile phone towers. While mobile phone towers have revolutionized communication, concerns have been raised about the potential adverse effects of the electromagnetic radiation they emit. The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential effects of mobile phone tower radiation on on different selected plant species was investigated. newlineSix plant species were selected for this study as Dieffenbachia seguine, Sansevieria trifasciata, Chlorophytum comosum, Dracaena fragans, Bryophyllum pinnatum, and Aloe x principis. The plants were exposed to varying levels of mobile phone tower radiation over a period of 15 weeks, and their growth parameters were monitored and recorded. newlineThe results showed that exposure to mobile phone tower radiation had a significant effect on the growth of the selected plant species. The Chlorophytum comosum and Dieffenbachia seguine plants exhibited stunted growth, reduced biomass, and decreased chlorophyll content, while the Mustard plants showed increased growth and biomass. newlineFurther analysis of the plant tissues showed that exposure to mobile phone tower radiation resulted in changes in the levels of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant enzymes, indicating the occurrence of oxidative stress in the plants. newlineThe widespread use of mobile phones has led to an increase in the number of mobile phone towers. While these towers have revolutionized communication, there are concerns about the potential impact of electromagnetic radiation emitted from these towers on plant growth and health. In this study, the physiological and biochemical responses of different plant species to mobile phone tower radiation were evaluated. newlineThe results showed that exposure to mobile phone tower radiation had a significant effect on plant physiology and biochemistry. The photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll content, and antioxidant enzyme activity were significantly reduced in the all the selected experimental plants showed increased levels of these parameters. newlineThe results showed that all six plant species were capable of absorbing or mitigating the harmful effects of mobile phone tower radiation to some extent. The extent of absorption or mitigation varied among the different plant species. Dieffenbachia seguine, Sansevieria trifasciata, and Chlorophytum comosum were found to be the most effective in absorbing and newlinemitigating mobile phone tower radiation, while Aloe x principis and Bryophyllum pinnatum were found to be the least effective. newlineFurther analysis of the plant tissues showed that exposure to mobile phone tower radiation resulted in changes in the levels of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant enzymes, indicating the occurrence of oxidative stress in the plants. newlineOverall, this study provides valuable insights into the potential impact of mobile phone tower radiation on plant physiology and biochemistry. The findings suggest that exposure to mobile phone tower radiation can lead to oxidative stress and affect plant growth and health. The results highlight the need for further research in this area and suggest the importance of taking appropriate measures to minimize the potential adverse effects of mobile phone tower radiation on plant species. This study provides valuable insights into the potential impact of mobile phone tower radiation on plant growth and health. The findings highlight the need for further research in this area and suggest the importance of taking appropriate measures to minimize the potential adverse effects of mobile phone tower radiation on the environment. In terms of mitigation of mobile tower radiation, this study provides valuable insights into the potential of indoor plants to absorb or mitigate the harmful effects of mobile phone tower radiation. The findings suggest that indoor plants can be used as a natural and effective means of reducing the harmful effects of mobile phone tower radiation. The results highlight the need for further research in this area and suggest the importance of incorporating indoor plants in the design and construction of buildings and homes to reduce the potential adverse effects of mobile phone tower radiation.
