Radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation emitted from cell phone has harmful effects on some organs of the body, such as the brain, heart, and testes. This study aimed to assess the effects of cell phones on sperm parameters, DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis in normozoospermic. Normal sperm samples were divided into two groups of control and case. The samples from the case were placed for 60 min at a distance of approximately 2.5 cm from the cell phone set in the active antenna position. Control samples were exposed to cell phones without active antennas. All specimens were analysed by World Health Organization criteria. Sperm viability, sperm with chromatin abnormality and maturity, DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis were examined. Viability and motility in the case were significantly lower than the control (p < .001, p = .004 respectively). The percentage of apoptotic sperms and DNA fragmentation were significantly higher in the case when compared with the control (p = .031, p < .001 respectively). The other parameters studied such as morphology, chromatin abnormality, and maturity showed no significant difference between the case and control groups. Cell phone waves had a detrimental effect on human sperm's biological features. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the cell phone away from the pelvis as much as possible.
手机发射的射频电磁辐射对人体某些器官，如大脑、心脏和睾丸有有害影响。本研究旨在评估手机对精子参数、DNA 碎片化和凋亡的影响。正常精子样本被分为对照组和病例组。病例组的样本放置在距离开启的手机天线约 2.5 厘米处，时间为 60 分钟。对照组样本暴露于没有活动天线的手机下。所有标本均按照世界卫生组织标准进行分析。检测精子存活率、染色质异常和成熟度、DNA 碎片化和凋亡。与对照组相比，病例组的精子存活率和活力明显较低（p <.001，p =.004）。与对照组相比，病例组的凋亡精子百分比和 DNA 碎片化率显著升高（p =.031，p <.001）。研究的其他参数，如形态、染色质异常和成熟度，在病例组和对照组之间没有显著差异。手机波对人类精子的生物学特性有不良影响。因此，建议尽可能将手机远离骨盆。
