ABSTRACT
The rapid rise in the use of mobile communications has raised the questions about the health issues. The head and the brain are usually the most exposed targets in mobile phone users. Over the last decade, exposure to high frequency electromagnetic radiation [EMR] has been found to induce deficits in rodents in spatial memory tasks. In addition, radiofrequency radiation has measurable effects on human cognitive performance. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of 900MHz EMR on some amino acid neurotransmitters [glutamic acid, glutamine, GABA, glycine and taurine] to measure their significant variations in the thalamus and striatum of adult and young rats
