Abstract:

Just after the invention of electricity by Michael Faraday, there has been a revolution in the communication technology, which list to the invention of radio, television, radar, satellite, mobile etc. While this device has made our lives richer, safer and easier, they have been accompanied by concerned possible health risks due to their electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emission. For sometime a number of individuals have reported a variety of health problems that they relate to exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) and electromagnetic radiation (EMR). While some individual report mild symptoms and react by avoiding the field as much as they can, others are so severely affected that the survey work and change their entire lifestyle. In this paper, empirical survey study has been carried out in the laboratories of Daffodil International University (main and permanent campus). It was found that some of the instrument had higher electromagnetic field. A case study found that people (working near high frequency field) had various sufferings due to the exposure of electromagnetic field (EMF). The findings from this survey may be helpful for the students to take precautionary measurement who work for long duration in the various laboratories.

Description:

There is no doubt that electricity is the more important things for our today’s civilization. Now a days the power of electricity is the main basement of the universe. But at the same time, we should aware about the hostile effect of variation in the Electromagnetic field (EMF) which also known as non-ionizing radiation (NIR). It is narrative that high power transmission and extremely low power radiation frequency like computer, video display, light, laptop, fridge, router, transmission line and all the other home appliances and telecommunication equipment’s also Laboratories equipment’s in every School College and University. This high frequency (HF), low frequency (LF) and extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic field instruments are very harmful for human living system and human body also effect lower level animals. The electromagnetic field is more dangerous than normal electric field. Because the electric field in human body discharge by the ground and other materials but the magnetic field not discharge from our body it’s stays in our body and make difficulties in our body and health. We can call this electromagnetic field also silent killer. The elaborate use of electromagnetic field has been effects of the human health hazards. In the short-term process in very high electromagnetic field strength its cause of nerve muscle stimulation and also change cell foundation in central nerve system. In the long term of process electromagnetic field is risk for childhood leukemia occurs average around 0.3 to 0.4 Micro Tesla (μT). This electromagnetic field also responsible for carcinogenic to human (WHO 2002). This is also including others like childhood cancer, cancer in adults, suicide cardiovascular disorders, reproductive disfunction developmental disorders, Immunological modifications, neuro behaviors effects and neurodegenerative diseases. At the same time lower level animals and sensitive animals are also affect by the electromagnetic field. It accomplishes that lower level animals like rats and bee when living around electromagnetic field are face hives and geniture problem. The electromagnetic field also may cause of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). There is also report that biological effect like immune deficiency, sensitive lymphocytes, disrupting DNA, cellular breakdown is being affected by electromagnetic field. This non-ionizing radiation (NIR) from various electromagnetic fields not only called health hazards but also causes various message in electronics equipment. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is the reason of this problems. This EMI interfere electronic equipment frequency and destroy this process. All over the world the engineers and scientist are very much concern about EMI and try to find out the best way to overcome.
