Exposure to hexavalent chromium and 1800 MHz electromagnetic radiation can synergistically induce intracellular DNA damage in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Key Points

• DNA damage was significantly higher in cells exposed to both hexavalent chromium and electromagnetic radiation.
• The study observed a 50% increase in DNA damage compared to single exposures in mouse embryonic fibroblasts.
• Analysis involved exposure experiments to examine the combined effects of hexavalent chromium and electromagnetic radiation.
• Results highlight a need for further investigation on combined environmental impacts on cell health.
