Abstract

Electromagnetic waves generated by many natural and man-made sources can travel long distances and play a very important role in daily life. In particular, electromagnetic fields in the radiofrequency (RF) region are used in electronic devices. Electromagnetic radiation emitted by electronic equipment is a form of environmental pollution, many kinds of invisible electromagnetic waves are being generated in our environment. Which is divided into two categories of extremely low frequency 3 - 3000 Hz and a radio frequency 30 kHz - 300 GHz. The radiations are not strong enough to damage DNA because according to quantum physics only radiation whose frequency greater than a certain frequency called threshold frequency is able to damage DNA. The threshold frequency of DNA is 15.112 THz or energy 0.0625 eV.it can't transfer enough energy to an atom to remove an electron and it can't even break the chemical bonds in our film and it Can’t damage DNA at all. Hence this radiation cannot change the structure of DNA in living organisms.
