ABSTRACT
The impact of electromagnetic fields (EMF) from cell phones on selected soil microorganisms, enzymes and physico-chemical parameters was studied. EMF-unexposed soil from the homogenized sampled soil served as the control. At the periods of 0, 30, 60, and 90 days, the total colony counts (CFU/g) and viability ratios of Bacillus, Micrococcus, Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, Corynebacterium, Saccharomyces, Penicillium, and Geotrichum were determined. Also determined at the exposure periods were the activities of acid phosphatase, dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase, catalase and alkaline protease as well as pH, moisture content, organic matter and phosphate contents. At the exposure periods of 30, 60, and 90 days, the mean values from the test samples for all the enzymes, microorganisms (except Enterococcus species), physico-chemicals (except pH and phosphate) were significantly (p
