| Comment: In Daphnias, two abnormal peaks of mortality can be observed (Zanolo, 1993). In both cases, the EMF-Bioshield® protection system ensured instead normal growth and development. Text of Experiment results. |

| Comment: In Drosophilas (Charolles), a long exposure to VDT radiation drastically increases the total mortality percentage from 14.8 to 32% (Laverdure, 1991). Exposed to the same VDT equipped with EMF-Bioshield® protection, the total mortality percentage does not show any increase.

| Comment: In 3 chick embryo test groups (control group, VDT group, and EMF-Bioshield®-equipped VDT group) with a minimum of 295 eggs for each group, repeated tests showed a significant increase in the percentage of abnormal embryos and premature deaths with VDT exposure when compared to the control group. Abnormalities increased approximately 60%. When EMF-Bioshield® was attached to the VDTs, the percentage of abnormal embryos declined and approached that of the control group.

| Comment: With Rats (Whitestar), experimental exposure to a VDT were limited ot the neonative period (1 to 15 days). In males and females, significant body weight deficiency resulted, as well as behavioral disturbances (number of micturations, groomings and locomotor activity). Exposure to a similarVDT equipped with EMF-Bioshield® protection showed normal development and behavioral patterns.
