Blood-brain barrier effects

Swedish researchers from Lund University (Salford, Brun, Perrson, Eberhardt, and Malmgren) have studied the effects of microwave radiation on the rat brain. They found a leakage of albumin into the brain via a permeated blood-brain barrier.[18][19] Other groups have not confirmed these findings in cell [20] or animal studies.[21] The main concern of these works is, that albumin is toxic to neuron cells, and causes them permanent damage, as some of these study reports state.
