Telecommunication masts, also known as cell towers or base
stations, are structures that emit electromagnetic radiation
to facilitate wireless communication. These masts play a
crucial role in modern telecommunications infrastructure,
enabling the transmission and reception of signals for mobile
phones, internet connectivity and other wireless devices.
This study is to evaluate the effects of electromagnetic
radiation on behavior, growth and heamatological indices of Clarias gariepinus. A total of 90 juvenile Clarias gariepinus of
approximately equal body weight of (6.66 g-6.96 g) were
purchased from a private hatchery in Birnin Kebbi and were
transported in a gerry can to the research location,
Gwadangwaji village of Birnin Kebbi. A plastic tank of 50
liters were used. The fishes were divided into two groups of
15 with three re.. View More»
