The aim of the paper was to study public exposure to MF of electric blankets.

Abstract

The aim of the paper was to study public exposure to MF of electric blankets. For example it is quite possible that children can sleep one the electric blankets, so it was important to study how high the MF exposure of the electric blankets can be. In our quite limited material the exposure from electric blankets can quite easily be over 0.3 or 0.4 microT. If we compare the results of electric blankets to guidelines for general public, these values are clearly less (less than 2%) than the guidelines. Therefore, there is nothing illegal in selling and buying these products.
