The Survey Says That Radiation Protection Clothing For Pregnant Women "Basically Has No Effect".

It is reported that after her pregnancy, because of the excessive electromagnetic radiation in modern life, she usually wears protective clothing. Various kinds of radiation protection clothing poured into the market, and the sales of radiation protection clothing increased steadily. Especially in the city, the radiation protection clothing became the standard standard for every expectant mother. Radiation protection clothing can really prevent radiation? Recently, a reporter's investigation found that radiation protection clothing may cause radiation to become stronger.

Single direction radiation can prevent

According to the reporter's investigation, the market's radiation protection clothing is mainly made up of Metal Fiber and silver ion are two kinds of materials. Merchants advertise that metal fiber can withstand 99.99% of radiation and silver ions can withstand 99.9999% of the radiation.

Through the recommendation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the reporter has found a leading laboratory of professional electronic testing in China, testing a metal fiber's radiation protection clothing. After calibrating the instrument, engineer Chen Feng blocked the radiation protective clothing between the transmitting antenna and receiving antenna. It was found that 90% of the radiation was shielded from radiation shielding clothing.

Radiation in some parts of radiation protection is strong.

Reporter survey found that in real life radiation sources are not single, but also not a direction. In the face of complex reality, does radiation protection clothing still have effect? Chen Feng said, in real life, because of the large number of radiation sources, radiation in some places of radiation clothing has become larger.

The experimental results show that wearing radiation protection clothing in real life not only has no protective effect on radiation sources from some directions, but also increases the radiation intensity in radiation protection clothing. Because radiation will come from all the cracks in the bottom and cuffs of the garment, but it can not be reflected.

Chen Feng said, for the matrix, the radiation will not be reduced because of wearing radiation proof clothing, but it is not yet clear for the fetus inside the mother.

Radiation in real life is below protection standard.

It is understood that the environmental protection department of China formulated relevant standards in 1988.

The reporter went to a standard open office to assess the electromagnetic radiation of this office. Conduct Estimates. After calculation, Chen Feng said that the radiation value in the office is 100 times lower than the standard, which can be said that the impact on the human body is negligible. Later, the reporter found a pregnant woman's home to carry out the experiment. The result showed that the electromagnetic radiation intensity of the general family was far from the national protection standard.

In 1991, the new England Journal of Medicine published a concluding report on the fact that there is no direct relationship between computer radiation and female abortion. The article said that more than 800 pregnant women were found. After a follow-up study, they concluded that the increase in miscarriage rate is not necessarily related to exposure to computer monitors.

Experts say

Radiation protection clothing basically has no effect.

Ms. Wu, who has just been pregnant for 2 months, bought an anti radiation suit last weekend. Ms. Wu said that friends and colleagues around the world would buy a piece or borrow a piece of radiation proof clothing if they were pregnant, which has become a special "uniform" for pregnant women.

Last night, Ma Tanyuan, director of the Department of nuclear medicine, First Affiliated Hospital of Tsinghua University, said that the radiation protective clothing sold on the market, such as metal fibers and silver ions, had no effect on radiation protection for pregnant women.

Ma Tanyuan said, in fact, specialized medical treatment. protect Clothing is made of lead, very heavy, and it is mainly for fixed radioactive sources to protect. But in people's lives, radiation comes from all sides. Computers, surfing the Internet, making phone calls and watching TV will produce certain electromagnetic radiation, but pregnant women need not worry too much about them, because their radiation is very small, far below the national standard limit, even if they are concentrated together, they are not so powerful.

According to him, there are radiation around life, most of which are radiations from the universe, such as radiation on the earth's surface, but these radiation are unavoidable. There is no way to protect them at present. The electromagnetic radiation of cell phones and computers are all "Pediatrics" in front of them.

Ma Tanyuan said that women do not need to wear special radiation protective clothing to protect themselves. They should not contact X rays as far as possible. If radiation is used during pregnancy, doctors will also make special protection for the sensitive parts of the fetuses such as gonad and thyroid.
