**2.18 The Bundesambt für Strahlenschutz (BfS, German, 2009)**

According to the German Federal office for radiation protection (BfS) recent studies have failed to demonstrate effects of mobile phone radiation on human fertility. No adverse effects were found on testes and sperm cells. The few papers that showed such effect(s) were considered of low or no scientific value. Experiments on animals have not shown relevant effects whereas *in vitro* studies only showed effects in case of thermal exposure conditions.
