Abstract	The rapid development and use of wireless technologies have raised concerns about the possible harmful effects of long-term exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Wi-Fi routers are the most commonly used devices at households, offices, hotels, hospitals, airports, train stations etc., to provide wireless internet access to multiple devices. Therefore, prolonged exposure to EMR warrants thorough scientific investigation and risk assessment. Herein, we evaluated the impact of 2.45GHz Wi-Fi radiation exposure for 4 hours daily over a consecutive 30-day period on neurobehavioral and brain oxidative stress parameters in adult zebrafish. Post-exposure assessments revealed significant neurobehavioral impairments, altered locomotion, decreased neurotransmitter levels (AChE), and increased oxidative stress. Further studies are needed to better understand the molecular mechanisms involved and to assess the broader implications for vertebrate neurobiology and public health.
