Custom Made Tissue Simulants
Do you need simulants for non-standard testing or for research purposes?
We have already made various kinds of tissues for our customers, e.g. tissues simulating animal’s muscle, skull and brain (grey and white matter), and testing RF performance of implantable medical devices.
The liquids can be used to study how electromagnetic radiation propagates through tissue, since they have been developed to have similar dielectric properties to human tissues.
The simulants are tuned to represent human tissues with accuracy of ±5% at temperature of 22˚±0.2 degrees.Measured dielectric data is available.

SAR Testing
France SAR regulation 1st July 2020
From the 1st of July the SAR regulation in France have changed. The National Frequency Agency (ANFR) manages all radio frequencies in France and has now extended the obligation to inform the consumer regarding the specific absorption rate (SAR) to all radio equipment emitting more than 20 mW and intended to be used near the body.

RF Exposure Evaluations: Interview with Laboratory Manager Miia Nurkkala
This time we interviewed our laboratory manager Miia Nurkkala. Miia tells about Verkotan’s RF exposure capabilities and testing capacity. Every product that has a radio transmitter in it needs an RF exposure evaluation. Read more
EMF
Electromagnetic Field Measurement at Verkotan
Public concern about the possibility of health risks resulting from exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) emitted from various wireless devices and their infrastructure in living and working environments continues to be an issue all over the world. It is essential that public is not exposed to dangerous levels of electromagnetic radiation, and therefore EMF measurements are performed to ensure a device’s compliance to international guidance.
