Exposure of cells to high voltage electric pulses increases transiently membrane
permeability through membrane electroporation. Electroporation can be reversible and is …

Background Electroporation is a method of disrupting the integrity of cell membrane by
electric pulses (EPs). Electrical modeling is widely employed to explain and study …

Each biological cell, trillions of which build our bodies, is enveloped by its plasma
membrane. Composed largely of a bilayer (double layer) of lipids just two molecules thick …

Nonthermal irreversible electroporation is a new tissue ablation technique that consists of
applying pulsed electric fields across cells to induce cell death by creating permanent …

Electroporation is a fascinating cell membrane phenomenon with several existing biological
applications and others likely. Although DNA introduction is the most common use …

Electroporation is the phenomenon in which cell membrane permeability to ions and
macromolecules is increased by exposing the cell to short (microsecond to millisecond) high …

When high-amplitude, short-duration pulsed electric fields are applied to cells and tissues,
the permeability of the cell membranes and tissue is increased. This increase in permeability …

Aims: Irreversible electroporation is an ablation technique being adapted for the treatment of
atrial fibrillation. Currently, there are many differences reported in the in vitro and pre-clinical …

This is a brief introduction to the emerging field of irreversible electroporation in medicine.
Certain electrical fields when applied across a cell can have as a sole effect the …
