Both scientists and engineers are interested in the design andfabrication of synthetic
nanofluidic architectures that mimic the gating functions of biological ion channels. The effort …

Exposing cells to an electric field leads to electroporation of the cell membrane which has
already been explored and used in a number of applications in medicine and food …

For this systematic review, 203 published reports on effects of electroporation using
nanosecond high-voltage electric pulses (nsEP) on eukaryotic cells (human, animal, plant) …

Since regular radio broadcasts started in the 1920s, the exposure to human-made
electromagnetic fields has steadily increased. These days we are not only exposed to radio …

Ion transport is the fundamental factor determining salinity tolerance in plants. The Review
starts from differences in ion transport between salt tolerant halophytes and salt-sensitive …

New local treatments based on electromagnetic fields have been developed as non‐
surgical and minimally invasive treatments of tumors. In particular, short electric pulses can …

Pulse power technology using nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) offers a new
stimulus to modulate cell functions or induce cell death for cancer cell ablation. New data …

Nanosecond pulsed electric field (nsPEF) is a novel modality for permeabilization of
membranous structures and intracellular delivery of xenobiotics. We hypothesized that …

The exclusion of polar dyes by healthy cells is widely employed as a simple and reliable test
for cell membrane integrity. However, commonly used dyes (propidium, Yo-Pro-1, trypan …

Nanosecond electric pulses have several potential advantages in electroporation-based
procedures over the conventional micro-and millisecond pulses including low level of …
