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 …

Irreversible electroporation can be used as a nonthermal energy source to ablate tissue.
Cardiac catheter ablation by irreversible electroporation may be a safe and effective …

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 …

The rapid manufacture of complex three-dimensional micro-scale components has eluded
researchers for decades. Several additive manufacturing options have been limited by either …

Electroporation, widely used in research and applications, is briefly reviewed. Both cell and
artificial planar bilayer membranes exhibit dramatic changes if the transmembrane voltage is …

Recent studies of ultrasound (US) methods for targeted drug delivery and nonviral gene
transfection revealed new, advantageous possibilities. These studies utilized US contrast …

An increased permeability of a cell membrane during the application of high-voltage pulses
results in increased transmembrane transport of molecules that otherwise cannot enter the …

Increasing the cell membrane's permeability can be accomplished via single cell
electroporation. Polar substances that cannot otherwise permeate the plasma membrane …

In recent years, several publications on microfluidic devices have focused on the process of
electroporation, which results in the poration of the biological cell membrane. The devices …

The investigation of human disease mechanisms is difficult due to the heterogeneity in gene
expression and the physiological state of cells in a given population. In comparison to bulk …
