Effects of nanosecond pulse electric fields on cellular elasticity.
We investigated the effects of a single 60 nanosecond pulsed electric field (nsPEF) of low (15 kV/cm) and high (60 kV/cm) field strengths on cellular morphology and membrane elasticity in Jurkat cells using fluorescent microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). We performed force displacement measurements on cells using AFM and calculated the Young's modulus for membrane elasticity. Differen...
متن کاملCompact Nanosecond Pulse Generator
A compact nanosecond pulse generator was designed and tested. The generator has a specially designed unit consisting of an HCEIcap 1000.2 capacitor and a multigap switch. The total inductance of the unit is 20 nH. The modifications made in the design allowed an increase in energy density up to 370 J/l at an electric field strength of 200 kV/mm. The volume of the capacitor active part is 2.3 l. ...
متن کاملGene electrotransfer enhanced by nanosecond pulsed electric fields
The impact of nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) on gene electrotransfer has not been clearly demonstrated in previous studies. This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of nsPEFs on the delivery of plasmids encoding luciferase or green fluorescent protein and subsequent expression in HACAT keratinocyte cells. Delivery was performed using millisecond electric pulses (msEPs) wit...
متن کاملEffects of high voltage nanosecond electric pulses on eukaryotic cells (in vitro): A systematic review.
For this systematic review, 203 published reports on effects of electroporation using nanosecond high-voltage electric pulses (nsEP) on eukaryotic cells (human, animal, plant) in vitro were analyzed. A field synopsis summarizes current published data in the field with respect to publication year, cell types, exposure configuration, and pulse duration. Published data were analyzed for effects ob...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional nanosecond electric field mapping based on cell electropermeabilization
Nanosecond, megavolt-per-meter electric pulses cause permeabilization of cells to small molecules, programmed cell death (apoptosis) in tumor cells, and are under evaluation as a treatment for skin cancer. We use nanoelectroporation and fluorescence imaging to construct two-dimensional maps of the electric field associated with delivery of 15 ns, 10 kV pulses to monolayers of the human prostate...
