February 18th, 2009
Scientists discuss in 'Nanosecond electroporation: another look' new findings in dna research. According to a study from the United States, "As the medical field moves from treatment of diseases with drugs to treatment with genes, safe and efficient gene delivery systems are needed to make this transition. One such safe, non-viral, and efficient gene delivery system is electroporation (electrogenetherapy)." "Exciting discoveries using electroporation could make this technique applicable to drug and vaccine delivery in addition to gene delivery. Typically milli and microsecond pulses have been used for electroporation. Recently, the use of nanosecond electrical pulses...
