“…Transmembrane pore formation caused by pulsed electric field (PEF) techniques can allow researchers to transgenically modify cells, selectively target cancer cells for destruction, and sterilize surfaces and liquids (Cabuy, ; Calvet, Famin, André, & Mir, ; Nakamura & Funahashi, ; Saulis, ). Additionally, static and pulsed electric fields can decrease cooling times and reduce ice nucleation damage in cell membranes (Dalvi‐Isfahan, Hamdami, & Le‐Bail, ; Mok, Her, Kang, Hoptowit, & Jun, ). As an anticancer technique, PEF can either be used alone or in combination with anticancer medications.…”
