Elektroporáció
Elektroporáció, also known as electropermeabilization, is a physical method used to increase the permeability of cell membranes by applying a brief electric pulse. This technique creates transient pores in the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane, allowing molecules that normally cannot cross the membrane to enter the cell. The magnitude and duration of the electric pulse are critical parameters that determine the extent and reversibility of membrane permeabilization.
The process typically involves placing cells in a suspension containing the substance to be introduced, such
Once the electric pulse is removed, the cell membrane reseals, trapping the introduced molecules inside. The
Elektroporáció has found widespread applications in various fields. In molecular biology and biotechnology, it is a
