Electroporation

Some more info on the electroporation discussed in last post

Some more basic information on electroporation and what it is for and so on:

There are 2 types - reversible and irreversible.

I’ll use the font of all knowledge to link to easy to understand descriptions:

Irreversible is used to cause cell death and is used to “cut away” cancers etc:

Reversible is used to break open cell walls temporarily so that DNA and other stuff can be inserted into the cell:

Drawbacks include cell death though and fusing of cells together - doesn’t this sound like some cancers?
