Summary form only given. Over the last several years pulse power technology has developed into a novel and innovative time domain nanotechnology as a new modality to treat cancer. The technology treats cancer in the absence of drugs by generating non-ionizing radiation with nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs or nanopulses) that are high in power (gigawatts) and low in energy (millijoules)....
Electrical models for biological cells predict that reducing the duration of applied electrical pulses to values below the charging time of the outer cell membrane (which is on the order of 100 ns for mammalian cells) causes a strong increase in the probability of electric field interactions with intracellular structures due to displacement currents. For electric field amplitudes exceeding MV/m, such...
Ionizing radiation can be an environmental health risk as well as a cancer therapeutic, but similar roles for non-ionizing radiation are controversial. We have examined effects of wideband, intense non-ionizing radiation applied to cells and tissues as nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs). Compared to conventional electroporation pulses, nsPEFs have shorter pulse durations (ges10 ns) and higher...
Electrical models for biological cells predict that reducing the duration of applied electrical pulses to values below the charging time of the outer membrane causes a strong increase in the probability for electric field interactions with intracellular structures. For electric field amplitudes exceeding MV/m, such pulses are expected to cause electroporation of cell organelles, with the required...
