The study was performed to gain an understanding of the parameters for the lysing of eukaryotic cells using a pulse of AC electric field.

AC pulses of varying pulse width were used.

Exposure 1: 1 kHz Modulation type: single pulse Exposure duration: single pulse with a width of 1 ms, 10 ms, 100ms, 500 ms or 1 s	power: 500 W

Frequency	1 kHz
Type	electric field
Waveform	sinusoidal
Exposure duration	single pulse with a width of 1 ms, 10 ms, 100ms, 500 ms or 1 s

Modulation type	single pulse

Exposure source	Eppendorf electroporation cuvettes with 1 mm gap

Time of investigation:

The data show different percentages of cell lysis of SWLA-2 murine hybridomas produced by AC electric field pulses at 1 kHz with pulse widths ranging from 1 ms to 1 second. However, heating may have contributed to cell lysis.
