How electroporation increase permeability of plasma membrane?
Electroporation is a dynamic phenomenon that depends on the local transmembrane voltage at each point on the cell membrane. It is generally accepted that for a given pulse duration and shape, a specific transmembrane voltage threshold exists for the manifestation of the electroporation phenomenon (from 0.5 V to 1 V). This leads to the definition of an electric field magnitude threshold for electroporation (Eth). That is, only the cells within areas where E≧Eth are electroporated. If a second threshold (Eir) is reached or surpassed, electroporation will compromise the viability of the cells, i.e., irreversible electroporation.[2]
What are the advantages of electroporation?
Electroporation offers several advantages, including enhanced cellular uptake of macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins, which improves the efficiency of gene therapy and vaccination techniques. It is a relatively simple and cost-effective method that can be applied to various cell types, including difficult-to-transfect primary cells. Additionally, electroporation can be performed in a controlled manner, allowing for precise manipulation of the electroporation parameters to optimize results for specific applications. Finally, it is a non-viral method, reducing concerns related to potential immunogenicity and toxicity associated with viral vectors.
What are the differences between heat shock and electroporation methods for transforming cells?
Heat shock and electroporation are two methods used to transform cells by introducing foreign DNA into them. Heat shock involves briefly exposing cells to high temperatures, which increases their permeability and allows the foreign DNA to enter. Electroporation, on the other hand, uses an electric field to create temporary pores in the cell membrane, through which the foreign DNA can pass. In summary, the main difference between heat shock and electroporation methods is the mechanism by which they make cells more receptive to foreign DNA.

What are the differences between electroporation and heat shock methods for introducing foreign DNA into cells?
Electroporation and heat shock are two methods used to introduce foreign DNA into cells. Electroporation involves applying an electric field to create temporary pores in the cell membrane, allowing the DNA to enter the cell. Heat shock, on the other hand, involves briefly exposing the cells to high temperatures, which causes the cell membrane to become more permeable, allowing the DNA to enter. In summary, electroporation uses an electric field to create pores in the cell membrane, while heat shock uses high temperatures to make the membrane more permeable.
