The thermal response of an isolated cell under pulsed electric field exposure is studied, including a frequency-dependent membrane capacitance model. The possibility of a fast localized membrane heating up to physiologically significant levels is suggested, without sensible increase in the cytoplasmic temperature.

Abstract

The thermal response of an isolated cell under pulsed electric field exposure is studied, including a frequency-dependent membrane capacitance model. The possibility of a fast localized membrane heating up to physiologically significant levels is suggested, without sensible increase in the cytoplasmic temperature.
