Plasma membrane temperature gradients and multiple cell permeabilization induced by low peak power density femtosecond lasers

Calculations indicate that selectively heating the extracellular media induces membrane temperature gradients that combine with electric fields and a temperature-induced reduction in the electropermeabilization threshold to potentially facilitate exogenous molecular delivery. Experiments by a wide-f...
