Schematic representation of the basic relationship between electric field strength and length of pulse; key parameters in establishing electroporation. For electroporation to occur, the transmembrane potential difference needs to be between 0.7 and 1 volts [123], once this is achieved, pores form. With increasing voltage and/or increasing length of treatment, these membrane changes become permanent, i.e., IRE resulting in cell death [123].
