The addition of the opposite polarity second phase inhibits the electroporative uptake of YO-PRO-1 dye (YP) in a broad range of supra-threshold electric field strengths. Measurements were performed in cell samples exposed to 300-pulse trains at 10 Hz. Unipolar pulse duration and one phase duration of bipolar pulses was 300 ns (left panel) or 500 ns (right panel). YP was added to cell samples before pulse exposure and washed away 30 min after it. Dashed lines are the LOESS function best fits. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 for the difference between bipolar and unipolar pulses, with two-tailed t test. See text for more details.
