Electroporation, also known as electropermeabilization, is a microbiological and biotechnological technique in which an electric field is applied to cells to briefly increase the permeability of the cell membrane. The application of a high-voltage electric field induces a temporary destabilization of the lipid bilayer, resulting in the formation of nanoscale pores that permit the entry or exit of macromolecules.
