Optimisation of pulse parameters in vitro for in vivo electrochemotherapy.

The aim of our study was to optimise electric pulse parameters for electrochemotherapy by sampling the space of pulse parameter variables using systematic in vitro experiments. For this purpose we defined parameters that describe the effectiveness of different sets of electric pulse parameters in vitro and combined them into an objective function that characterises requirements for successful electrochemotherapy. The objective function values were calculated for all the sets of electric pulse parameters included in in vitro experiments.
