Synthesis Method and High Salt Concentration Can Affect Electrodeformation of GUVs under Strong Pulsed DC Fields.

The study focuses on two important issues in the electrodeformation of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) as biomimic objects, with regard to their electroporation. The results are presented with respect to the ratio of the conductivities of the inner and outer fluids of the GUV, (β = Λ/Λ), and the concentration of salt in the enclosed medium ( ). In this work, low and high salt concentration regimes are referred to as ≤ 0.
