A method of targeted electroporation and/or lysis of eukaryotic cellular bodies in a biological sample with at least two subgroups of eukaryotic cellular bodies, wherein each subgroup has a different susceptibility to electroporation and/or lysis in electric fields, including the following steps: transferring the biological sample in a chamber, exposing the biological sample to an electric field in the chamber, wherein the electric field is generated by at least two electrodes which are coated with a dielectric material with a relative permittivity greater than 3.9, and selecting the electric parameters of the electric field such as the field strength, the frequency or the wave form so that the subgroups are differently affected by said electric field for electroporation and/or lysis; as well as devices for the method.

Specific electroporation and lysis of eukaryotic cells

The present application provides the following method for lysis or electroporation of cells in a biological sample:

Coupled sorting and electric treatment of biological cells

The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for detecting one or more pathogens in one or more biological samples. The biological sample may be a food sample, a sample of a body fluid, a cell suspension, water, or a combination thereof. The present invention relates also to methods of diagnosing or predicting a disease in an individual.
