New Technion micromachine to introduce DNA, drugs into specific cells

Electroporation is a technique seen in microbiology where an electrical field is applied to cells in order to increase the membrane's permeability, allowing drugs, DNA or chemicals to be introduced.

Schematic illustration of selective bacteria trapping, transport and electroporation (red fluorescence) using a Janus particle as a mobile microelectrode and an applied electric field are shown.
