    Optimization Optimization protocol Electroporation is mainly dependent on the combination of three electric parameters such as the electric field, pulse width, pulse interval, and pulse number. Based on your initial results, you may need to optimize the electroporation parameters for your cell type and payload. The process involves applying electrical energy to cells to achieve temporary pores that allow for the transfer of genetic material across the cell membrane.
