Background: The use of electrical pulses to enhance uptake of molecules into living cells have been used for decades. This technique, often referred to as electroporation, has become an increasingly popular method to enhance in vivo DNA delivery for both gene. therapy applications as well as for delivery of vaccines against both infectious diseases and cancer. In vivo electrovaccination is currently being investigated in several clinical trials, including DNA delivery to healthy volunteers. However, the mode of action at molecular level is not yet fully understood.
