| Abstract | The color change of electroporated intact immunoglobulin G receptor (Fc gammaR-) mouse B cells (line IIA1.6) after direct electroporative transfer of the dye SERVA blue G (Mr 854) into the cell interior is shown to be dominantly due to diffusion of the dye after the electric field pulse. Hence the dye transport is described by Fick's first law, where, as a novelty, time-integrated flow coefficients are introduced. The chemical-kinetic analysis uses three different pore states (P) in the reaction cascade (C <==> P1 <==> P2 <==> P3), to model the sigmoid kinetics of pore formation as well as the biphasic pore resealing. The rate coefficient for pore formation k(p) is dependent on the external electric field strength E and pulse duration tE. At E = 2.1 kV cm(-1) and tE = 200 micros, k(p) = (2.4 +/- 0.2) x 10(3) s(-1) at T = 293 K; the respective (field-dependent) flow coefficient and permeability coefficient are k(f)0 = (1.0 +/- 0.1) x 10(-2) s(-1) and P0 = 2 cm s(-1), respectively. The maximum value of the fractional surface area of the dye-conductive pores is 0.035 +/- 0.003%, and the maximum pore number is Np = (1.5 +/- 0.1) x 10(5) per average cell. The diffusion coefficient for SERVA blue G, D = 10(-6) cm2 s(-1), is slightly smaller than that of free dye diffusion, indicating transient interaction of the dye with the pore lipids during translocation. The mean radii of the three pore states are r(P1) = 0.7 +/- 0.1 nm, r(P2) = 1.0 +/- 0.1 nm, and r(P3) = 1.2 +/- 0.1 nm, respectively. The resealing rate coefficients are k(-2) = (4.0 +/- 0.5) x 10(-2) s(-1) and k(-3) = (4.5 +/- 0.5) x 10)(-3) s(-1), independent of E. At zero field, the equilibrium constant of the pore states (P) relative to closed membrane states (C) is K(p)0 = [(P)]/[C] = 0.02 +/- 0.002, indicating 2.0 +/- 0.2% water associated with the lipid membrane. Finally, the results of SERVA blue G cell coloring and the new analytical framework may also serve as a guideline for the optimization of the electroporative delivery of drugs that are similar in structure to SERVA blue G, for instance, bleomycin, which has been used successfully in the new discipline of electrochemotherapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
