Abstract

The SUMCASTEC project aims to isolate and neutralize
brain cancer stem-like cells (CSC) using electromagnetic
stimulation [1]. We present a new compact nanosecond
pulse electric field generator that can deliver 500 V, 10 ns
bipolar pulses that was developed in the frame of the
project. The generator is optimized for driving
miniaturized lab-on-chip (LOC) applicators thus
supporting modulation of cell response, with relatively
lower input voltage, and higher field uniformity than in
conventional dish-based or cuvette applicators. The
preliminary experimental results demonstrate modulation
of CSCs response to nanosecond pulses through field
reversal are presented.
