Abstract:
Electric field-induced membrane changes are an important approach in the life sciences. However, the developments in knowledge and translational applications face problems of reproducibility. Indeed, a quick survey of the literature reveals a lack of transparent and comprehensive reporting of essential technical information in many papers. Too many of the published scientific papers do not contain sufficient information for proper assessment of the presented results. The general rule/guidance in reporting experimental data should require details on exposure conditions such that other researchers are able to evaluate, judge and reproduce the experiments and data obtained. To enhance dissemination of information and reproducibility of protocols, it is important to agree upon nomenclature and reach a consensus on documentation of experimental methods and procedures. This paper offers recommendations and requirements for reporting on applications of electric pulse delivery for electroporation of biological samples in life science.

X-ray Diffraction of Biological Samples
According to Bragg's law, when X-rays strike the sample positioned on a stage, the rays are scattered by the electron clouds around the sample atoms. The X-ray diffraction or scattering is caused by constructive interference of the X-ray waves that reflect off the internal...
