Acoustic cavitation-mediated wounding (ie, sonoporation) has great potential to improve
medical and laboratory applications requiring intracellular uptake of exogenous molecules; …

Using conditions different from conventional medical imaging or laboratory cell lysis,
ultrasound has recently been shown to reversibly increase plasma membrane permeability …

Ultrasound has been shown to reversibly and irreversibly disrupt membranes of viable cells
through a mechanism believed to involve cavitation. Because cavitation is both temporally …

Acoustically driven gas bubble cavitation locally concentrates energy and can result in
physical phenomena including sonoluminescence and erosion. In biomedicine, ultrasound …

Ultrasound (US) has been shown to transiently disrupt cell membranes and, thereby,
facilitate the loading of drugs and genes into viable cells. Because these effects are believed …

Sonoporation, or the use of ultrasound in the presence of cavitation nuclei to induce plasma
membrane perforation, is well considered as an emerging physical approach to facilitate the …

Acoustic cavitation has been shown to load drugs, proteins and DNA into viable cells as a
complex function of acoustic and nonacoustic parameters. To better understand and quantify …

Sonoporation is the membrane disruption generated by ultrasound and has been exploited
as a non-viral strategy for drug and gene delivery. Acoustic cavitation of microbubbles has …

Using broadband noise as a measure of cavitation activity, this study determined the kinetics
of cavitation during sonication of Optison® contrast agent and tested whether cellular …

The occurrence of cell lysis following exposure to ultrasound (US) has been well
documented; the specifics of the mechanistic process (es) involved have proven to be …
