Not knowing what electroporation is and being curious, I did some internet
poking around. Electroporation is an in-vitro process that uses high
voltages. Wikipedia, for instance, mentions use of pulsed 2,400 V, when
working with bacteria. See
John,
You will be happy (or maybe not) to know that this approach is still alive and
kicking with regard to medical equipment. A lithotriptor is a medical device
used to break up kidney stones. Its method of operation is to produce shock
waves in water by what is basically a spark plug. It is

I think that you will have to rely on the leakage current
requirements of the base standard, IEC 60601-1. The only particular
standard which may have relevance could be IEC 60601-2-2, PARTICULAR

Dear all,
does anybody know which particular standard (if it exist) should apply to a
medical device intended to be used for electroporation?
I'm mainly interested in requirements concerning limits on delivered power
(voltage/current) and operation frequency contraints.
