Abstract

The effects of high - intensity pulsed electric field on inactivation and cell membrane of E.coli were investigated.The results showed that when the applied electric intensity was higher than 20 kV/cm for 200μs,the number of survivable E.coli significantly decreased.The flow cytometry analysis of E.coli cells stained with PI showed high - intensity pulsed electric field could destroy the cell membrane and increase the permeability.When the applied electric intensity was higher than 20 kV/cm for 200μs,the PI stained cells percentage by flow cytometry sharply increases.
