  • Patent number: 6344349
    Abstract: A process and system for electrical extraction of intracellular matter from biological matter, and intracellular matter products formed thereby, based on preparing a mixture of biological matter featuring cells, and an electro-conductive liquid, and electrifying the mixture by transmitting controlled cycles of pulses and pauses of electrical current into the mixture by using electrodes, whereby the pulses of electrical current pierce holes into or perforate the cell membranes of the cells, enabling the release of intracellular matter for collecting and separating into target intracellular matter extract and solid waste. Pauses included in each cycle of transmitting pulses of electrical current enable firm control of electrical extraction processing conditions, including extent of extraction, temperature effects, and pressure effects, during the electrical extraction process.
