  • Device for inactivating bacteria on the surface of the stratum corneum layer of skin
    Patent number: 10384051
    Abstract: The present application relates to a device for the electroporation of bacterial cells in or on a surface of the Stratum corneum layer of a person's skin. It comprises electrodes positionable in the vicinity of said surface; a generator to supply a voltage to the electrodes to generate an electrical field having a strength in the order of 25 to 35 KV/cm at said surface of the Stratum corneum layer to inactivate bacterial cells in or on said surface. The electrodes are configured so that the strength of the electrical field reduces as a function of the depth of penetration into the skin from 25 to 35 KV/cm at said surface to 3 KV/cm or less at a depth of penetration that does not exceed 15 microns.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 29, 2015
