Electrolysis instrument to denature cells at biological tissue, e.g. human skin, has a concentric pair of electrodes to vary the tissue pH in a locally defined zone

摘要

The instrument to develop a locally defined acidosis in biological tissue, for a controlled cell denaturing, changes the tissue pH by a locally defined electrolysis. The instrument delivers a controlled application of current, together with a time control. The current flow is through a pair of concentric electrodes as a ring around a sprung center electrode. The center electrode is exchangeable to give a choice of diameters and current densities.
