The increasing interest towards biocompatible nanotechnologies in medicine, combined with electric fields stimulation, is leading to the development of electro-sensitive smart systems for drug delivery applications. Common examples of electro-sensitive materials include phospholipids that can be used to design nano-sized vesicles suitable for external electric actuation. To this regard, recently the use of pulsed electric fields to trigger release across phospholipid membranes has been numerically studied, for a deeper understanding of the phenomena at the molecular scale. Aim of this work is to give an experimental validation of the feasibility of controlling drug release from liposomes mediated by nanosecond pulsed electric fields.
