Experimental study on electrochemical treatment of cancer in mice.
Electrochemical treatment of cancers in mice resulted in at least partial regression or disappearance of transplanted SRS solid tumours and increased the survival time. Six days after treatment, lymphocyte infiltration in the tumour tissue was found. Seventy-one days after treatment, tumour cells were rarely found in the tissue. The application of direct current was found to facilitate the destruction of tumour cells in a shear stress field.
