To avoid the influence of different media, the cells were suspended in phosphate buffered, saline and shock wave treated. In all cases the acute cytotoxic effect (measured by flow cytometry) was a function of the applied shock waves. The investigated cells differed in their LD 50 values which, however, do not reveal a general difference in sensitivity to shock waves for normal and malignant cells.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessExtrakorporale Stoßwellenlithotripsie , Zellkultur , Cytotoxin570article
