 NEW YORK STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT PEF LABOR
PEF: If employees had the opportunity to participate in the ERI every year, there would be less of a deluge of persons taking advantage of it because they would not see it as a one time chance that they would not have again, as it might be seen now.

 FDA/CFSAN: Kinetics of Microbial Inactivation for Alternative Food Processing Technologies -- Pulsed Electric Fields
For food quality attributes, PEF technology is considered superior to traditional heat treatment of foods because it avoids or greatly reduces the detrimental changes of the sensory and physical properties of foods (Quass 1997).
The PEF treatment and ionic strength were responsible for electroporation and compression of the cell membrane, whereas the pH of the medium affected the cytoplasm when the electroporation was complete.
To ensure desirable temperature during PEF processing of foods, digital thermocouples or fiber optic probes must be used to record the temperature the entrance and exit of the PEF treatment chamber.

 Lung function testing - PEF - Peak expiratory flow
PEF is appreciably larger if the maneuver is performed without pause immediately after the inspiration than if it is performed after a pause (ref. 2).
