Figure 9

(a) The electric field strength around the cells and the TMP on the cell bottom are shown for the expectation values of the cell dielectric properties (Table 2). (b) Left axis: Mean and \(90\%\) prediction interval of the absolute value of the TMP at the cell bottom for the ellipsoid cell model shown in Fig. 3. Right axis: First order Sobol indices for each uncertain parameter, i.e. the conductivity (dark green) and permittivity (orange) of the membrane. The results were evaluated along the bottom line of the cell using the distance to the centre as an indicator for the location [as indicated by the red arrow in (a)].
