Could we accomplish similarly shaped pulses with a boost converter?

Bit of a break from electroporation:

I just got some free samples of inductors from Fastron (Malaysia)
based on some DIY boost converter online calculator. From the
calculator though, the inductance value required changes a lot when
the current changes, so I'm not sure how you'd regulate that between
samples etc. I was looking at this circuit for doing high voltage
electrophoresis, that's where my current (Amps) for the calculator
came from, but generally resistance of a gel changes throughout the
run... so again not sure how the output voltage would change.
