Journal ArticleDOI
Applied Plasma Medicine
Gregory Fridman,Gary Friedman,Alexander Gutsol,Anatoly B. Shekhter,Victor N. Vasilets,Alexander Fridman +5 more
TL;DR: Non-equilibrium plasmas will be shown to be non-destructive to tissue, safe, and effective in inactivation of various parasites and foreign organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-thermal atmospheric pressure discharges
TL;DR: In this paper, the four most important and widely used varieties of non-thermal discharges: corona, dielectric barrier, gliding arc and spark discharge are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical and biological mechanisms of direct plasma interaction with living tissue
TL;DR: Analysis of interaction of floating electrode dielectric barrier discharge with living tissues and cells is presented and biological and physical mechanisms are discussed and a hypothesis of plasma selectivity and its effects is offered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Floating Electrode Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma in Air Promoting Apoptotic Behavior in Melanoma Skin Cancer Cell Lines
Gregory Fridman,Alexey Shereshevsky,Monika Jost,Ari D. Brooks,Alexander Fridman,Alexander Gutsol,Victor N. Vasilets,Gary Friedman +7 more
TL;DR: Initiation of apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is an important issue in cancer treatment as cancer cells frequently have acquired the ability to block apoptosis and thus are more resistant to chemotherapeutic drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Direct and Indirect Effects of Non‐Thermal Atmospheric‐Pressure Plasma on Bacteria
Gregory Fridman,Ari D. Brooks,Manjula Balasubramanian,Alexander Fridman,Alexander Gutsol,Victor N. Vasilets,Halim Ayan,Gary Friedman +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that direct influence of the plasma, where charged particles contact bacteria directly, produces inactivation much faster than the indirect treatment, where plasma afterglow is delivered to the bacteria with a gas flow through the plasma region.
