Nonthermal plasma--A tool for decontamination and disinfection.
TL;DR: Nonthermal plasma usage expanded to new biological areas of application like plasma microorganisms' in activation, ready-to-eat food preparation, biofilm degradation or in healthcare, where it seems to be important for the treatment of cancer cells and in the initiation of apoptosis, prion inactivation, prevention of nosocomial infections or in the therapy of infected wounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution to the Chemistry of Plasma-Activated Water
TL;DR: In this paper, the activation of water was performed in atmosphere of various surrounding gases (air, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and argon), and it was concluded that the longlasting biological effect of PAW is mediated by hydrogen peroxide in acid milieu only, whereas other possible active components decompose rapidly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Nonthermal Plasma on Wheat Grains and Products
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of nonthermal plasma (NTP) treatment on both the wheat grains and flour with potential to be applied in practice are discussed. But, the NTP can be used in wheat grain surface disinfection, grain germination and vitality improving, and wheat flour modification and disinfection.
Journal ArticleDOI
