Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma-Induced Destruction of Bacterial Cell Wall Components: A Reactive Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Maksudbek Yusupov,Annemie Bogaerts,Stijn Huygh,Ramses Snoeckx,Adri C. T. van Duin,Erik C. Neyts +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction mechanisms between nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasmas are studied for biomedical applications, but very little fundamental information on the interaction mechanism between the plasma s...
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergistic effect of electric field and lipid oxidation on the permeability of cell membranes.
TL;DR: It is shown how oxidation of the lipids in the PLB leads to an increase of the permeability of the bilayer to ROS, although the permeation free energy barriers still remain relatively high, and also of more general interest for applications where strong electric fields and ROS both come into play.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive molecular dynamics simulations of oxygen species in a liquid water layer of interest for plasma medicine
Maksudbek Yusupov,Erik C. Neyts,Peter Simon,Golibjon Berdiyorov,Ramses Snoeckx,A. C. T. van Duin,Annemie Bogaerts +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the interaction of reactive oxygen species (i.e., O, OH, HO2 and H2O2) with water was investigated as a simple model system for the liquid layer surrounding biomolecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic-scale simulations of reactive oxygen plasma species interacting with bacterial cell walls
Maksudbek Yusupov,Erik C. Neyts,Umedjon Khalilov,Ramses Snoeckx,A. C. T. van Duin,Annemie Bogaerts +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction of important plasma species, such as O3, O2 and O atoms, with bacterial peptidoglycan (or murein) was investigated by means of reactive molecular dynamics simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of head group and lipid tail oxidation in the cell membrane revealed through integrated simulations and experiments
TL;DR: It is found that plasma treatment leads to a slight initial rise in membrane rigidity, followed by a strong and persistent increase in fluidity, indicating a drop in lipid order, which is elucidates the underlying mechanisms of ROS interaction with the cell membrane at the atomic level.
