TL;DR: It is demonstrated that FE-DBD plasma-mediated inactivation involves membrane lipid peroxidation in E. coli, and ROS scavengers, such as α-tocopherol (vitamin E), were able to significantly inhibit the extent of lipidperoxidation and oxidative DNA damage.

TL;DR: Application of DBD plasma can be a valuable decontamination technique for the removal of planktonic and biofilm-embedded bacteria such as MRSA -USA 300, -USA 400, methicillin-sensitive S aureus (MSSA), and E coli, the more common hospital contaminants.

TL;DR: The most common complications of VPS are discussed, including presentation and appropriate management, and they are most often observed in infants, with premature infants being the most susceptible.

TL;DR: The authors show that during deep (NREM) sleep, the prefrontal cortex initiates rapid, bidirectional interactions to trigger information transfer from the hippocampus to the neocortex, suggesting a model of the human sleeping brain in which rapid biddirectional interactions mediate hippocampal activation to optimally time subsequent information transfer to the neo- neocortex during NREM sleep.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that floating electrode-discharge barrier discharge (FE-DBD) nonthermal plasma is electrically safe to apply to living organisms for short periods and can be considered safe for future studies of external use under these threshold conditions for evaluation of sterilization, coagulation, and wound healing.
