TL;DR: Study indicate that the mechanism of action of cold plasma on cancer cells is related to generation of reactive oxygen species with possible induction of the apoptosis pathway and the cancer cells are more susceptible to the effects of CAP.

TL;DR: Cold atmospheric plasma induced a robust ~2-fold G2/M increase in two different types of cancer cells with different degrees of tumorigenicity, suggesting that tumorigenic cancer cells are more susceptible to CAP treatment.

TL;DR: In this article, a deterministic single-step approach to simultaneous production and magnetic separation of graphene flakes and carbon nanotubes in an arc discharge was proposed by splitting the high temperature growth and low-temperature separation zones using a non-uniform magnetic field and tailor-designed catalyst alloy.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel approach to large-scale production of high-quality graphene flakes in magneticallyenhanced arc discharges between carbon electrodes is reported, where a nonuniform magnetic field is used to control the growth and deposition zones, where the Y-Ni catalyst experiences a transition to the ferromagnetic state, which in turn leads to the graphene deposition in a collection area.

TL;DR: In this paper, the state-of-the-art of arc discharge technique of carbon nanoparticle synthesis is discussed, improving controllability of the arc discharge synthesis of carbon nanotubes, synthesis of graphene, and general understanding of the synthesis process.
