TLDR
In this paper, the most important mechanisms of generation and transport of the key species in the plasmas of atmospheric-pressure plasma jets and other non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasms are introduced and examined from the viewpoint of their applications in plasma hygiene and medicine and other relevant fields.

Transport and accumulation of plasma generated species in aqueous solution.

TL;DR: A 2D fluid dynamics model for the interaction between a plasma jet and liquid water indicates that the formed reactive species originate from either the gas phase (with further solvation) or are formed at the liquid interface.

Anti-cancer capacity of plasma-treated PBS: effect of chemical composition on cancer cell cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: It is found that pPBS might be more suitable for practical applications in a clinical setting than (commonly used) plasma-activated media (PAM), because of its higher stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

In-package cold plasma technologies

TL;DR: This review presents an examination of the design aspects of the in-package plasma systems, the packaging requirements, and discusses their efficacy with respect to microbiological and chemical safety of foods.

Cold atmospheric plasma for SARS-CoV-2 inactivation.

TL;DR: An efficient cold atmospheric plasma with argon feed gas is employed to inactivate SARS-CoV-2 on various surfaces including plastic, metal, cardboard, basketball composite leather, football leather, and baseball leather to demonstrate the great potential of CAP as a safe and effective means to prevent virus transmission and infections for a wide range of surfaces that experience frequent human contact.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Specific Vulnerabilities of Cancer Cells to the Cold Atmospheric Plasma-Stimulated Solutions.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that pancreatic cancer cells and glioblastoma cells were specifically vulnerable to PSM and PSB, respectively and a basic guideline that the toxicity of PSS on cancer cells could be significantly modulated through controlling the dilutability of solution is demonstrated.

Superoxide Dismutase AN ENZYMIC FUNCTION FOR ERYTHROCUPREIN (HEMOCUPREIN)

TL;DR: The demonstration that O2·- can reduce ferricytochrome c and tetranitromethane, and that superoxide dismutase, by competing for the superoxide radicals, can markedly inhibit these reactions, is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free Radicals in the Physiological Control of Cell Function

Wulf Dröge
TL;DR: There is growing evidence that aging involves, in addition, progressive changes in free radical-mediated regulatory processes that result in altered gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric Oxide and Peroxynitrite in Health and Disease

TL;DR: Current evidence indicates that most of the cytotoxicity attributed to NO is rather due to peroxynitrite, produced from the diffusion-controlled reaction between NO and another free radical, the superoxide anion, which is presented in detail in this review.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photodynamic therapy for cancer

TL;DR: PDT is being tested in the clinic for use in oncology — to treat cancers of the head and neck, brain, lung, pancreas, intraperitoneal cavity, breast, prostate and skin.

Photodynamic Therapy

C.J. Gomer
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of mechanisms of subcellular and tumor localization of photosensitizing agents, as well as of molecular, cellular, and tumor responses associated with photodynamic therapy, are discussed.
