design and construction of triplet atmospheric cold plasma jet for sterilization

طراحی و ساخت جت پلاسمای سه‌گانه سرد فشار اتمسفری و بکارگیری آن در استریلیزاسیون

In this paper, construction of triplet atmospheric plasma jet using argon, air, oxygen and nitrogen gases is reported. Bactericidal effect of the plasma jet is also investigated. To that end, longitudinal geometric configuration for the electrodes was chosen because it would increase the jet length. Electrical characteristics, jet length dependencies on the applied voltage and gas flow rate wer...

Simulation of a Helium Atmospheric Plasma Jet Using Fluid Equations

In this study, a cold atmospheric He plasma jet is investigated. The jet is of dielectric barrier discharge type, consisting of a dielectric tube with two metal ring electrodes. The continuity, momentum and energy conservation equations as well as the Poisson equation for obtaining the potential and the electric field, accompanied with the ideal gas laws, are used for the simulation. The result...

Cold atmospheric plasma jet in an axial DC electric field

Integrin activation by a cold atmospheric plasma jet

Current breakthrough research on cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) demonstrates that CAP has great potential in various areas, including medicine and biology, thus providing a new tool for living tissue treatment. In this paper, we explore potential mechanisms by which CAP alters cell migration and influences cell adhesion. We focus on the study of CAP interaction with fibroblasts and corneal epith...

In vitro Assessment of Antiviral Activity of Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jet against the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)

Introduction: The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a threat to global health and the need for finding new methods of antivirus research, in particular against HIV has increased in recent years. In this study, we investigated the ability of the cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet (CAPPJ) using helium to inhibit the replication of HIV virions. Methods: Single cycle replicable HIV (SCR-HIV) ...

Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma source design and construction using Argon as the working gas for wound healing

In this research, a non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet device was constructed for skin wound treatment. For this reason, five mice were treated for five consecutive days for 30 s, in a daily manner. Natural wound healing time was monitored and compared with the treated one in 12 consecutive days. The measurement of voltage, current and power waveforms of the plasma source, the optical ...
