Liquid-phase plasma is not well known, although it has been used sparingly in water treatments and electrical discharge machining. We have named the liquid-phase plasma “solution plasma” and developed solution plasma processing (SPP). This paper reports the applications of SPP to syntheses of nanoparticles, surface modification of metals, and sterilization of water.

The study of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) began about a decade ago. Currently, multiple applications CAP have been discovered including biomedicine, nanomaterials, agriculture, and water purifications. At the current stage these research fields, it is obvious that next move will be optimization for each specific application. For example, in field plasma-based cancer treatment, due to different...

Atmospheric pressure plasma is generated via electrical discharge under atmospheric pressure, and the electron energy generally higher than that of other particles such as ions neutral particles. In this state, becomes a non-equilibrium state. Plasma ozone being utilized in several applications high-performance sterilization. Dielectrics glass, quartz, ceramics are used dielectric barrier (DBD)...

Radiation is widely used in biomaterials science for surface modification and sterilization. Herein, we describe the use of plasma and UV-irradiation to improve the biocompatibility of different starch-based blends in terms of cell adhesion and proliferation. Physical and chemical changes, introduced by the used methods, were evaluated by complementary techniques for surface analysis such as sc...

Present work investigated the effects of processing (homogenization, sterilization) and cold storage on physicochemical properties, in vitro digestion Caco-2 cellular uptake bovine milk. Extreme heat sterilization low temperature have significant impact particle size phospholipidome In addition, milks led to formation β' polymorphs crystals endothermic peak with Toffset higher than body tempera...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new technique for sterilizing nonlumen electrophysiology catheters that uses hydrogen peroxide gas plasma. BACKGROUND The reuse of electrophysiology catheters may potentially result in a significant cost savings. While ethylene oxide sterilization appears to be safe and effective from a clinical standpoint, toxic ethylene oxide residuals,...

Specialty polymerS Solvay’s high-performance plastics continue to find a wide variety of opportunities in the healthcare market. The demand for alternatives to metal continues to grow for instruments and devices, in addition to the tray systems that support them. Solvay offers the largest selection of high-performance polymers for the healthcare industry, which includes five unique chemistries....

Atmospheric pressure streamers intersecting particles are of interest in the context of plasma aided combustion, where the particle may be a fuel aerosol droplet, or in sterilization of air, where the particle may be a bacterium. The ion energy and angular distributions (IEADs) incident on the particles, small curved dielectric surfaces, then in part determine the propensity for activating chem...

grape is used in large amounts and different types (fresh, raisin, vinegar, molasses, juice, unriped grape and etc). remarkable amount also are preserved in stores and cold-rooms to be supplied out of season, that causes  quality and weight decrease. this research was conducted to study different factors which affect the grape shelf-life. obtaining more information about optimum conditions and ...
