Effects on cell viability, growth and morphology of C. albicans SC5314 biofilms after kINPen®09 plasma treatment [PDF]
Abstract Microorganisms are predominantly organized in biofilms, where cells live in dense communities and are more resistant to external stresses compared to their planktonic counterparts. With in vitro experiments, the susceptibility of Candida albicans

Selective Effects of Cold Atmospheric Plasma on Bone Sarcoma Cells and Human Osteoblasts
Background: The use of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) in oncology has been intensively investigated over the past 15 years as it inhibits the growth of many tumor cells. It is known that reactive oxidative species (ROS) produced in CAP are responsible for

Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Spatial Cell Death and Oxidative Stress Dynamics in Gas Plasma‐Treated Tumor Tissues
Schematic representation of the four experimental models to study tissue penetration and oxidation. Four tissue models were used. Human pancreatic cancer cells were grown on the chorioallantois membrane of chicken embryos and gas plasma‐treated in ovo, murine colorectal tumor tissue was gas plasma‐exposed ex vivo, murine squamous cell carcinoma cells ...

Representative MS spectra of untreated control and kINPen-treated cysteine solutions.
Cysteine was treated with kINPen for 30 s using Ar with 0.3% O2 + 0.7% N2 as working gas and 5 slm N2 as curtain gas. The peak at 124.02 m/z represents the internal standard (IS). Selection of identified peaks: cysteine (120.01 m/z), cystine (239.02 m/z),

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Molecular Staging, Risk Factors, Therapeutics, and Emerging Trends
The heterogeneous landscape of DPN can be unified through a tripartite pathogenic model encompassing progressive stages of metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and overt neuronal damage. Within this framework, six clinical subtypes were identified, namely, hyperglycemia‐driven, dyslipidemia‐driven, inflammation‐driven, dysvascularity‐driven ...

Argon Cold Plasma Modification of Polyethylene Films to Tailor Surface and Barrier Properties
Argon cold plasma treatment of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) films induces major changes in surface chemistry and morphology. Contact angles decrease significantly while surface energy increases, improving wettability. FTIR confirms the formation of polar functional groups, while pronounced etching, roughness, and
