Prevention of bacterial colonization on non-thermal atmospheric plasma treated surgical sutures for control and prevention of surgical site infections. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Surgical site infections have a remarkable impact on morbidity, extended hospitalization and mortality. Sutures strongly contribute to development of surgical site infections as they are considered foreign material in the human body.

Strain specificity in antimicrobial activity of non-thermal plasma
Iraqi Journal of Physics, 2019 Non-thermal (low-temperature) plasma may act as an alternative approach to control superficial wound and skin infections when the effectiveness of chemical agents is weak due to natural pathogen or biofilm resistance.

The Thermal Properties of Gliding arc Plasma Produced by Laboratory Reverse Vortex Flow System
Iraqi Journal of Physics, 2021 A low-cost reverse flow plasma system powered by argon gas pumping was built using homemade materials in this paper. The length of the resulting arc change was directly proportional to the flow rate, while using the thermal camera to examine the thermal ...

A Review of Microbial Decontamination of Cereals by Non-Thermal Plasma [PDF]
Foods, 2021 Cereals, an important food for humans and animals, may carry microbial contamination undesirable to the consumer or to the next generation of plants. Currently, non-thermal plasma (NTP) is often considered a new and safe microbicidal agent without or with very low adverse side effects.
