Cold-atmospheric plasma induces tumor cell death in preclinical in vivo and in vitro models of human cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
Cancers, 12, 1280, 2020, 2020 Through the last decade, cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has emerged as an innovative therapeutic option for cancer treatment. Recently, we have set up a potentially safe atmospheric pressure plasma jet device that displays antitumoral properties in a preclinical model of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a rare and very aggressive cancer emerging from the ...

Plasma gun for medical applications: engineering an equivalent electrical target of human body and deciphering relevant electrical parameters [PDF]
J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 52 16LT02 (2019), 2019 Simulations and experimental works have been carried out in a complementary way to engineer a basic material target mimicking the same dielectric properties of the human body. It includes a resistor in parallel with a capacitor, whose values (Rh=1500 {\Omega} and Ch=100 pF) are estimated in regard of parameters commonly utilized upon in vivo campaigns (
