Functionalization of Porous Membranes by Using Cold Plasma

Microbial Decontamination of Spices Using Cold Plasma

Most of spices are produced using traditional systems. In unsanitary conditions, spices can contain large numbers of pathogenic microbes such as bacteria, molds and yeasts. Some microorganisms are known as human pathogens, which need disinfection mechanisms that minimize their potential harms to active substances in spices. Use of contaminated spices in foods can significantly decrease the shel...

Dry Reforming of Methane Using Cold Plasma; Kinetic Model Study

In this work, the dry reforming of methane was studied using a corona and gliding discharge plasma microreactors. A chemical kinetic model was developed to describe the experimental behavior observed. The kinetic model is proposed based on the assumption that the reactant molecules CH4 or CO2 are attacked by active species produced b...

Prefracture and cold-fracture images of yeast plasma membranes

Fracture-temperature related differences in the ultrastructure of plasmalemma P faces of freeze-fractured baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) have been observed in high-resolution replicas prepared in freeze-etch systems pumped to 2 X 10(-7) torr in which the specimens were protected from contamination by use of liquid nitrogen-cooled shrouds. Two major P-face images were observed regardle...
