Interaction between Cold Atmospheric Plasma Jet and Water Contaminated With Pseudomonas Aeroginosa Bacteria for Decontamination Purpose

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...

Study of an RF cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet: mass spectrometry and bacteria inactivation

In the past few years, the bactericidal effect of atmospheric pressure plasmas have gained significant attention in dermatology and for application like the sterilisation of heat sensitive medical devices such as endoscopes, dentist and surgical tools. Previous research performed at the TUe by van Gils et al has shown that plasma induced liquid chemistry is important in the inactivation of bact...

design and construction of triplet atmospheric cold plasma jet for sterilization

in this paper, construction of triplet atmospheric plasma jet using argon, air, oxygen and nitrogen gases is reported. bactericidal effect of the plasma jet is also investigated. to that end, longitudinal geometric configuration for the electrodes was chosen because it would increase the jet length. electrical characteristics, jet length dependencies on the applied voltage and gas flow rate wer...

Mycotoxin Decontamination of Food: Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma versus “Classic” Decontamination

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by several filamentous fungi, which frequently contaminate our food, and can result in human diseases affecting vital systems such as the nervous and immune systems. They can also trigger various forms of cancer. Intensive food production is contributing to incorrect handling, transport and storage of the food, resulting in increased levels of mycot...
