Abstract:

Recently non-thermal plasma (NTP) is applied for many therapeutic applications. By NTP irradiating to the tissues or cell-lines, the water molecules (H2O) would be also activated leading to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). By irradiating plasma to bio-solution, its main output including vacuum UV to UV causes the photolysis of H2O leading to generate hydroxyl (OH) molecules in couple forms with ability to convert to H2O2. Additionally, other plasma’s output the oxygen atoms could also penetrate under the liquid’s surface and react with H2O to generate H2O2. In NTP applications for killing unwanted-cells of microorganisms (e.g. sterilization) or cancerous tissues, the H2O2 molecule is the main reactive species for cell death via inducing DNA damage in mammalian cells. In this paper we proposed a mathematical model for NTP application describing the formation of hydroxyls in the bio solution and other subsequent reactions leading to DNA damage in vitro. The instant concentrations of the OH and H2O2, the main species for DNA oxidation were obtained and investigated in this simulation. In order to validate the model, the cellular response to NTP stimulation was compared with some experimental findings from viewpoint of DNA damage to show the significant consistency.

Modeling the thermal - 8 to - plasma

Excimer laser ablation of metals starts as a thermal process in the -1-J/cm2 fluence range and makes a rapid transition near 5 J/cm2 to a highly ionized plume (for IO-ns pulses). The 1-5-J/cm2 range is of particular interest because it overlaps the irradiance range used to fabricate high-temperature superconductors, diamondlike carbon films, and conducting Cu films. Covered here are analyses ai...

Discrimination of Human Cell Lines by Infrared Spectroscopy and Mathematical Modeling

Variations in biochemical features are extensive among cells. Identification of marker that is specific for each cell is essential for following the differentiation of stem cell and metastatic growing. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) as a biochemical analysis more focused on diagnosis of cancerous cells. In this study, commercially obtained cell lines such as Human ovarian carcin...
