The gases plasma from several different gases has shown a sporicidal activity. From these gases, nitrogen gas was most difficult to produce atomic nitrogen radicals. However, these radicals have a high energy, indicating that nitrogen gas plasma could be used to sterilize microorganisms and inactivate endotoxins and lipid A. The sterilization mechanism of nitrogen gas plasma may be the synergis...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of egg yolk and cooling on ram coated spermatozoa. semen was collected from three ram by artificial vagina contacted with a tube containing tris- fructose-egg yolk 15%. samples were pooled, centrifuged by 700 g for 10 min and removed supernatant. then, samples were diluted by tris-glucose and centrifuged again to remove seminal plasma and egg yolk...

Alprazolam is most commonly used benzodiazepine in overdose for deliberate self-poisoning. Glutaraldehyde cold sterilization of medical, surgical and dental equipment. Poisoning due to accidental exposure as well self-poisoning common with glutaraldehyde. Self-inflicted or hesitational cuts are associated suicide attempted suicidal gestures their examination an important task forensic expert.

Low temperature air plasma was used to sterilize the Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa ATCC15442) samples on the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheet in a self-designed reactor that included the discharge area, afterglow area and remote area. The air plasma sterilization rules in the three zones were respectively showed on the following conditions: discharge power was 60W and gas flux was...

Effects of cold plasma treatment on seed germination, seedling growth, antioxidant enzymes, lipid peroxidation levels and osmotic-adjustment products of oilseed rape under drought stress were investigated in a drought-sensitive (Zhongshuang 7) and drought-tolerant cultivar (Zhongshuang 11). Results showed that, under drought stress, cold plasma treatment significantly improved the germination r...

Plasma is an ionized gas that is typically generated in high-temperature laboratory conditions. Recent progress in atmospheric plasmas led to the creation of cold plasmas with ion temperature close to room temperature. We have demonstrated the efficacy of cold plasma in a pre-clinical model of various cancer types (long, bladder, and skin). Both in-vitro and in-vivo studies revealed that cold p...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of 4 new low-temperature sterilization technologies: ethylene oxide with hydrochlorofluorocarbons, a liquid peracetic acid immersion system (Steris System 1 Processor), and 2 plasma sterilization processes that use vaporized hydrogen peroxide (Sterrad 100 and the Sterrad 100S). The Sterrad 100S system potentially improves sterilizer e...

Sterilization of municipal waste for a raw material the production refuse-derived fuel and to protect surface ground waters against biological contamination during transfer storage creates lot problems. This paper evaluates antimicrobial potential non-equilibrium plasma in relation selected groups microorganisms found humid waste. The proposed research is determine whether mixed used alternativ...

introduction: regret after sterilization, not only requires an expensive surgical procedure for recanalization, but also can affect the couples’ inter and intra-relationships. whence, undergoing sterilization in sistan and baluchestan has the lowest rate compared to other provinces, the habitants’ regret after sterilization may further discourage other volunteers of the procedures. therefore, t...
