Nonthermal Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas and their Applications to Plasma Bioscience and Medicines

Nonthermal Atmospheric Pressure Plasmas and their Applications to Plasma Bioscience and Medicines have been introduced for next generation human healthcare's quantum developments. Various kinds of nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasmas have been introduced and their electron temperature and plasma densities along with reactive oxygen and nitrogen species have been diagnosed and analyzed for biological cell interactions, especially, used in Plasma Bioscience Research Center (PBRC), Korea. Herein, we have also introduced the plasma-initiated ultraviolet photolysis, which might be a generation mechanism for the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) intracellular and extracellular regions inside the liquid when the plasma has been bombarded onto the water. Finally we have investigated the interactions of these RONS with the various cancer cells resulting in apoptotic cell death.
