Evaluating the roles of OH radicals, H2O2, ORP and pH in the inactivation of yeast cells on a tissue model by surface micro-discharge plasma

Abstract: Surface micro-discharge (SMD) plasma holds great potential as an effective, economical and safe method for the treatment of diverse skin infections. Although the antimicrobial effect of SMD plasma is undisputed, the factors most responsible for the inactivation effect and their corresponding killing mechanisms are still not fully understood. Herein, we evaluate the roles of hydroxyl radicals (•OH), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and pH in the inactivation of yeast cells on an… Show more

“…The inactivation of bacteria is dependent on biofilm thickness, the penetration depth of active particles and induced secondary products. Thus, hydrogen peroxide and OH radicals are very important in the process [ 2 , 11 , 37 ]. To test the effect of plasma-activated media compared to water vapor, we exposed the S. aureus biofilm to condensates and physiological solution (control sample).…”

“…The OH radical itself directly impacts microorganism cell membranes and provides inactivation of various pathogens [ 10 , 11 ] due to its highest oxidation potential [ 12 ]. Various LTPs have been developed to generate OH radicals by water molecule dissociation.…”

“…Antifungal treatment is another scope for plasma treatment in dermatology since the excellent killing of the most clinically relevant fungal strains by CAP has been shown in vitro. A significant reduction of fungal targets after plasma treatment has also been shown on fungal infection model nails and toenails [52–54]. Taken together, these studies indicate a promising application of CAP as an innovative therapy for onychomycosis.…”

“…Temperature and humidity of the chamber during the experiment were monitored with temperature and humidity sensors, and O 3 concentration in the chamber was measured with an O 3 detector (NGP5‐50‐O 3 ; Ningbo Gaopin Technology, Ningbo, China). Following Xu et al (2019). The pH of the aqueous solution was determined with a pH meter (LE438; Mettler‐Toledo, Zurich, Switzerland); OH was measured using terephthalic acid; H 2 O 2 concentration was determined using a Hydrogen Peroxide Assay Kit (Beyotime, S0038, Beijing, China).…”
