“…The speed at which sterilization can be completed is high. There is no poisonous substance remained and the disinfection is thorough [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] . In this experiment we Yating TU, preliminarily examined the sterilizing effect of atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasmas (APNPs) on Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N. gonorrhoeae) and explored the possible mechanism.…”

“…Montie et al [8] considered membrane lipid alteration caused by fatty acid peroxide formation and protein oxidation as a possible path to affect the cell. In addition, chemical etching can be expected by reactive oxygen radicals [12,13]. Mendis et al [2,7] suggested that charged particles can accumulate on the outer cell membrane.…”

“…Several mechanisms were initially suspected for destruction of bacteria and spores: reaction with chemically reactive species (like free radicals), electrical interaction and sputtering with charged particles, and exposure to UV radiation. Inactivation of bacteria by means of chemically reactive species has been observed by many groups [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Atomic oxygen, ozone, hydroxyl, peroxyl, and NO x radicals are some of the species with demonstrated effects on cells [4].…”
