Physical and biological mechanisms of direct plasma interaction with living tissue (2009, background): “Plasma treatment has been previously shown to be safe to skin by various research groups around the world [1, 3, 15, 23, 49, 50].”
Applied Plasma Medicine (2008, background): “and colleagues: plasma plume (a helium jet) [51, 52], and an arc-like discharge between metal and water in air [53, 54].”
Characterization of pulsed atmospheric-pressure plasma streams (PAPS) generated by a plasma gun (2012, methodology): “This PAPS labelling includes the so-called plasma bullet proposed by the pioneering work of Laroussi and Lu [11], but in the rare gas flow inside the capillary in our experimental conditions.”
Correlation between helium mole fraction and plasma bullet propagation in low temperature plasma jets (2010, background): “Although the main excited species are N+ 2 and N2 due to the surrounding air diffusing into the plasma bullets [3], helium atoms play a key role to initiate many chemical reactions inside the plasma jet.”
The emerging role of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in redox biology and some implications for plasma applications to medicine and biology (2012, neutral): “One such configuration was named the ‘plasma pencil,’ a system designed by Laroussi [36].”
