Abstract
Steady-state atmospheric pressure nonthermal plasmas can splendidly debilitate bacteria in liquids, gases, and on surfaces, as well as can disintegrate hazardous chemicals. The nonthermal resistive barrier gas discharge at atmospheric pressure is currently investigated for low-temperature sterilization purposes. We have carried out electrical, chemical, optical, and biological studies of the discharge, with the intent of identifying the chemically and biologically active species produced. In this paper, we have demonstrated that effective decontamination can be achieved without causing any damage to the active media.
