Abstract

We studied low-temperature plasma effects on Paramecium caudatum using the original electric arc plasmatron. The decrease in the number of experimental cells has been shown, which may indicate membrane destructive pathology due to oxidative stress induced by the plasma impact. It is concluded that reactions at the population level of Paramecium caudatum are effective indices of primary information about plasma radiation cytotoxicity.
