Abstract

The efficacy of the plasma pencil is studied for its cancer therapeutics effects against the SCaBER cell line. First, the SCaBER cells in media were treated with different exposure times of low temperature plasma (LTP). Secondly, LTP activated media was generated by treating the media prior to adding it to the cells. Cell viability was assayed at 0, 24, 48, and 72 h after treatments. The results indicate that both treatments alter cell morphology, cell reattachment, and kill SCaBER cells in an exposure time dependent and delayed manner. Caspase‐3 assays reveal that plasma can activate the cells' apoptotic pathways.
