Atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma (APNTP) has been gaining increasing interest as
a new alternative antibacterial approach. Although this approach has demonstrated
promising antibacterial activity, its exact mechanism of action remains unclear. Mechanistic
elucidation of the antimicrobial activity will facilitate development and rational optimisation of
this approach for potential medical applications. In this study, the antibacterial efficacy of an
in-house-built APNTP jet was evaluated alongside an investigation of the interactions …
