The microbial inactivation ability of low temperature plasma treatment generated by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) on bread-born mold (black bread mold) is investigated. It is shown that the plasma treatment can effectively decrease the mold growth rate. The longer plasma treatment time is, the more mold spores are inactivated. On the other hand, plasma treatment […]
The hydrophobic nature of synthetic polymers poses a substantial barrier since it limits cell-seeding and proliferation scaffold performance. To overcome this challenge, the present research attempts to employ in-situ UV electrospinning and plasma surface modification techniques to fabricate a three-dimensional PAN/PVA-gelatin scaffold. The proposed scaffold holds great potential in mitigating hydrophobicity limitations, thereby facilitating […]
AbstractNanocrystalline nickel oxide (NiO) thin films were successfully grown on quartz substrates by two-step method. In the first step, nickel films were deposited on quartz substrates by DC magnetron sputtering technique. Then, the plasma oxidation of nickel films was used for preparation of nickel oxide. The effect of DC plasma power and treatment time on […]
