ROS from Physical Plasmas: Redox Chemistry for Biomedical Therapy

Figure 1

Schematic of two categories of commonly used plasma devices for medical application: dielectric barrier discharges and plasma jets. In dielectric barrier discharges, plasma is generated in atmospheric air directly onto the biological target (a), while in plasma jets, plasma is generated inside the device and delivered to the target via a flow of gas (b).
