INHIBITION OF <em>CANDIDA ALBICANS</em> GROWTH ON SURFACES TREATED BY DIELECTRIC BARRIER DISCHARGE WITH VARIOUS BARRIERS

INHIBITION OF <em>CANDIDA ALBICANS</em> GROWTH ON SURFACES TREATED BY DIELECTRIC BARRIER DISCHARGE WITH VARIOUS BARRIERS

Discharges generating low temperature plasma at atmospheric pressure have the potential to treat surfaces biologically contaminated by organic matter in a non-destructive manner. We have been studying ways of inhibiting the growth of microorganisms with the use of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD)...
