The Effect of Plasma Jet on Blood Components of Mice Infected With Diabetes

Abstract

The diabetes can be induced by injecting “Alloxan” into animals. it shows a good response in animals specially in “mice, rabbits, mice, dog, and rats”. The drug dosage is between “90 and 200mg/kg of the body weight”. The “Alloxan” motivate “blood glucose” and the experimental animals shows response to the injected drug. The samples which are used in this study are mice male gender with age ranging between three and four months and weight (20-25)gm, these mice are injected with “Alloxan” with a dose of alloxan(200mg/kg) to study effect of alloxan on blood compounds (The cells of white blood, the cells of Red blood and platelets) and study the effect of plasma jet on the infected mice for different time exposure, the component of blood shows different response to the plasma jet effect the White Blood Cells (WBC) and the Platelets(PLT) approach the normal case in the 30 second, the Red Blood Cells (RBC) , HGB the concentration of hemoglobin in whole blood and (HCT) the ratio of red blood cells to the volume of blood plasma approach the normal case in 50 second, the (MCV) mean cell volume approach the normal value in 10 second.

Effects of Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma on Streptococcus mutans isolated from Dental Caries

“…It is an adhesin of the lipoprotein receptor antigen I (LraI) family, which was first described in various bacterial species and assists bacteria to actively move and adhere to other surfaces, including extracellular matrix, salivary agglutinin, other plaque bacteria, as well as receptors on the surface of epithelial cells [14]. Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) is a form of ionized gas that possesses similar numbers of ions and electrons with positive and negative charges [15,16]. In thermal terms, plasma is typically found in two forms, namely the equilibrium plasma, in which ions and electrons show thermodynamic equilibrium, and the non-equilibrium plasma, where electrons show significantly higher temperature as compared to ions and neutrals [17].…”
