Plasma-activated water (PAW)UltrasoundSoybeansSeed germinationPlant growthThe effect of two novel technologies, also in combination, on germination and growth of soybeans has been investigated. On one side, ultrasound treatment of the seeds increased water uptake without altering the morphology and the...
Fig. 1. Schematic diagram of the experimental setup (A) and preparation of plasma-activated water (B). 2. Materials and method 2.1. Plasma device and treatments As shown in Fig. 1B, the surface discharge plasma device consisted of a high-voltage plane electrode, a liquid-facing grounded me...
PAW treatments Full size image Under greenhouse conditions, 2-year old grapevine plants (3 plants/treatment) were partially uprooted, the roots were washed and irrigation devices were applied to acclimatize the plants before the treatments. After 3 weeks the root apparatus was drenched for 25 min ...
Plasma activated droplets, another type of plasma-treated water, are generally produced when compressed feeding gas carrying micro-sized droplets pass through the plasma discharge area (Fig.2). Previous studies have shown that plasma-treated droplets that accumulated H2O2, NO3−and NO2−species an...
Treatments also showed no negative effects on tomato quality. Therefore, PAL and PAL-U treatments could serve as effective methods for degrading pesticides on tomatoes. 展开 关键词: Tomato Radiofrequency plasma Plasma-activated water Plasma-activated buffer solution Ultrasound Fungicide degradation ...
[3]. Alternative non-thermal sanitation methods with chemical sanitizers like ozone, chlorine, electrolyzed water, and peracetic acid or physical treatments such as high hydrostatic pressure, pulsed electric field, oscillating magnetic field, ultra-violet (UV) or gamma irradiation, and high-power ...
A strategy to selectively attach more Ag nanoparticles on the external surface of activated carbon (AC) is being proposed and used as an antibacterial medium for water disinfection. Ag nanoparticles were first synthesized under UV irradiation by reducing silver nitrate with sodium citrate; the latter...
In most cases present in the literature, during the treatments discharges are in contact with water or operating in water. Apart from the configurations where short- and long-lived reactive species created in the plasma are in direct contact with the contaminated solution, there are also examples...
and hormonal changes89. Treatments with plasma-activated water induce plant growth as well as endogenous production of ROS and RON, defense hormone metabolism, and up regulation of pathogenesis-related genes in tomato seedlings90, thus enhancing resistance against bacterial leaf spot91. Our results sug...
