20.500.12556/RUL-173296 Cold atmospheric plasma for water disinfection mechanisms, efficacy and resistant bacteria inactivation The overuse and misuse of antibiotics has accelerated the emergence of antibiotic resistant microorganisms, posing challenges healthcare and environmental safety. These pathogens are particularly problematic in hospital wastewater, where conventional disinfection often fails, allowing the spread of resistance genes. Cold atmospheric plasma offers an innovative solution by generating Plasma activated water, which further inactivates resistant bacteria without promoting additional resistance. CAP's eco-friendly nature and broad-spectrum antimicrobial efficacy make it a potential breakthrough in combating antimicrobial resistance. Its effectiveness depends on factors such as reactive species concentration, water pH, exposure time, and water composition. However, further research is needed to optimize treatment parameters, elucidate microbial inactivation mechanisms, and assess PAW's long-term impact for scalable applications. antibiotic resistant bacteria cold atmospheric plasma plasma activated water true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Članek v reviji 2025-09-15 13:19:04 2025-09-15 13:19:04 2025-12-11 04:39:41 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 29 str. iss. 8, art. e70050 Vol. 22 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 613 1612-8869 10.1002/ppap.70050 242460675 Plasma_Processes___Polymers_-_2025_-_Lunder_-_Cold_Atmospheric_Plasma_for_Water_Disinfection__Mechanisms__Efficacy_and.pdf Plasma_Processes___Polymers_-_2025_-_Lunder_-_Cold_Atmospheric_Plasma_for_Water_Disinfection__Mechanisms__Efficacy_and.pdf 1 06C68A8D2C195E581E27B3D6560C3257 7c2aa67c30ec91d2027d5c671dc6ef0e782a37c99d0a169a24704ebc7febf1cf c2e4515d-d5a5-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=223251 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ppap.70050 0 5036b3f8-d5a5-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=223250 Zdravstvena fakulteta Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
