2 Research objectives Recent studies show that the bactericidal effects of atmospheric pressure cold air plasmas in contact with are dominantly due to reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS). We investigated: Bactericidal effects in treated by DC-driven transient spark discharge in air at 1 atm DC - easy operation, low-cost power supplies Air - cheap, convenient for medical treatments, precursor of ROS/RNS Chemical effects induced in electro-sprayed through transient spark focus at ROS/RNS 1. changes of ph, electrolytic conductivity 2. hydrogen peroxide H 2 O 2 3. nitrites NO 2 and nitrates NO 3 4. peroxynitrites O=N-OO Oxidative stress of cell membranes induced by plasma treatment

7 Treated bacterial suspensions Escherichia coli (CCM 394) suspended in: Initial bacterial concentration ~1 7 CFU/mL Water: NaH 2 PO 4 solution (mimics tap ) (σ =.6 ms/cm, ph.3) PB: phosphate buffered solution Na 2 HPO 4 /KH 2 PO 4 (σ =. ms/cm, ph 6.9) Saline: physiological saline (NaCl) solution (σ = 6.3 ms/cm, ph 7) PBS: physiological saline (NaCl) solution with Na 2 HPO 4 /KH 2 PO 4 phosphate buffer (σ = 6 ms/cm, ph 6.8)

9 Effect of ph - vs. buffered Comparison of bio-decontamination in buffered/non-buffered solution Water and saline with dilute phosphate buffer (PB, PBS); ph fixed at 6.9 ph change: drop in non-buffered (. 3), little change in buffered (6.9 6) Bactericidal effect: much lower in PB (1 log) than in (6. logs) Long-term bactericidal effect: stronger in (~7 logs) but substantial also in PB (~3. logs) Log reduction after plasma hours later PB E. coli inactivation in non-buffered and PB buffered solution, directly after plasma treatment and h later.
10 Chemical effects vs. buffered Water (non-buffered): Acidification: ph. ~3 Conductivity.6 ~1.1 ms/cm Nitrites NO 2 ~.2 mmol/l Nitrates NO 3 ~1 mmol/l Peroxides H 2 O 2 ~.7 mmol/l PB: non-acidic environment ph little drop 6.9 ~6 Conductivity stays at.6 ms/cm Nitrites NO 2 ~.6 mmol/l Nitrates NO 3 ~.9 mmol/l Peroxides H 2 O 2 ~.4 mmol/l c [mm] High concentrations of NO 2- and NO treatment time per volume ~1.2x1 s/l very small droplets (~2 nl) sprayed through the plasma (3 ms time of flight) PB NO2- NO3- H2O2 NO 2-, NO 3- and H 2 O 2 concentrations in and PB solutions after plasma treatment.

12 Nitrites and hydrogen peroxide NO 2- strongly decay in acidified NO 2- seems related with strong bactericidal action - acidified nitrite D. Graves, J Phys D (212) M. Traylor, J Phys D (212) Direct bactericidal effect of NO 2 - at acidic ph: 3NO H + + H 2 O 2NO + NO 3- + H 3 O + Log reduction log NO2- H2O NO2 -, H2O2 [mm] H 2 O 2 produced more in than in PB PB. H 2 O 2 seems also related with strong bactericidal action Bacteria log reduction and nitrite concentration in and PB depending on ph after plasma treatment.
13 Peroxynitrites Formation of peroxynitrites from nitrites and hydrogen peroxide at acidic ph: H 2 O 2 + NO 2 O=N-OO + H 2 O Reactivity depends on ph. Fast decay in acidic ph: O=N-OOH OH + NO 2 K. Oehmingen, Plasma Proc. Polym (21, 211) In cells: O=N-OO - NO + O 2 Other possible ONOO - formation mechanisms: O 2 + NO O=N-OO OH + NO 2 O=N-OO + H + Log reduction log ONOO- PB Bacteria log reduction of and PB after plasma treatment correlated with relative ONOO- concentrations measured as DCFH fluorescence ONOO - [a.u.]
14 Is DCFH fluorescence specific to peroxynitrites? Dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) converts to highly fluorescent dichlorofluorescein (DCF) under the action of ROS Literature: DCFH much more sensitive to ONOO- than other ROS H. Possel, FEBS Lett J. P. Crow, Nitric Oxide: Biol. Chem We confirmed this experimentally by DCFH fluorescence in 1 mm H 2 O 2 solutions much weaker fluorescence signal DCFH fluorescence [a.u.] H2O2 ph~2. H2O2 ph~.6 plasma Recent cooperation with INP Greifswald confirmed low fluorescence from H 2 O 2 but non-negligible from OCl - - possible in saline solutions only (PBS)
15 Peroxone process H 2 O 2 in progressively decreased in time supports the expected phdependent reaction between NO 2 - and H 2 O 2 (peroxynitrite formation H 2 O 2 + NO 2 O=N-OO + H 2 O) H2O2 [mmol L -1 ] PB However, higher H 2 O 2 in immediately after plasma treatment compared to PB contradicts this reaction Time after plasma [h] Peroxone process between H 2 O 2 and ozone at ph >. should be considered!

18 Summary We investigated bio-decontamination of or saline solutions by electro-spray through the cold air plasma of transient spark. The treatment leads to acidification and the production of ROS/RNS: nitrites, nitrates, peroxides and peroxynitrites. At lowered ph, nitrites are quickly oxidized to nitrates or peroxynitrites (with peroxides) - associated with the strong bactericidal effect of E. coli bacteria. At neutral ph in buffered solutions, nitrites are less oxidized and the bactericidal effect is weaker; Peroxone reaction of ozone with H 2 O 2 should be considered. The bactericidal effect correlates with the amount of the formed peroxynitrites, as well as with the oxidative stress induced in cell membranes measured by TBARS method. It seems that that the interacting nitrites and peroxides in acidic conditions are the dominant bactericidal agents in sprayed through air plasma + potential mechanism via peroxynitrites.
