Background/purposeAtmospheric-pressure plasma is a new technology for biomedical applications. Utilization of an ionized gas (plasma) to achieve disinfection is an alternative sterilization technique that has become popular recently due to its safety, cost effectiveness, and superior performance to traditional methods. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the germicidal effectiveness of a low-temperature atmospheric-pressure plasma device by treating Enterococcus faecalis for different durations.
