The development and application of a cold atmospheric plasma generator for treatment of skin and soft-tissue injuries in animals

Аннотация

We describe a device for obtaining cold plasma in air at atmospheric pressure using a system of positive high-voltage pin electrodes, which is intended for the treatment of skin and soft-tissue injuries in animals. Plasma is generated due to the development of periodic pulsed discharge of nanosecond duration at current pulse amplitudes 10–20 mA, characteristic frequencies 10–20 kHz, and applied voltages within 8–10 kV. The high efficacy of the proposed device and method is confirmed by the good clinical results of treating large domestic animals with traumatic injuries.
