Effect of Cold Plasma Treatment on Seed Germination and Growth of Wheat

Jiafeng Jiang, Xin He, Ling Li et al. · 1 Jan 2014

This study investigated the effect of cold helium plasma treatment on seed germination, growth and yield of wheat. The effects of different power of cold plasma on the germination of treated wheat seeds were studied. We found that the treatment of 80 W could significantly improve seed germination potential (6.0%) and germination rate (6.7%) compared…

Review on reactive species in water treatment using electrical discharge plasma: formation, measurement, mechanisms and mass transfer

Yang Cao, Guangzhou Qu, Tengfei Li et al. · 28 Jun 2018

In the electrical discharge plasma process, various chemical and physical processes can participate in the removal of contaminants. In this paper, the chemical and physical processes that occur as a result of the electrical discharge plasma are reviewed, and their possible roles in the degradation of contaminants are discussed. Measurement methods for the quantification of…

Stimulating Effects of Seed Treatment by Magnetized Plasma on Tomato Growth and Yield

Yin Meiqiang, Huang Mingjing, Ma Buzhou et al. · 1 Dec 2005

Tomato seeds (Lycopersicon esculentum L. Mill. cv. zhongshu No. 6) were treated by magnetized plasma before being sown to investigate its effect on the growth and yield of tomatoes. Biochemical analysis showed that dehydrogenase activity increased with the increase of the current but decreased when the current was higher than 1.5 A. The activities of…

Hybrid electric discharge plasma technologies for water decontamination: a short review

Kefeng Shang, Jie Li, Rino Morent · 3 Jan 2019

Electric discharge plasma (EDP) can efficiently degrade aqueous pollutants by its in situ generated strong oxidative species (·OH, ·O, H2O2, O3, etc) and other physiochemical effects (UV irradiation, shockwaves, local high temperature, etc), but a high energy consumptions limit the application of EDP in water treatment. Some adsorbents, catalysts, and oxidants have been employed for…

Effects of Atmospheric Pressure Air Plasma Pretreatment on the Seed Germination and Early Growth of<i>Andrographis paniculata</i>

Jiayun Tong, Rui He, Xiaoli Zhang et al. · 1 Mar 2014

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate whether air plasma can change the seed germination characteristics, seedling emergence, as well as biochemical reactivity, in Andrographis paniculata (A. paniculata) seedlings by modifying the seed coat and finding a beneficial treatment dose. Eight treatment doses and one control were used to conduct electrical conductivity determination, a…

Plasma Science and Technology template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Plasma Science and Technology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Plasma Science and Technology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IOP Publishing format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Plasma Science and Technology use?
Plasma Science and Technology uses Numbered (IOP) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically.
