Abstract: | Cold atmospheric plasma activated water (PAW) was produced at various Reactive Nitrogen Oxygen Species (RONS) concentrations. PAW was characterized and in vivo toxicological studies were conducted, using the zebrafish embryo acute toxicity test (OECD 236). Danio rerio (zebrafish), were raised in standard egg PAW of various RONS concentrations and their lethality was monitored. The thresholds for no lethality and simultaneously no obvious morphological phenotypes were determined as approximately 30 mg/L H2O2 concentration, while for NO3− concentration, the values were also correlated to the pH of the solution used. The pH-value of 3.85 was also a measurable threshold for the lethality of the embryos. Toxic and non-toxic PAW were used as medium to assess their inhibitory potential for Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecium. The results indicated that PAW delayed the recovery time or even resulted in no growth of these microorganisms compared to control samples. |
