What is Cold Plasma ?

Plasma is the fourth state of matter after solids, liquids, and gases. Examples of plasma in nature are the sun – a gigantic plasma ball – or lightning on Earth – temporary electrical discharge. Cold plasma is maintained at temperatures below 40°C, which unlike hot plasma enables it to be applied to living organisms.

Cold plasma is generated by applying energy to a gas, which makes the gas molecules or atoms lose their outer electrons and become ionized. It is comprised of a reactive mix of electrons, ions, excited atoms, and molecules – reactive species (e.g. O3, NO, NO2, etc.), UV radiation, and heat, with wide potential medical application.Cold plasma is generated by applying energy to a gas, which makes the gas molecules or atoms lose their outer electrons and become ionized.

What is PAM ?

PAM (Plasma Activated Medium) – transfers the reactive species disinfection and therapeutic effects of the plasma to an intermediate medium (liquid or gel). The medium can then be applied in a simple and safe manner and deliver the reactive species over a long period of time (days vs. miliseconds in direct plasma), creating a long lasting effect.
The main benefits:
– Slow release of reactive species (48-72 hours vs. milli-seconds in direct plasma)
– Ideal in situations where direct plasma is not possible (otitis externa for example)
– Multiple delivery carriers: liquid, hydrogel, foam
– Temperature controlled activation options

Is Cold Plasma treatment safe for pets?

Yes, cold plasma treatment is considered safe for pets when administered by trained professionals. The technology is non-invasive and typically does not cause discomfort. It works by treating infections and promoting natural healing processes without introducing harmful substances.such as antibiotics or steroids.

How does Cold Plasma fit into the One Health approach?

Cold Plasma supports the One Health approach by providing an antibiotic-free solution that contributes to the reduction of antimicrobial resistance, benefiting both animal and human health.

How does Cold Plasma work?

Cold Plasma technology generates a plasma beam that simultaneously provides multiple effects, including disinfection, improved micro-circulation, wound healing, and tissue regeneration. It is a non-invasive, antibiotic-free solution that activates platelets and promotes natural healing processes.

How prevalent is Otitis Externa in dogs

Otitis externa is a commonly diagnosed disorder in dogs and can carry a high welfare impact on affected animals. It is the second most common infection in canines, with a prevalence of 5% to 20% in cold countries and up to 40% (!) in tropical countries.
