NOTE: Each of the control plates did have thousands of little colonies on them. Every tiny white dot is a colony, not just the larger white circles. The overall growth was less than I would have hoped, but the growth experiment still yielded interesting results!
The thing I found fascinating was that not only did the cold plasma treated area not have growth, but the fact that the effect persisted after treatment. I was expecting the growth on the outer edges to impinge on the treatment zone since the entire plate wasn't treated.
It's interesting how it can kill viral entities at the very core. Wonder if you could heavily hydrate someone, put them in a hot room like a dry sauna, and make a sort of wide brush of this cold plasma to kill a virus that would spread by touch and pushed out through sweat and oils.
as a diabetic with the typical diabetic ulsers which will likely end up with the loss of one or both of my feet, I wish the VA hospital (disabled Veteran) had the ability to use or even issue cold plasma wands. I have had one Ulser that is nearly 10 months old and not healing. the cold gas plasma wand may be able to change the future (length) of my legs, but medical progress is always slow (and likely too slow in my case)
Thanks James, really appreciate your help on understanding it. I felt a bit silly asking how you'd done the cold flame, because I realized you already explained it perfectly in your cold flame video. Regardless, appreciate your help.
It does. He's completely overlooked the idea that ozone is what the "active ingredient" is here... the helium is pointless. The oxygen in both the tank (yes, the helium tank) and the air, are supplying what's necessary to make ozone, a potent disinfectant.

@@tonyromano8337 well the very first step in order to allow healing of a wound instead of it being a warzone between your white blood cells and w.e invaders that came from the object that caused the wound in the first place(or contact with the air, ground, or water that isn't salt water), is to sterilize the wound, otherwise no healing takes place, because the cells in charge of doing that would constantly be under attack by foreign bacteria or fungus or w.e else. So wound needs to be sterile as much as possible, at least to a degree that your own immune system(depends on how strong it is) can handle w.e spots you missed. So since this can be used to sterilize, then yes, in a sense this helps heal wounds. But no this doesn't regenerate cells, the only thing I know that does that is stem cells. There are patches of stem cells that are researched, and this foam like thing that you just pour all over an open wound and it will create a biome to protect and heal and connect everything back together where it can and close the wounds where it cannot, based on stem cells as well. But last I checked on that foam thing, which the primary use or intended target is for the military, it was years ago, I do not know where they are at now in their progress.

Very cool that they're actually using/testing these wands. I would think this would be a game changer for minimizing or eliminating scarring and perhaps also help alleviate shock due to trauma, by quickly inducing the healing process vs the 36 to 48 hours after trauma on average for healing to begin.
the lag time is due to the body/mind's response to trauma's shock. cells and systems need to 'reset' - adjust to the environment, and reorient. probably ought to let nature do her part a bit as well. and all vitals need to be seen to and any problems ascertained ASAP.
I want to build a nitrogen based cold plasma so found your channel. I was first introduced to this in the mid 1990's when my team was trying to create some oxidizing radicals for reduction of certain compounds in diesel exhaust - after treatment of you will. Some VP stepped on our project because he did did not support development of what he called high school science experiments. Well, one scientist suggested a cold plasma to generate the desired radicals and showed us something similar to your device. it was 1/4" OD teflon tubing and at Tee fitting where the gas was introduced to the wire and the HF power supply. A simple little device where, like yours, the wire fell short of the outlet. We used nitrogen for the feed gas which nicely made and not too sensitive to the construction. Like all very cool science demonstrations, I suppose the novelty eventually turns into some outstanding device for improvement of life for all. Thanks for taking the extra time to show what a cold plasma might be useful for, that was the real effort in your work!!! BTW my team did finish some work and launched the first diesel oxidation catalyst in 1996. That VP destroyed my career.
Neat! I managed to get similar results with argon (much cheaper than helium) but it required a small array of needles rather than a single wire as in yours. I didn't check its ability to kill microbes, but there's little reason to think it wouldn't. IIRC it manages to degrade biofilms and rupture non-eukaryotic cell walls (bacteria) while leaving animal cells unscathed.
i’d guess the big difference between bacteria and animal cells here is the bacteria are on their own to some extent, while the animal cells are agglomerated and that reduced surface area lowers the depth that reactive oxygen gets to because dead cells then function as armor. however i could be wrong and animal cells are more resistant
@@morgan0 Not so much re:population density. Bacteria form dense colonies within biofilms but have vulnerable, simpler cell membranes compared to animals (broadly speaking), which are easily broached if the biofilm can be removed or rendered permeable, but the latter is no easy task. Traditionally speaking, from a medical perspective, mechanical abrasion (i.e. scrubbing) is the last/best defense against bacterial biofilms, rendering treatment of large-area burns an excruciating experience.
So this is what the 1920’s violet ray was trying to achieve. The violet ray is an antique medical appliance used during the early 20th century to discharge in electrotherapy. Their construction usually featured a disruptive discharge coil with an interrupter to apply a high voltage, high frequency, low current to the human body for therapeutic purposes.
Nah. The violet ray was more about thermal effects. You could get 'tools' with which you could burn away moles and warts. Spread the power over a larger area, and you'd just get a little tingle (insinuating that it's doing Healthy Things to your nerves) or a warming effect due to the RF heating.
Royal Rife had done some experiments with light and frequency and curing cancer. He also invented the "Universal microscope". Maybe there are some similarities.
@@korntageous Yea, and the put him in prison for it. Now there is a Ted talk about shattering cancer with frequencies. The medical field is just starting to open up to the ideas Rife had 100 years ago. Maybe in another 100 years we will put it into common practice.
Now we just need a way to electrically separate hydrogen from water then fuse it to helium for a constant source of helium! I'm sure you can come up with something Jay. (This is a joke but I do think its a cool thought experiment)
Yeah I’m pretty sure you can build a fusor for that. And to get hydrogen out of water, all you have to do is stick some electrode it and build something to separate the two gases from the two electrodes. Sadly though, fusor are pretty hard to build, he’s an awesome guy but I don’t think Jay is up for it yet
Thanks for another great video Jay, these are always a pleasure to watch! I'm surprised how well your Slayer Exciter worked for this when ran on helium; I've never seen such a stark contrast of gas ionizability.
Thanks Zach! Dude I really need to get back to you. Let me do it here: Yeah, totally down for the SSTC build. I'm planning it for an upcoming video. Will definitely credit you and share the glory!
@@PlasmaChannel That's great! I sent an email with a few details I want to iron out (like where I send the PCBs to), if you could respond to that, that'd be great!
I work at a hospital as an electrician. In our Engineering Department we have to provide Medical Grade Helium to the Surgery Department. This would be neat if they use helium in this regard as well. I've heard they also use helium to pump organs needed with gas for inflation as well. Cool stuff. Helium tanks also have different output threads as well. Helium tanks in the gift shop and helium tanks in the surgery department have different threads. One is female and the other is male. Makes sense. Great video. God bless 🙏

Use fungus on your plates the useful application I can see is using it for surface sterilization. Rather than cultivating the stuff we want to avoid sterilization using mushroom mycelium. You can place mycelium culture on the plates. The easiest method is to use liquid culture made with water and clear corn syrup or glucose that is used to make clear frosting. You can boil or PC the liquid substrate and use multi-spire syringe or you can buy liquid culture syringes if you want to waste money. Mushroom mycelium is strong when established but cannot compete with other microorganisms before it is fully colonized. This will give you an idea of where you sterilized the substrate surface of the PDA or MDE.
I used one of those when doing my bachelor thesis on fiberoptics. We used a plasma pen to activate the surface of the optical fibers so we could print lenses and stuff like that ontop of them. Without the plasma treatment it wouldnt stick to the surface as well.
Also I think using smaller spiky electrodes might allow you to control the output if you can shape them just right over a thicker wire. Plus, maybe some valves in the wand base and opening to control flow. I'm really over thinking this lol.
apparently they exist www.etsy.com/listing/807877942, if you used that and a small high voltage supply you could make a really cool portable sterilizing pen!
Clear back in the late 1970s they were having success with electrical stimulation growing back finger tips. I also remember a gadget you could shock with a plasma\lightning bolt a cold sore and it would heal faster. As early as the 1800s they were doing electrostatic health treatments to people and experimenting with electro horticulture. Electricity is just neverendingly interesting...
Really interesting video. I'm going to suggest you do a minor cut or abrasion injury on each of your arms in the same location(or possibly on one arm a suitable distance apart) and treat one with cold plasma while leaving the other to heal on its own. Take a picture every 8 hours to record the progress. Could be very interesting!
Hey M M, great input. I considered doing that, but figured that it might come across as "not advertiser friendly" if I admitted to cutting my arms on the video. But, that was the plan, do a real world test.
@@PlasmaChannel Yeah, hard to say. I think that if you avoided showing the creation of the injury itself and just the aftermath you would likely be fine. Could even use sandpaper and rub it a certain amount of times with the same pressure to ensure a consistent result. Wouldn't be as visually disturbing as actual cutting and when viewed under magnification still very interesting. Just a good opportunity to do something "first". Have a good weekend!
I was just messing around and looking up Plasma physics content on UA-cam to see what people know about this field and this video was the first to pop up in my search feed. I found it extremely interesting to see what you managed to achieve with a homemade device like this one. I myself am a researcher in Plasma physics in Switzerland and I’ve been working on the topic of plasma disinfection for about 6 months now going from a HV DC plasma to a 30 kHz DBD and currently a 13.56 MHz RF plasma. Trials on E. Coli and S. Epidermidis showed how powerful and efficient plasmas can be in fighting against microbial infections. The next big step is HAI and I’m looking for a certified partner to carry out the disinfection tests on multi-drug resistant bacteria. Sorry I got carried away! But anyway, great content on a very important topic, especially during the tough times we’re going through! Love and respect from Switzerland!
You may use the small circuit boards in plasma globes, they are small and have a output of about 2000V, you may increase the voltage also according to your needs. It will make your wand battery powered and portable
I would love to see this used on pediatric patients for more invasive lacerations, breaks my heart having to sterilize wounds using stuff like alcohol so seeing this standardized would be amazing. Thanks for the video, learned a lot.
Nice experiment with cold plasma. As for decontamination, wounds, blisters or burns with liquid nitrogen when removing warts or burns with hot objects or liquids. I use a simple, thin slice of half or a third of a clove of garlic, which I change morning and night, and within three days the wound is usually dry and well on its way to healing. There are no red areas that indicate inflammation, the skin is moist and white, and the wound heals incredibly quickly.
I love high voltage projects, and I've been playing around with them most of my adult life (I'm currently 74). For the past few years I have been experimenting with exploding bridge wires (look it up). But, I don't use bare wire like most people have done in the past, but rather I use thin insulated wire. I place a white card under or next to the wire, then dump a 100uF at 4KV capacitor across it using a triggered spark gap. The sound it makes is like a large firecracker or gunshot. But the most interesting thing is the weird patterns it creates on the white card, which is from smoke and vaporized wire. Let me know if you want more details on this fascinating project.
@@stevenheiser6888 -- NEVER, NEVER, NEVER grab anything or any two things with both hands. ALWAYS grab things with one hand at a time, even when you are certain the power is turned off. The reason is if you get shocked through one hand, it will hurt like hell and will potentially destroy your hand, depending on many variables. But if you get shocked through both hands, electricity might take a path through your body and across your heart. Need I say what the result might be? If you learn nothing else, please learn this before you decide to play with high voltage equipment.
Interesting that the effect is so specific for the area that it touches, but it makes sense. Heat would radiate out, which wouldn't happen with cold plasma. Useful if you don't want to disturb the natural flora of the skin around an injury while sterilizing the wound.
What an awesome design! Looks great and it's made with affordable or easily obtainable materials *and* it's beneficial to our health!? Can't get much better than that...I would like to make one now to try on wounds. I imagine that it would work really well on disinfecting infected wounds too. If so, then we know the cold plasma would work wonders with acne or any other minor skin infections.
Yes, I do like what you developed and like to see more. This is probably one of the key technologies for the close future - lets say next 10 - 15 years. Let me guess the disadvantages I can think of: 1. There is no housing which sucks air in with zero velocity and mix it with already accelerated air. Furthermore accelerated air will exit the main "power" stream. 2. through the design much acceleration will be created but the aerodynamics isn't good so efficiency will decrease. 3. Though the thick ground tubes even more swirls influence the efficiency even more. I would use wires too, instead. 4. Probably two stages are as efficient as the tree. Though I would reduce the ioniser to save energy and weight. What else do I recommend: 1. support laminar flow right from the beginning and through the housing 2. using the "Dyson fan effect" which sucks up to 15 times more air with the generated air stream, which is used for aviation of electrical aircraft engines under development.
So cool to see my PhD subject inside a UA-cam video as yours ! Hope you will try a dielectric barrier discharge torch soon (way safer and in my sense even cooler). If you need more scientific explanation just ask.
Hmm, I wonder what other applications this could have? Maybe some sort of plasma-lithography art? Rapid glue hardener? Hair removal? Plasma tooth brush? Could it change the taste of food? Does it cause certain chemicals to change color? Could it be used to precisely spot-measure a material's oxygen sensitivity? How much further would it extend if you implemented a laminar flow nozzle? What if it is used with helium mixtures containing other gasses? There are so many possibilities!
From other comments I read, it sounds like different gas mixtures require different electrode densities, voltage adjustments, or both. I think it's possible to print electrodes on acrylic and switch how many turn on or off. To find out, I'd check to see if anyone has made a circuit printer that accepts an acrylic substrate. Otherwise an acrylic glue mixed with the right density and homogenous mix of conductive particles applied to a mask may work for nice lines. Those recipes for conductive ink made compatible for acrylic would be nice.
@garyrich2000 I have to say that your suggestion is actually valid, raises relevant and interesting points, and builds upon the topic of the video and also in line with the comments and/or questions in the thread, to the point where I forgot my own, and found myself saying, "Hey that's sounds like a possible . . . Yeah! What he said!? Somebody do it!!" Lol
@@tomconner5067 I just watched this video again and I noticed him saying helium was selected because it is easily conducts over other glasses. So I wonder what happens if Ionized air is fed into the pipette?
Would you consider producing a how-to-make video on this device? I'm getting older and wound don't heal as quickly they used to. I'd love to have one of these at home.
Yes, please do a build with the power source on board. Love the video bud, you're a smart man with an intelligent knowledge base and have an informational delivery capacity to better elaborate on things to where the result, I find, is much more in need in this world. Thank you for the interesting video and you did a great job explaining things better than most. It is nice to see and therefore, making subjects more understandable. Makes the world more of smarter place hypothetically because the results would show "wisdom is love and intelligence" yet it needs to be learned. "None the wiser" is a saying but none the wiser could also mean "never learned" as well as "unwilling to learn" but that would bring up a whole other hypothetical topic such as knowing and not yearning for better. 😏 Keep it up brother. ✊👍📊🎯📈
That's a cool piece of science though. Imagine a cold plasma wand, but in the shape of a brush. So several nozzles in a line, so you can brush it over a larger surface area
Damn you beat me to it and i am glad you did. I was going to try heated salts vapour in a tube and see what happens as well. Maybe that might be something your interested in . I hear borax works well too.
I don't believe the helium gives up the radical oxygen atom during the plasma generation, since it's only changing the state of the matter not it's molecular composition. Just my hypothesis, and I'm basing this on part of a single lesson during a fraction of one day in my public school eucation 35+ years ago, when all I had on my mind were girls, music, wrestling, girls muscle cars, and girls. So look into it and let me know if that brain cell is still glitch free or if I need to clear the cache, I slept the whole time every day during that class and still managed an A on the midterm and final exams. No I didn't cheat, my mind somehow retains things I hear when Im asleep! True story.
In my experience, door handles* are perfect things to swab to get a variety of strong bacteria. As you learned, hands aren't great sources for getting bacteria, as they're washed regularly.
I created a design to help reduce the helium from escaping around both the tube and wire entry points. This is an older video, so bringing my design up would be pointless. Same design, but a bit more refined. I think most of the video was you joking around with the audience by creating crazy applications to create a cold plasma design.
Cool! A question, though: is there any benefit to the sterilization here versus the ozone sterilization you demonstrated before? "Reactive oxygen species" sounds like ozone to me, but I'm not fluent in chemistry. Is there a difference?
Hi Nathaniel, ozone is a massive component to the "reactive species", however, ozone does not account for the reactive nitrogen species component. You can have ionized oxygen not form into Ozone as well.
Cold plasma only adds an electron to the gas molecules, so instead of splitting oxygen O2 into ozone O3 it creates anions O2-, N2-, H2O-, He- and so on. The ozone is poisonous and the room should be aired after disinfecting with it. But these anions are harmless and they are actually found naturally in fresh air. There are home ionizers available that can make them without visible cold plasma and no need for helium. I am using one at home and it helps with my pollen allergy as the electrical charge pulls dust down (ozone won't do that because it's electrically neutral).
It's a common misconception that ozone is toxic; while it is a potent oxidizer, which means that it can break down cells, it would take a ponderous amount of ozone over many, many half lives to cause a healthy person harm. It's great for cleaning air, though!
Sure, but if I had a dollar for every study with weak conclusions... Ehh, you see where this is going. As always, be aware of your individual tolerances, but as for me and my familiars, we've never seen ill effects from the so-called dangerous levels of ozone put off by commercial ozone generators, even after hours of exposure. I can't speak for those who have had issues, but I do suggest that there's more to be understood about it than the usual alarm bells would have us assume.
@@PlasmaChannel "In addition to being rare, helium is (mostly) not a renewable resource. The helium that we have was produced by the radioactive decay of rock, long ago. Over the span of hundreds of millions of years, the gas accumulated and was released by tectonic plate movement, where it found its way into natural gas deposits and as a dissolved gas in groundwater. Once the gas leaks into the atmosphere, it is light enough to escape the Earth's gravitational field so it bleeds off into space, never to return. We may run out of helium within 25-30 years because it's being consumed so freely. " As far as I know we can't produce enough to cover demand...
What you should have done was swab a surface, let it grow out, and then use a colony to swab a fresh agar plate. In microbiology, that’s what’s done to measure zone of inhibition for various antibacterials which are soaked onto little round pieces of paper
The danger with oxidation is if it can oxidize compounds in microorganisms, it can also do it in your own cells, producing reactive oxygen species or free radicals, which now the body's antioxidants have to deactivate.
This is amazing. I would totally build one of these right now if i had the helium. Also, those mystery blotches on the last plate are fungal colonies - a couple of airborne spores probably landed in the dish and grew.
I have seen the future and it is a beautiful thing. This is especially true when it comes to the potential healing properties of cold plasma. I first encountered this technology while attending a medical conference in Las Vegas a few years ago. A small company called Quark Enterprises was demonstrating their new product, the "Cold Plasma Wand." It is a handheld device that emits a stream of cold plasma. I was skeptical at first, but after watching them use it to heal a deep cut on someone's hand, I was sold. Since then, Quark has continued to develop their technology and has now unveiled their latest creation, the "Powered Tesla Coil." This device not only emits cold plasma, but also generates an electrical field that amplifies the healing properties of the plasma.
Ages ago, my dad had an air purifier that had a tiny little itty bitty ionizer wand similar to this, though without the need for helium. I would use it to charge up "batteries" made out of tiny little containers of water that had an inserted paper clip. My school friends and I would shock each other in school for fun. Good times.
Hypochlorus Acid (HOCl) is a fantastic sterilizer. It is also created in our bodies to fight infection. It's very inexpensive to make at home; distilled water, distilled vinegar and a bit of kosher salt. This mixture is then electrolized. I know this is the plasma channel, but HOCl is very transportable and very safe.
I work in this field and love your design specially connecting to Tesla coil… interesting… it’s really good DIY and very informative… fantastic project for students…
So amazingly cool . I'm sure that I had seen something like that years ago,. I have a feeling that my nan had a similar device which would probably have been 1920s or earlier. There was a lot of cool unconventional things in my family closets.
I really enjoyed this video. I don't even care if the results weren't as good as you anticipated (visually underwhelming as you referred to it), I just enjoying watching stuff being built like this.
NOTE: Each of the control plates did have thousands of little colonies on them. Every tiny white dot is a colony, not just the larger white circles. The overall growth was less than I would have hoped, but the growth experiment still yielded interesting results!
But how is it cold???
Am more than thrilled and impressed with your inventions of using plasma, am wonder here is it possible to treat cancer cells with cold plasma?
The thing I found fascinating was that not only did the cold plasma treated area not have growth, but the fact that the effect persisted after treatment. I was expecting the growth on the outer edges to impinge on the treatment zone since the entire plate wasn't treated.
It's interesting how it can kill viral entities at the very core. Wonder if you could heavily hydrate someone, put them in a hot room like a dry sauna, and make a sort of wide brush of this cold plasma to kill a virus that would spread by touch and pushed out through sweat and oils.

Bacteria form dense colonies within biofilms but have vulnerable, simpler cell membranes compared to animals (broadly speaking), which are easily broached if the biofilm can be removed or rendered permeable, but the latter is no easy task. Traditionally speaking, from a medical perspective, mechanical abrasion (i.e. scrubbing) is the last/best defense against bacterial biofilms, rendering treatment of large-area burns an excruciating experience.
Absolutely insane! Loved the concept and Im impressed of the results of the usage of cold plasma to heal wounds
1:20 "its practically touchable"
*touches it*
pretty sure it's definitely touchable :D
So this is what the 1920’s violet ray was trying to achieve.
The violet ray is an antique medical appliance used during the early 20th century to discharge in electrotherapy. Their construction usually featured a disruptive discharge coil with an interrupter to apply a high voltage, high frequency, low current to the human body for therapeutic purposes.
these days the violet ray is used for sexytimes
@@JinKee The world is ready to destruction.
Nah. The violet ray was more about thermal effects. You could get 'tools' with which you could burn away moles and warts. Spread the power over a larger area, and you'd just get a little tingle (insinuating that it's doing Healthy Things to your nerves) or a warming effect due to the RF heating.
Royal Rife had done some experiments with light and frequency and curing cancer. He also invented the "Universal microscope". Maybe there are some similarities.
@@korntageous Yea, and the put him in prison for it. Now there is a Ted talk about shattering cancer with frequencies. The medical field is just starting to open up to the ideas Rife had 100 years ago. Maybe in another 100 years we will put it into common practice.
Playing with Plasma is the best hobby in the universe .
Oh it's not possible in your universe ... actually Dark Matter is more precisely the best hobby out here , it can give you Avatar like abilities too .
Now we just need a way to electrically separate hydrogen from water then fuse it to helium for a constant source of helium! I'm sure you can come up with something Jay. (This is a joke but I do think its a cool thought experiment)
Lol u could use electrolysis and then pump it into the sun
Yeah I’m pretty sure you can build a fusor for that. And to get hydrogen out of water, all you have to do is stick some electrode it and build something to separate the two gases from the two electrodes. Sadly though, fusor are pretty hard to build, he’s an awesome guy but I don’t think Jay is up for it yet
I'm guessing you want him to make an inline Farnsworth fuser? Would be cool.
@@Justin-dv7ul Big emphasis on yet, one day he could potentially be capable of who knows what futuristic tech.
Enamel Bucket yeah I know, I mean maybe not like the next video
man its pretty amazing how cheap this actually costs to build, shows amazing promise to the medical community
I gotta say I really like your dedication to clear acrylics. It makes the project so easy to see it all and looks a bit scifi if you ask me.
I'm curious to see what varying the voltage and frequency would do. A portable version would be neat. Beautiful video. As always Stay classy.
agree
I'm really into pharmokinetics and medicine in general and was really impressive by this, hopefully we see more of this in the near future!
Thanks for another great video Jay, these are always a pleasure to watch! I'm surprised how well your Slayer Exciter worked for this when ran on helium; I've never seen such a stark contrast of gas ionizability.
LabCoatz!!! Did Jay ever get back to your email?? He said he would in the livestream, and that was a week ago...
Thanks Zach! Dude I really need to get back to you. Let me do it here: Yeah, totally down for the SSTC build. I'm planning it for an upcoming video. Will definitely credit you and share the glory!
@@PlasmaChannel That's great! I sent an email with a few details I want to iron out (like where I send the PCBs to), if you could respond to that, that'd be great!
YES!!! It's HAPPENING!!! Best...collab...EVER!
I work at a hospital as an electrician. In our Engineering Department we have to provide Medical Grade Helium to the Surgery Department. This would be neat if they use helium in this regard as well. I've heard they also use helium to pump organs needed with gas for inflation as well. Cool stuff. Helium tanks also have different output threads as well. Helium tanks in the gift shop and helium tanks in the surgery department have different threads. One is female and the other is male. Makes sense. Great video. God bless 🙏

Use fungus on your plates the useful application I can see is using it for surface sterilization. Rather than cultivating the stuff we want to avoid sterilization using mushroom mycelium. You can place mycelium culture on the plates. The easiest method is to use liquid culture made with water and clear corn syrup or glucose that is used to make clear frosting. You can boil or PC the liquid substrate and use multi-spire syringe or you can buy liquid culture syringes if you want to waste money. Mushroom mycelium is strong when established but cannot compete with other microorganisms before it is fully colonized. This will give you an idea of where you sterilized the substrate surface of the PDA or MDE.
Thanks for the input. Yeah, I had trouble with my growth
I used one of those when doing my bachelor thesis on fiberoptics. We used a plasma pen to activate the surface of the optical fibers so we could print lenses and stuff like that ontop of them. Without the plasma treatment it wouldnt stick to the surface as well.
Thats interesting I'm guessing the lenses stick to an oxidative layer and the plasma does the oxidizing I've never thought of that
use an onboard power supply and one of those high pressure co2 cartridges filled with helium to make it fully portable
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. CO2 cartridge with Helium?? You have my attention.
Also I think using smaller spiky electrodes might allow you to control the output if you can shape them just right over a thicker wire. Plus, maybe some valves in the wand base and opening to control flow. I'm really over thinking this lol.
@@ladyattis Ion generators use graphite fibers that have thousands of tiny points to allow high corona currents at lower power.
@@PlasmaChannel now build it
apparently they exist www.etsy.com/listing/807877942, if you used that and a small high voltage supply you could make a really cool portable sterilizing pen!
Clear back in the late 1970s they were having success with electrical stimulation growing back finger tips. I also remember a gadget you could shock with a plasma\lightning bolt a cold sore and it would heal faster. As early as the 1800s they were doing electrostatic health treatments to people and experimenting with electro horticulture. Electricity is just neverendingly interesting...
Thank you!!! Truly amazing content. I wish all content was as interesting and informative as this was. Amazing work.
Really interesting video. I'm going to suggest you do a minor cut or abrasion injury on each of your arms in the same location(or possibly on one arm a suitable distance apart) and treat one with cold plasma while leaving the other to heal on its own. Take a picture every 8 hours to record the progress. Could be very interesting!
Hey M M, great input. I considered doing that, but figured that it might come across as "not advertiser friendly" if I admitted to cutting my arms on the video. But, that was the plan, do a real world test.
@@PlasmaChannel Yeah, hard to say. I think that if you avoided showing the creation of the injury itself and just the aftermath you would likely be fine. Could even use sandpaper and rub it a certain amount of times with the same pressure to ensure a consistent result. Wouldn't be as visually disturbing as actual cutting and when viewed under magnification still very interesting. Just a good opportunity to do something "first". Have a good weekend!
@@PlasmaChannel well maybe in the future if you accidentally get a cut, you can treat half the cut with plasma and leave the other half?
@Plasmachannel then get someone with a cut already and willing to do the trial run.
So this is 100% not how excitation regeneration works lol
I was just messing around and looking up Plasma physics content on UA-cam to see what people know about this field and this video was the first to pop up in my search feed. I found it extremely interesting to see what you managed to achieve with a homemade device like this one. I myself am a researcher in Plasma physics in Switzerland and I’ve been working on the topic of plasma disinfection for about 6 months now going from a HV DC plasma to a 30 kHz DBD and currently a 13.56 MHz RF plasma. Trials on E. Coli and S. Epidermidis showed how powerful and efficient plasmas can be in fighting against microbial infections. The next big step is HAI and I’m looking for a certified partner to carry out the disinfection tests on multi-drug resistant bacteria.
Sorry I got carried away! But anyway, great content on a very important topic, especially during the tough times we’re going through!
Love and respect from Switzerland!
Hi, I am a researcher for India, Kindly provide me your email so that i can discuss about how to generate RF plasma
Hi, what is HAI exactly? High Amp Induction? As opposed to high voltage DC? Or are you speaking of something else?
You may use the small circuit boards in plasma globes, they are small and have a output of about 2000V, you may increase the voltage also according to your needs. It will make your wand battery powered and portable
I would love to see this used on pediatric patients for more invasive lacerations, breaks my heart having to sterilize wounds using stuff like alcohol so seeing this standardized would be amazing. Thanks for the video, learned a lot.
“Plasma is the fourth state of matter.”
Quantum Physics “Challenge excepted.”
That’s awesome. Great topic. You should definitely build a all in one wand.
That is a really nice build, You should make a portable wand out of that!!! Stay Classy My Friend!!! 🦆
Yes he definitely should build a power supply into the wand.
Yes. Do a portable one, please.
@@Justin-dv7ul He is talented with High Voltage and Acrylic...😁👍
This blows my mind! I want to build one. You should definitely build one with an onboard power supply. Thanks for making fun quality content.
7:28 "I don't really know what happened there but" 🤣😂 fantastic experiment this is awesome!
Nice experiment with cold plasma.
As for decontamination, wounds, blisters or burns with liquid nitrogen when removing warts or burns with hot objects or liquids.
I use a simple, thin slice of half or a third of a clove of garlic, which I change morning and night, and within three days the wound is usually dry and well on its way to healing.
There are no red areas that indicate inflammation, the skin is moist and white, and the wound heals incredibly quickly.
I love high voltage projects, and I've been playing around with them most of my adult life (I'm currently 74). For the past few years I have been experimenting with exploding bridge wires (look it up). But, I don't use bare wire like most people have done in the past, but rather I use thin insulated wire. I place a white card under or next to the wire, then dump a 100uF at 4KV capacitor across it using a triggered spark gap. The sound it makes is like a large firecracker or gunshot. But the most interesting thing is the weird patterns it creates on the white card, which is from smoke and vaporized wire. Let me know if you want more details on this fascinating project.
What wisdom would you offer someone just getting started?
@@stevenheiser6888 -- NEVER, NEVER, NEVER grab anything or any two things with both hands. ALWAYS grab things with one hand at a time, even when you are certain the power is turned off. The reason is if you get shocked through one hand, it will hurt like hell and will potentially destroy your hand, depending on many variables. But if you get shocked through both hands, electricity might take a path through your body and across your heart. Need I say what the result might be? If you learn nothing else, please learn this before you decide to play with high voltage equipment.
Now this is probably one of the most interesting things I've learned in a while. Very interesting stuff. Great video, cheers!
Thanks! Feel free to share, so that others can enjow as well
This is so cool. If they’re safe to use, everyone should own these
Interesting that the effect is so specific for the area that it touches, but it makes sense. Heat would radiate out, which wouldn't happen with cold plasma. Useful if you don't want to disturb the natural flora of the skin around an injury while sterilizing the wound.
This is fricken sick! This needs to be talked about more!
What an awesome design! Looks great and it's made with affordable or easily obtainable materials *and* it's beneficial to our health!? Can't get much better than that...I would like to make one now to try on wounds. I imagine that it would work really well on disinfecting infected wounds too. If so, then we know the cold plasma would work wonders with acne or any other minor skin infections.
There's no evidence for anything you just said/claimed. Don't slice yourself to experiment with this bogus crap. These claims are 100 years old.
This is really cool! Would love to see a build with an onboard power source.
I'd like to see this in a videogame, and if high-tech healing made up a large part of gameplay mechanics, that would probably add to the fun factor.

Medic tf2
Yes, I do like what you developed and like to see more.
This is probably one of the key technologies for the close future - lets say next 10 - 15 years.
Let me guess the disadvantages I can think of:
1. There is no housing which sucks air in with zero velocity and mix it with already accelerated air. Furthermore accelerated air will exit the main "power" stream.
2. through the design much acceleration will be created but the aerodynamics isn't good so efficiency will decrease.
3. Though the thick ground tubes even more swirls influence the efficiency even more. I would use wires too, instead.
4. Probably two stages are as efficient as the tree. Though I would reduce the ioniser to save energy and weight.
What else do I recommend:
1. support laminar flow right from the beginning and through the housing
2. using the "Dyson fan effect" which sucks up to 15 times more air with the generated air stream, which is used for aviation of electrical aircraft engines under development.
"should i build one with an onboard power source..."
dude, that ain't even a question, and you KNOW it.
So cool to see my PhD subject inside a UA-cam video as yours ! Hope you will try a dielectric barrier discharge torch soon (way safer and in my sense even cooler). If you need more scientific explanation just ask.
That’s super interesting! Can you please provide a link to your paper? Put it here so others can read it!
Sounds cool
Alas no paper
im asking....
@@PlasmaChannel thank you , much appreciated
Bio electromagnetic healing is a cool topic Jay. And yes, add a power supply such as an arc lighter and mini Helium tube for a portable design.
Hmm, I wonder what other applications this could have? Maybe some sort of plasma-lithography art? Rapid glue hardener? Hair removal? Plasma tooth brush? Could it change the taste of food? Does it cause certain chemicals to change color? Could it be used to precisely spot-measure a material's oxygen sensitivity? How much further would it extend if you implemented a laminar flow nozzle? What if it is used with helium mixtures containing other gasses? There are so many possibilities!
From other comments I read, it sounds like different gas mixtures require different electrode densities, voltage adjustments, or both.
I think it's possible to print electrodes on acrylic and switch how many turn on or off.
To find out, I'd check to see if anyone has made a circuit printer that accepts an acrylic substrate. Otherwise an acrylic glue mixed with the right density and homogenous mix of conductive particles applied to a mask may work for nice lines.
Those recipes for conductive ink made compatible for acrylic would be nice.
@garyrich2000 I have to say that your suggestion is actually valid, raises relevant and interesting points, and builds upon the topic of the video and also in line with the comments and/or questions in the thread, to the point where I forgot my own, and found myself saying, "Hey that's sounds like a possible . . . Yeah! What he said!? Somebody do it!!" Lol
@@tomconner5067 I just watched this video again and I noticed him saying helium was selected because it is easily conducts over other glasses. So I wonder what happens if Ionized air is fed into the pipette?
Damn, Jamie Lannister here introducing us to plasma torches after an... AHEM* family meeting
Videos like this are one of the main reasons that I love UA-cam!
Would you consider producing a how-to-make video on this device? I'm getting older and wound don't heal as quickly they used to. I'd love to have one of these at home.
Yes, please do a build with the power source on board. Love the video bud, you're a smart man with an intelligent knowledge base and have an informational delivery capacity to better elaborate on things to where the result, I find, is much more in need in this world. Thank you for the interesting video and you did a great job explaining things better than most. It is nice to see and therefore, making subjects more understandable. Makes the world more of smarter place hypothetically because the results would show "wisdom is love and intelligence" yet it needs to be learned. "None the wiser" is a saying but none the wiser could also mean "never learned" as well as "unwilling to learn" but that would bring up a whole other hypothetical topic such as knowing and not yearning for better. 😏 Keep it up brother. ✊👍📊🎯📈
Maybe I missed it, is helium the only input gas that can be used? (I thought that stuff was becoming scarce?
That's a cool piece of science though. Imagine a cold plasma wand, but in the shape of a brush. So several nozzles in a line, so you can brush it over a larger surface area
You seem to have everything you need to build one with a on board power supply. You should do it. 👍🏻
Damn you beat me to it and i am glad you did. I was going to try heated salts vapour in a tube and see what happens as well. Maybe that might be something your interested in . I hear borax works well too.
I think an onboard voltage source would be cool. But can you also do an onboard gas source for a fully portable plasma wand?
That’s beautifully awesome! I wonder what role ozone plays in these experiments. It’s certainly a byproduct of plasma.
Ozone disinfects. But mixed with air and breathing creates harmful compounds.
I don't believe the helium gives up the radical oxygen atom during the plasma generation, since it's only changing the state of the matter not it's molecular composition. Just my hypothesis, and I'm basing this on part of a single lesson during a fraction of one day in my public school eucation 35+ years ago, when all I had on my mind were girls, music, wrestling, girls muscle cars, and girls. So look into it and let me know if that brain cell is still glitch free or if I need to clear the cache, I slept the whole time every day during that class and still managed an A on the midterm and final exams. No I didn't cheat, my mind somehow retains things I hear when Im asleep! True story.
@N Esq that O atom wants to attach to another atom in the worst way!
@@tomconner5067 HAHAHA!! 🤘🤣🤘
@@tomconner5067 for sure
In my experience, door handles* are perfect things to swab to get a variety of strong bacteria.
As you learned, hands aren't great sources for getting bacteria, as they're washed regularly.
I created a design to help reduce the helium from escaping around both the tube and wire entry points. This is an older video, so bringing my design up would be pointless. Same design, but a bit more refined.
I think most of the video was you joking around with the audience by creating crazy applications to create a cold plasma design.
Great build, what if you use air, oxygen, argon, co2 or hydrogen instead of helium?
And yes, please make it portable
Argon is the next most used gas.
@@PlasmaChannel Would argon be better to use? I mean it is cheaper and can't escape as easily
what frequency did you eventually use for the pancake generator? (if you're taking a poll, I'd vote "YES" for the hand-held cold plasma wand 😁)
Atmospheric cold plasma with air would be great!
Cool! A question, though: is there any benefit to the sterilization here versus the ozone sterilization you demonstrated before?
"Reactive oxygen species" sounds like ozone to me, but I'm not fluent in chemistry. Is there a difference?
Hi Nathaniel, ozone is a massive component to the "reactive species", however, ozone does not account for the reactive nitrogen species component. You can have ionized oxygen not form into Ozone as well.
Cold plasma only adds an electron to the gas molecules, so instead of splitting oxygen O2 into ozone O3 it creates anions O2-, N2-, H2O-, He- and so on. The ozone is poisonous and the room should be aired after disinfecting with it. But these anions are harmless and they are actually found naturally in fresh air. There are home ionizers available that can make them without visible cold plasma and no need for helium. I am using one at home and it helps with my pollen allergy as the electrical charge pulls dust down (ozone won't do that because it's electrically neutral).
It's a common misconception that ozone is toxic; while it is a potent oxidizer, which means that it can break down cells, it would take a ponderous amount of ozone over many, many half lives to cause a healthy person harm. It's great for cleaning air, though!
@@NathanielHourt there's plenty of cases and research of serious acute poisoning from ozone concentration over 1ppm. Which isn't "ponderous" at all.
Sure, but if I had a dollar for every study with weak conclusions... Ehh, you see where this is going.
As always, be aware of your individual tolerances, but as for me and my familiars, we've never seen ill effects from the so-called dangerous levels of ozone put off by commercial ozone generators, even after hours of exposure. I can't speak for those who have had issues, but I do suggest that there's more to be understood about it than the usual alarm bells would have us assume.
Imagine creating a lightsaber that repelled eachother but passed through a person everyone could have the most epic light saber battles
That was so freaking cool. Cold plasma. That's freaking neat.

Shit that's unfeasible... helium is just too rare and non-renewable to be used like this especially like this.
Well, helium is totally renewable, it just takes a lot of electricity.
@@PlasmaChannel "In addition to being rare, helium is (mostly) not a renewable resource. The helium that we have was produced by the radioactive decay of rock, long ago. Over the span of hundreds of millions of years, the gas accumulated and was released by tectonic plate movement, where it found its way into natural gas deposits and as a dissolved gas in groundwater. Once the gas leaks into the atmosphere, it is light enough to escape the Earth's gravitational field so it bleeds off into space, never to return. We may run out of helium within 25-30 years because it's being consumed so freely. "
As far as I know we can't produce enough to cover demand...
@@Fuxy22 lol
To an isrealite this flame is more priceless than gold
What you should have done was swab a surface, let it grow out, and then use a colony to swab a fresh agar plate. In microbiology, that’s what’s done to measure zone of inhibition for various antibacterials which are soaked onto little round pieces of paper
yes you definatly should make this with an onboard power source
The danger with oxidation is if it can oxidize compounds in microorganisms, it can also do it in your own cells, producing reactive oxygen species or free radicals, which now the body's antioxidants have to deactivate.
This is amazing. I would totally build one of these right now if i had the helium. Also, those mystery blotches on the last plate are fungal colonies - a couple of airborne spores probably landed in the dish and grew.
Plasma wands for healing wounds sounds like something straight out of Star Trek.
I have seen the future and it is a beautiful thing. This is especially true when it comes to the potential healing properties of cold plasma. I first encountered this technology while attending a medical conference in Las Vegas a few years ago. A small company called Quark Enterprises was demonstrating their new product, the "Cold Plasma Wand." It is a handheld device that emits a stream of cold plasma. I was skeptical at first, but after watching them use it to heal a deep cut on someone's hand, I was sold.
Since then, Quark has continued to develop their technology and has now unveiled their latest creation, the "Powered Tesla Coil." This device not only emits cold plasma, but also generates an electrical field that amplifies the healing properties of the plasma.
This is definitely the coolest type of plasma
oh, nice! especially when achievable at home. the failures shown only add value as they advise of not to do. thanks for exploring it for us
This would be excellent to possibly treat diabetic wounds! Very interesting!!! TY!!!
That was cool. And this is Star Trek medical in its infancy. I love this part of science ❤❤❤
nice job. id liek to see you test the conductivity of the cold plasma along its direction of flow.
Ages ago, my dad had an air purifier that had a tiny little itty bitty ionizer wand similar to this, though without the need for helium. I would use it to charge up "batteries" made out of tiny little containers of water that had an inserted paper clip. My school friends and I would shock each other in school for fun. Good times.
Can you send a link of the device?
Makes me so glad I bought my Plasma Lamp💙
If it's safe, it's up to the discussion: basically it is oxiding the whole area, damaging lipid membrane or releasing unpredictable toxic agents
Microbiologist here, that last really big thing was a fungus
The biceps are visually overwhelming 🤗
Hypochlorus Acid (HOCl) is a fantastic sterilizer. It is also created in our bodies to fight infection. It's very inexpensive to make at home; distilled water, distilled vinegar and a bit of kosher salt. This mixture is then electrolized. I know this is the plasma channel, but HOCl is very transportable and very safe.
Now the healers beam healing in Overwatch makes more sense!, Good video.
I work in this field and love your design specially connecting to Tesla coil… interesting… it’s really good DIY and very informative… fantastic project for students…

So amazingly cool .
I'm sure that I had seen something like that years ago,.
I have a feeling that my nan had a similar device which would probably have been 1920s or earlier.
There was a lot of cool unconventional things in my family closets.
I really enjoyed this video. I don't even care if the results weren't as good as you anticipated (visually underwhelming as you referred to it), I just enjoying watching stuff being built like this.
