Abstract
The article presents an apparatus for generating an air plasma jet "ALOE". The device differs from known analogues in its compactness achieved due to absence of need to use inert gases (because they are replaced by ambient air) and the ability to determine the exposure dose. In terms of its characteristics this new product corresponds to world standards. There are no domestic analogues of it. Parameters and examples of using this device are presented. It will be in demand for healthcare, veterinary medicine, and cosmetology. The device can be used for disinfection of surfaces, including heat-sensitive ones, such as living tissues, and can serve as a prototype for development of various physiotherapeutic devices.
Supporting agencies: The work was carried out with partial support from the Belarusian Republican Foundation for Fundamental Research (grant F22SRBG-006).
