Plasma-driven in situ H2O2 generation offers a potential sustainable route for oxidative biotransformations, but its application has been hindered by challenges such as insufficient H2O2 production and enzyme degradation from direct plasma...
Plasma-generated H2O2 can be used to fuel biocatalytic reactions that require H2O2 as co-substrate such as the conversion of ethylbenzene to (R)-1-phenylethanol ((R)-1-PhOl) catalyzed by unspecific peroxygenase from Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO)....
Plasma-driven biocatalysis utilizes in situ H2O2 production by atmospheric pressure plasmas to drive H2O2-dependent enzymatic reactions. Having previously established plasma-driven biocatalysis using recombinant unspecific peroxygenase from...
Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasmas have an antiseptic activity beneficial in different medical applications. In a genome-wide screening, hydrogen peroxide and superoxide were identified as key species contributing to the antibacterial...
Cold atmospheric pressure plasmas are used for surface decontamination or disinfection, e.g. in clinical settings. Protein aggregation has been shown to significantly contribute to the antibacterial mechanisms of plasma. To investigate the...
Non-thermal plasmas are used in various applications to inactivate biological agents or biomolecules. A complex cocktail of reactive species, (vacuum) UV radiation and in some cases exposure to an electric field together cause the detrimental...
A molecular‐level understanding of the effects of atmospheric‐pressure plasma on biological samples requires knowledge of the effects on proteins. Superoxide dismutases, which detoxify superoxide under oxidative stress conditions, play a key role...
Peroxidases and peroxygenases are promising classes of enzymes for biocatalysis because of their ability to carry out one‐electron oxidation reactions and stereoselective oxyfunctionalizations. However, industrial application is limited, as the...
