According to a new study jointly participated in the Xinhua News Agency, China Australia and Australia, it is found that atmospheric cold plasma plasma can inhibit coronary virus invading human cells and lay the foundation for the development of drugs such as nasal injection that can prevent new coronary viruses.

This study was participated in many countries such as Queensland University of Science and Technology, Girifis University, China University of China, Xiamen University, Jiangnan University, and South Medical University. Related papers have recently published in the Journal of the Australian "Diagnosis and Treatment".

The atmospheric cold plasma is generated under normal atmosphere. The temperature is close to the room temperature. It has safety and human tolerance characteristics. It can sterilize, promote skin wound healing, and inhibit cancer cell growth.

Rick Thompson, a professor of Queensland University of Technology who led this research, said that the new crown virus needs to be combined with the receptor ACE2 on the surface of the human cell to enter the infection with human cells. Studies have found that even if they only briefly expose the atmospheric pressure -cold plasma, the ACE2 receptor on the cell surface will disappear immediately, which reduces the way to prevent infection through the infection of human cells through receptors and prevent infection.

Thompson said that atmospheric cold plasma plasma is easy to produce, and its activity can also be transmitted to water or other liquids. This brings possibilities for developing new crowns to prevent drugs, such as mouthwash or nasal injection.
