Plasma-induced inactivation of bacteria in aqueous liquids is supported by acidic pH and accompanied by generation of low-molecular chemical species which are detected as nitrate, nitrite and hydrogen peroxide. To get more insight into mechanisms of change of liquid composition by plasma treatment as well as transmission of bactericidal plasma effects into aqueous liquids, bactericidal effects under different plasma-treatment conditions and liquid analytics are combined with theoretical considerations to focus possible reaction channels of plasma-water interactions. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
