Parametric study of afterglows issued from Dielectric Barrier Discharges in nitrogen and air and applied on Aureobasidium fungi

This article is devoted to the study of afterglows issued from two Dielectric Barrier Discharge reactors driven by two distinct High Voltage generators. The obtained afterglows are applied on Aureobasidium pullulans fungi in view of a curative treatment. In a first part, the electrical characteristics of the discharges obtained with both systems are studied and in a second part are presented the results of the fungi treatment efficiency.
