Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for reducing pathogen loading is disclosed. A plasma processing chamber is sealed at one end and a pressure sealable door at the other end, with electrodes within the chamber. A first electrode is coupled to a RF power source and a second electrode is coupled to ground. An inlet port introduces a process gas into the chamber. A vacuum pump draws the process gas into the chamber and exhausts through the pump. An object is positioned within an inside wall of the chamber. A surface of the object is disinfected when a plasma field is generated when RF energy from the electrodes is applied to the introduced process gas.
