Biomedical applications using low temperature plasma technology

  • 摘要: 低温等离子体技术与生物医学似乎是两种风马牛不相及的事物,可是两者的结合却可以对现代科技发展产生重要的影响.许多人都认为21世纪是生物技术的世纪,可见人们对生物技术发展抱着怎样的期待.低温等离子体技术正在成为生物材料和生物医学器件的生产和研究的广阔的平台.文章简要介绍了一些用于材料表面改性的技术以及低温等离子体技术在生物医学方面的应用,并进而讨论了将低温等离子体技术与生物技术相结合的途径以及还需要解决的问题.文章还详细讨论了一种用于表面功能化的脉冲等离子体技术方法作为二者最佳结合的一个典范.文章最后指出,生物医学与等离子体技术的完美结合可能对21世纪的科技发展产生革命性的影响;而为了实现这个目标,需要多学科专家的通力合作.

     

    Abstract: Low temperature plasma technology and biomedicine are two different subjects, but the combination of the two may play a critical role in modern science and technology. The 21st century is believed to be a biotechnology century. Plasma technology is becoming a widely used platform for the fabrication of biomaterials and biomedical devices. In this paper some of the technologies used for material surface modification are briefly introduced. Some biomedical applications using plasma technology are described, followed by suggestions as to how a bridge between plasma technology and biomedicine can be built. A pulsed plasma technique that is used for surface functionalization is discussed in detail as an example of this kind of bridge or combination. Finally, it is pointed out that the combination of biomedical and plasma technology will be an important development for revolutionary 21st century technologies that requires different experts from different fields to work together.
