Cereals, an important food for humans and animals, may carry microbial contamination undesirable to the consumer or to the next generation of plants. Currently, non-thermal plasma (NTP) is often considered a new and safe microbicidal agent without or with very low adverse side effects. NTP is a partially or fully ionized gas at room temperature, typically generated by various electric discharges and rich in reactive particles. This review summarizes the effects of NTP on various types of cereals and products. NTP has undisputed beneficial effects with high potential for future practical use in decontamination and disinfection.
谷物是人类和动物的重要食物,可能携带消费者或下一代植物所不需要的微生物污染。目前,非热等离子体(NTP)常被认为是一种新型且安全的杀菌剂,副作用很小或几乎没有副作用。NTP是一种在室温下部分或完全电离的气体,通常由各种放电产生,富含活性粒子。本文综述了NTP对各类谷物及其制品的影响。NTP具有无可争议的有益效果,在去污和消毒方面具有很高的未来实际应用潜力。
