title = "Treatment characteristics of second order structure of proteins using low-pressure oxygen RF plasma",
abstract = "Removal of proteins from the surface of medical equipments is attempted using oxygen plasma produced by RF discharge. FTIR spectra indicate that the bonding of C-H and N-H in the casein protein is reduced after irradiation of oxygen plasma. Also, the second order structure of a protein such as α-helix and β-sheet are modified by the oxygen plasma. Complete removal of casein protein with the concentration of 0.016mg/cm2 that is equivalent to remnants on the medical equipment requires two hours avoiding the damage to medical equipments.",
