Plasma Processes And Polymers

Plasma treatments are currently being assessed as a seed processing technology for agricultural purposes. There is sufficient information as a proof-of-concept, but a lack of standardization in the methodology prevents a convincing evaluation of plasma treatment on seeds. It would be helpful to coordinate research efforts to make the entry for newcomers into this interdisciplinary field less overwhelming and to aid in transferring this technology into the industry by establishing a common protocol. This review presents the parameters used in the seed preparation, the plasma treatment of the seed, and the seed posttreatment. This summary of the plasma and biological parameters is intended to raise awareness about questions that need to be addressed to properly record protocol details and reproduce results for the plasma treatment of seeds.
