Résumé
Low-temperature atmospheric-pressure plasma has been studied for disinfection purposes. When plasma is exposed to water, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are generated and preserved in the water fraction (plasma-treated water [PTW]), which consequently exhibits bactericidal activity. At low temperatures, one of the bactericidal components of PTW is peroxynitric acid (PNA). Importantly, PNA can also be synthesized by chemical reaction, without exposure to plasma. In this study, we evaluated the bactericidal properties of PNA based on reaction kinetics in comparison with other disinfectants. The analysis, based on dose-dependent effects, showed that PNA exhibited about 1 and 10 times the bactericidal activity of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and peracetic acid, respectively. In addition, we evaluated the influence of organic contaminants on the bactericidal effects of PNA and HOCl. The bactericidal potential of both disinfectants was reduced by bovine serum albumin (BSA); however, PNA showed about 30-times-higher resistance against BSA inhibition than HOCl. Analysis of the dose-dependent effects of PNA revealed that the inhibition of bactericidal effect was caused by its consumption. Further experiments using model substrates containing particular amino acid residues (Met, Cys, Lys, and Leu) suggested that the bacterial inactivation by PNA is less affected by BSA due to the low reactivity and narrow reactivity spectrum of PNA for amino acid residues. Overall, our results suggest that PNA has a great disinfection potential, especially in the presence of organic contaminants (e.g., on the surface of the human body and on medical instruments contaminated with biological fluids).
