Cold plasma treatment on e.g. skin diseases causes an abatement of diseases by the assured disinfected effect of plasma [1]. Here, we present our results on the basic investigation of human skin, studied with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy [2]. Furthermore we have investigated the change in plasma treated skin samples to understand the basic effects of plasma treatment of biological systems. In addition to that we show a comparison between human and mouse skin probes after plasma treatement, which is of particular medical interest.
