During the last decade atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) have found numerous applications in medicine, dentistry and life sciences. Among others, APPJs have been used for microorganism inactivation, wound healing, cancer cells growth inhibition and deactivation of biofilms on dental implants [1]. But in spite of being in focus of many scientific researches, APPJs are still not completely understood. Determination of plasma energy influx towards the substrate can be considered as the first step in elucidating some of the unresolved issues in plasma medicine such as determining dosage in plasma treatment and understanding of plasma-liquid interactions. In the presented study we compare performances of self-made calorimetric probes [2,3] for the measurement of the energy influx of a commercial APPJ used for biomedical applications. The goal of the study was to find the most adequate calorimetric probe for energy influx measurements under specific conditions encountered in medical practice.
