2006 journal article
Mode of action of a novel nonchemical method of insect control: Atmospheric pressure plasma discharge
JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY, 99(1), 38–47.
author keywords: atmospheric pressure plasma; insect control; dielectric barrier discharge; quarantine
TL;DR:
Changes in the behavior of cockroaches after plasma exposure, including the loss of photo-, vibro-, and thigmotropic responses, inability to right themselves, and hyperexcitatory symptoms, suggest that the site of action of APPD in insects is the nervous and/or neuromuscular system.

2005 journal article
Visualization of helium dielectric barrier discharge treatment of green peach aphids on tobacco leaves
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PLASMA SCIENCE, 33(2), 290–291.
author keywords: dielectric barrier discharge (DBD); insect control
TL;DR:
Although the streamer formation has reduced the treatment for aphids on tobacco leaves under experimental conditions, control of insects such as lice and fleas that reside on alternative substrates can benefit from dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) treatment.

2004 journal article
Plasma and antimicrobial treatment of nonwoven fabrics for surgical gowns
TEXTILE RESEARCH JOURNAL, 74(12), 1073–1079.
TL;DR:
Plasma-treated and water-repellent Sontara samples show higher blood and water resistance compared to other treatments and show a zone of inhibition for Staphylococcus aureus, thus providing a barrier against microbes.

2002 journal article
Atmospheric pressure helium plus oxygen plasma treatment of ultrahigh modulus polyethylene fibers
JOURNAL OF ADHESION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, 16(4), 449–457.
author keywords: adhesion; surface treatments; interface/interphase; fibers
TL;DR:
Ultrahigh modulus polyethylene fibers were treated with atmospheric pressure helium + oxygen plasma in a capacitively coupled device at a frequency of 7.5 kHz and the tensile strength of the fibers was either unchanged or decreased by 10–13% by the plasma treatments.
