Direct interactions of laser and ion irradiations with living cells can dramatically affect their functionality. However, the physical mechanisms and biochemical pathways underlying the effects of non-thermal plasma and laser light on cell fate have still not been fully explored. We show how laser and plasma ions induce either direct physical destruction of bacteria or triggers programmed cell death.
