Front Cover: The aggregation of soluble serum proteins and hemolysis, which don't occur in the natural blood coagulation process, appear in the induced blood coagulation by the lowtemperature plasma in atmospheric pressure. In this study, focusing on hemolysis by plasma, we elucidated that the plasmaderived current flows through erythrocytes determine the extent of hemolysis, by covering the stage with a dielectric and minimizing the leakage current. Further details can be found in the article by Kenji Miyamoto and Yuzuru Ikehara ( e1800142 ).
