## Abstract The purpose of this study is to elucidate the interaction between the cell and the surface of poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) samples, which were modified using a low‐temperature plasma treatment apparatus at atmospheric pressure. The plasma treatments were carried out in the atmospheres of air,

✦ Synopsis
Glassy carbon plates were treated with an atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD). He gas, gas mixtures of He and reactive gases such as O 2 , CO 2 and NH 3 , Ar gas and Ar/NH 3 gas mixture were used as treatment gases. The oxygen and nitrogen contents on the surface as well as defect density increased with the plasma treatments. Adhesion test of the treated glassy carbon covered with cured epoxy showed cohesive failure, indicating strong bonding after the treatments. This is in contrast to the adhesion tests of untreated samples where the epoxy readily peeled off the glassy carbon.

## Abstract Thin layers of atmospheric‐pressure non‐equilibrium plasma can be generated by pulse surface corona discharges and surface barrier discharges developing on the treated surfaces or brought into a close contact with the treated surfaces. Plasma sources based on these discharge types have
