- the ultrasonic wave generated by the ultrasonic element 87 is propagated to the ultrasonic transducers 81 and 82, diffused by the ultrasonic transducers 81 and 82, and propagated to water.
- the water in the treatment tank 11 is decomposed by ultrasonic waves to generate hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen atoms.
- ultrasonic waves are propagated to the feet indirectly through water and directly through the ultrasonic transducers 81 and 82, and the water in the body is similarly decomposed by the ultrasonic waves to generate hydroxyl. Radicals and hydrogen atoms are generated.
- a liquid other than water is used as the medium, when the ultrasonic wave propagates to the liquid, the water in the liquid is decomposed by the ultrasonic wave, Xyl radicals and hydrogen atoms are generated.
- the ultrasonic element drive circuit 21 constitutes hydroxyl radical generation processing means (not shown), and the hydroxyl radical generation processing means performs hydroxyl radical generation processing and drives the ultrasonic element 87 by driving the ultrasonic element 87. Produces hydroxyl radicals.
- microorganisms such as bacteria such as ringworm that cause athlete's foot can be sufficiently oxidized, decomposed, and sterilized, so that the affected area is treated. Touch with force S.
- the amount of hydroxyl radicals generated is determined by electron spin resonance (5,5-dimethyl- 1-pyrroline- N-oxide (DMPO)).
- the value measured by the ESR) spin trap method (apparatus) was set to 0 ⁇ l C ⁇ M] or more and 60 [M] or less.
- the driving time of the ultrasonic element 87 was 1 second or more, and the time was set such that the cellular tissue of the human body was not affected!
- the driving time is shortened when the output of the ultrasonic wave is large, and is prolonged when the output is small.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a state in which an ultrasonic deflection apparatus is attached to a flat ultrasonic transducer according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- 82 is an ultrasonic transducer
- 87 is an ultrasonic device accommodated in the element accommodating portion am2
- 89 is a main body
- 92 is a cylindrical portion
- 121 is detachable from the ultrasonic transducer 82.
- the ultrasonic deflecting device 121 is formed by surrounding the main body 89 and a base 122 formed so as to surround the main body 89, and rising upward from the base 122.
- a reflective mirror 125 having a curved reflecting surface is provided in the reflective casing 123 by a bolt 127 as a fixing member at the upper end of the reflective casing 123. It is attached.
- a window 131 is formed on the side of the reflective casing 123.
- the ultrasonic element is generated by 87 and propagates upward in the water.
- the sound wave is reflected by the reflector 125, deflected in the lateral direction, and propagates in water.
- the ultrasonic deflection device 121 can be attached to and detached from the ultrasonic transducer 82, and the affected area can be effectively irradiated with ultrasonic waves.
- a force that allows an affected area such as a foot to be immersed in water by putting a foot or the like into the treatment tank 11 containing water If the affected area is treated using, even if the water in the treatment tank 11 is replaced, multiple people may be infected with ringworm.
- a sheet-like container made of a flexible material is set in the treatment tank 11 as an inner container, water is stored in the inner, and a foot or the like is placed in the inner. Can be put in.
- the inner and the water in the inner are discarded, so that the possibility that a plurality of persons will be infected with ringworm fungus can be reduced.
- the amount of water put into the treatment tank 11 is set to be equal to the force S between the upper ends of the ultrasonic vibrators 81 and 82 and the water surface.
- the ultrasonic transducers 81 and 82 are used in order to improve the adhesion between the inner and the ultrasonic transducers 81 and 82. It is only necessary to form water droplets on the upper surface of the substrate.
- a representative ringworm, in this case, T. mentagrophytes, is put in a test tube, and the sterilization conditions including ultrasonic frequency, water temperature, voltage Vd, irradiation time, etc. are changed for T. mentagrophytes. And experimented. The evaluation method was based on the number of T. mentagrophytes.
- the frequency is 1.65 [MHzB, and the voltage Vd is changed to
- the amount of xyl radical generated is about 8 [, 1 M] or about 50 [, 1 M] and the irradiation time is 5 minutes or more and 10 minutes or less
- the water temperature is 50 (° C) and T.
- the number of mentagrophytes has decreased from 1 million to 0.
- the bactericidal effect is remarkably improved by setting the temperature of the water to 40 ° C or higher.
- the temperature of the water is preferably set to 40 [° C] or more and 43 [° C] or less.
- the skin may be damaged. Therefore, by directly irradiating cultured cells with ultrasonic waves and setting the voltage Vd, the amount of hydroxyl radical generated is about 24 M], and when the irradiation time is 10 minutes, the cells are reduced by 50%. I understood that. In contrast, when the amount of hydroxyl radicals generated was about 4 M] and the irradiation time was 10 minutes, the cells were found to decrease by 10%.
- the amount of hydroxyl radical generated is 0 ⁇ 1 [ ⁇ ⁇ ] or more, force, 2 [M] or less, and the water temperature is 10 [° C] or more and 20 [° C] or less.
- the foot was irradiated with ultrasound. When the irradiation time was set at 20 minutes, 3 to; and irradiation was repeated 10 times, the affected area was completely cured. As described above, when ultrasonic irradiation is repeated, the amount of hydroxyl radical generated in one irradiation can be reduced to 0 ⁇ 1 [ ⁇ ⁇ ] or more, force, or 2 [M] or less.
- the degree of hydroxyl radical generation is 0 ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ and the degree is 5 ° C or more and 50 ° C or less.
- V preferably less than 20 minutes
- the amount of hydroxyl radicals generated may be increased to about 20 [ ⁇ ] or more and about 50 [ ⁇ ] or less, and the irradiation time for one affected area may be shortened to repeat irradiation. . In this case, if the irradiation time is within 2 minutes, ringworms can be sterilized within a range that does not affect human cells.
- the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be variously modified based on the gist of the present invention, and does not exclude the scope of the present invention.
