Abstract

Owing to ozone instability, it needs to be generated only when needed and used at once. Generation of ozone can be achieved by: (1) UV radiation, (2) an electrochemical process and (3) by corona discharge but it must be noted that the first two methods yield a low ozone output and a poor regulation of production The ozonetherapist must have an ozone generator that is safe, atoxic, and reproducible.
