Inactivation of Pathogenic Microorganisms by Photodynamic Techniques:Mechanistic Aspects and Perspective Applications.

2007-04-01

Abstract excerpt

The worldwide rise in antibiotic resistance by microorganisms has stimulated intensive research toward the development of alternative therapeutic strategies. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is emerging as a promising modality for the treatment of localized microbial infections. Studies on the relationship between the chemical structure of photosensitising agents and their phototoxicity against microbial pathogens led t...
