Efficacy of the combination of flashlight (365 nm) and riboflavin in reducing microorganisms isolated from canine corneas: in vitro study Ultraviolet Flashlight for Riboflavin Photoactivation

2026-01-29

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> The photoactivation of riboflavin induces genetic and structural damage to microbial cell membranes, potentially leading to the death of bacteria, viruses, and fungi. However, the conventional approach requires the use of a Photoactivated Chromophore for Corneal Collagen Crosslinking (PACK-CXL), a high-cost device with limited availability in clinical practice. As a low-cost alternati...
