Synthetic biology-instructed transdermal microneedle patch for traceable photodynamic therapy
5-Aminolevulinic acid-based photodynamic therapy heavily depends on the biological transformation efficiency of 5-aminolevulinic acid to protoporphyrin IX, while the lack of an effective delivery system and imaging navigation are major hurdles in ...

5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA): Analysis of Preclinical and Safety Literature
Problem: 5-ALA has been used for many years at relatively high dose amounts in single doses for photodynamic therapy and immunofluorescence of tumors. An analysis of compiled data relating to safety and any side-effects about the use of 5-ALA at low doses has not yet been published.
