Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy: An overview

open access: yesJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2011
Inflammatory periodontal disease caused by dental plaque is characterized by the clinical signs of inflammation and loss of periodontal tissue support. The mechanical removal of this biofilm and adjunctive use of antibacterial disinfectants and antibiotics have been the conventional methods of periodontal therapy.

Biophysical aspects of photodynamic therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a multimodality cancer treatment available for the palliation or eradication of systemic and cutaneous malignancies. In this thesis, the application of PDT is for the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).

Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy in the Control of COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), using well known, safe and cost-effective photosensitizers, such as phenothiazines, e.g., methylene blue (MB), or porphyrins, e.g., protoporphyrin-IX (PP-IX), might help to mitigate the COVID-19 either to prevent infections or to develop photoactive fabrics (e.g., masks, suits, gloves) to disinfect surfaces ...

Synergistic antimicrobial effect of photodynamic therapy and ciprofloxacin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 2016
The occurrence of a variety of pathogens resistant to current antibiotics remains the major problem in medical care, especially when bacterial infections are established as biofilms. In this study, we propose the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) as a monotherapy and associated with antibiotic as an alternative treatment.
