In vitro study: methylene blue-based antibacterial photodynamic inactivation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most antibiotic-resistant and opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised and debilitated patients. It is considered the cause of most severe skin infections and is frequently found in hospital burn units. Due to its

Tuning riboflavin derivatives for photodynamic inactivation of pathogens [PDF]
The development of effective pathogen reduction strategies is required due to the rise in antibiotic-resistant bacteria and zoonotic viral pandemics. Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of bacteria and viruses is a potent reduction strategy that bypasses ...

Photosensitizers Mediated Photodynamic Inactivation against Fungi
Superficial and systemic fungal infections are essential problems for the modern health care system. One of the challenges is the growing resistance of fungi to classic antifungals and the constantly increasing cost of therapy.

Advances in antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation at the nanoscale
Abstract The alarming worldwide increase in antibiotic resistance amongst microbial pathogens necessitates a search for new antimicrobial techniques, which will not be affected by, or indeed cause resistance themselves. Light‐mediated photoinactivation is one such technique that takes advantage of the whole spectrum of light to ...

Research Progress on Photodynamic Inactivation in Food Sterilization and Preservation [PDF]
Microbes can cause food spoilage and waste, and even cause diseases posing a threat to human health. Being different from the traditional sterilization technology, photodynamic inactivation is a non-thermal physical sterilization technology based on the ...

Mechanism of Photodynamic Inactivation and Its Advantages and Disadvantages in Food Applications
Hazardous microorganisms are an important factor for causing food quality and safety problems. Antibiotics effectively inhibit bacteria, and the resistance of microorganisms prevents them from being effectively controlled, which not only aggravate the ...
