Photodynamic Inactivation Of Rubella Virus [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1972 Summary Rubella virus possesses inherent photosensitivity and slowly loses infectivity when exposed to light. Sensitisation with proflavine markedly increases the rate of photoinactivation, and loss of infectivity, without loss of haemagglutinin activity, is most readily achieved at pH 9·0.

Photosensitizing proteins for antibacterial photodynamic inactivation [PDF]
Translational Biophotonics, 2020 AbstractWe review recent applications of water‐soluble proteins as carriers for photosensitizing molecules in antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). The low water solubility of photosensitizers and their tendency to aggregate often impair their photophysics, thus resulting in lower bioavailability of the compounds.
