Highly efficient optogenetic cell ablation in C. elegans using membrane-targeted miniSOG. [PDF]
, 2016 The genetically encoded photosensitizer miniSOG (mini Singlet Oxygen Generator) can be used to kill cells in C. elegans. miniSOG generates the reactive oxygen species (ROS) singlet oxygen after illumination with blue light.

Photosensitization and controlled photosensitization with BODIPY dyes [PDF]
Coordination Chemistry Reviews, 2019 Abstract Highly versatile BODIPY dyes proved themselves to be very useful as photosensitizers. These dyes can be derivatized to absorb essentially anywhere in the visible the near IR region of the spectrum. As a result of their diverse reactivity, singlet oxygen generation efficiency can be modulated very precisely, leading to a number of selective ...
