Nanotechnology in photodynamic therapy
Oral Oncology ReportsPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive treatment that employs a photosensitizer to destroy cancer cells. Its efficiency is determined by the activation light features, which include the photosensitizer molecule, light wavelength, tumour ...

Wireless sequential dual light delivery for programmed PDT in vivo
Light: Science & ApplicationsUsing photodynamic therapy (PDT) to treat deep-seated cancers is limited due to inefficient delivery of photosensitizers and low tissue penetration of light. Polymeric nanocarriers are widely used for photosensitizer delivery, while the self-quenching of

Toward Singlet Oxygen Delivery at a Measured Rate: A Self-Reporting Photosensitizer
, 2016 A Bodipy-based energy transfer cassette with a singlet oxygen reactive linker between the donor and acceptor modules has an interesting emergent property, if the acceptor module is also a photosensitizer.
