Photophysical properties and therapeutic use of natural photosensitizers
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2021 Many natural processes depend on light energy, which is harnessed by means of photosensitizers. In plants, the photosensitized generation of reactive oxygen species is part of the mechanism of protection against biotic and abiotic stress. The toxicity of
