Photosensitization and controlled photosensitization with BODIPY dyes [PDF]
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 ...

Liposomal photosensitizers: potential platforms for anticancer photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy is a well-established and clinically approved treatment for several types of cancer. Antineoplastic photodynamic therapy is based on photosensitizers, i.e., drugs that absorb photons translating light energy into a chemical potential
