BODIPY dyes tend to be highly fluorescent, but their emissions can be attenuated by adding
substituents with appropriate oxidation potentials. Substituents like these have electrons to …

Triplet photosensitizers (PSs) are compounds that can be efficiently excited to the triplet
excited state which subsequently act as catalysts in photochemical reactions. The name is …

This review focuses on classifying different types of long wavelength absorbing BODIPY
dyes based on the wide range of structural modification methods that have been adopted …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising therapeutic approach for anticancer and
antibacterial treatment via photoinduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation …

Boron dipyrromethene (Bodipy) is one of the most extensively investigated organic
chromophores. Most of the investigations are focused on the singlet excited state of Bodipy …

Abstract Photo Dynamic Therapy (PDT) is regarded as an effective therapeutic approach for
cancer, which employs light and photosensitizing chemical substances. The successful …

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 …

Novel BODIPY photosensitizers were developed for imaging‐guided photodynamic therapy.
The introduction of a strong electron donor to the BODIPY core through a phenyl linker …

Organic photosensitizers possessing efficient intersystem crossing (ISC) and forming long-
living triplet excited states, play a crucial role in a number of applications. A common …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has shown promise as an effective treatment modality for
cancers and other localized diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration and …
