The use of non-toxic dyes or photosensitizers (PS) in combination with harmless visible light
that is known as photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been known for over a hundred years, but …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) employs the combination of nontoxic photosensitizers and
visible light that is absorbed by the chromophore to produce long-lived triplet states that can …

Photosensitizers (PSs) have received significant attention recently in cancer treatment due
to its theranostic capability for imaging and phototherapy. These PSs are highly responsive …

Various environmental, physical and chemical stresses on cells may induce either an
overproduction of ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) or a deficiency of antioxidant enzymes …

Early detection of cancer often requires time consuming protocols and expensive
instrumentation. To address these limitations, a Rose Bengal conjugated gold nanorod (RB …

Previous studies have shown that antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI) can be
strongly potentiated by the addition of the non-toxic inorganic salt, potassium iodide (KI) …

Current therapies for breast cancer are often limited by short-term efficacy due to the
emergence of drug resistance. In view of this, there is much interest in the identification of …

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a rapidly develo** non-surgical therapy that initiates
sensitizers' catalytic reaction using ultrasound, showing great potential for cancer treatment …

Rose Bengal acetate photodynamic therapy (RBAc–PDT) induced multiple cell death
pathways in HeLa cells through ROS and ER stress. Indeed, apoptosis was the first …

Rose Bengal, an anionic photosensitizer was conjugated to organically modified silica
