Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has become a fundamental tool in modern
therapeutics, notably due to the expanding versatility of photosensitizers (PSs) and the …

Pigments have become a very important part of food research, not only adding sensory
properties to food, but also providing functional properties to the food system. In this paper …

Due to their properties, snail slime-based products have been appreciated and used
worldwide. So, as an alternative and innovative use of snail slime, it was adopted to induce …

In pursuit of enhancing the photostability of chlorophyll, a novel organic–inorganic hybrid
pigment has been synthesized via a supramolecular intercalation assembly method …

The facile and straightforward fabrication of NIR-responsive theranostic materials with high
biocompatibility is still an unmet need for nanomedicine applications. Here, we used a …

Chlorophyll, the essential green pigment in plants, is considered a promising natural
photosensitizer (PS) for photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, it suffers from lower stability …

The aim of this paper is to present and characterize Polyamidoamine-based hydrogels
(PAA) as scaffolds to host photoactive Chlorophyll a (Chl a) from Spirulina (Arthrospira …

Bacterial biofilm are complex microbial communities covered by a matrix of extracellular
polymeric substances, which develops when a community of microorganisms irreversibly …

Chlorophyll (Chl), as a rich natural pigment, is limited in applications due to poor
photostability. The hydrophobic properties of Chl attributed to the tetrapyrrole ring and …

Sonodynamic therapy is an emerging approach that uses low-intensity ultrasound to activate
a sonosensitizer agent triggering its cytotoxicity for selective cancer cell killing. Several …
