Abstract: Cationic photosensitizers have good binding ability with negatively charged bacteria and fungi, exhibiting broad potential for use in antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). However, cationic photosensitizers often display unsatisfactory transkingdom selectivity between mammalian cells and pathogens,… read more here.
