Unveiling the potent antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria – Water remediation with monocharged chlorins

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Chl 1a and ZnChl 1b with only one cationic charge photoinactivate E. coli at low concentrations and with a reduced light dose, it is an importing discovery that deserves further exploration. These monocharged chlorin dyes have the potential for water remediation.
