Effect of 1O2 quencher depletion on the efficiency of photodynamic therapy
Abstract
Al(iii) phthalocyanine chloride tetrasulfonic acid (AlPcS4) fluorescence and photodynamic oxygen consumption were monitored during AlPcS4-photodynamic therapy (PDT) of Mat LyLu cells in suspension. These measurements were used to calculate the PDT efficiency, which is defined as the oxygen consumption rate divided by the sensitizer concentration. As a function of the intracellular oxygen concentration consumed by PDT, the normalized PDT …
