Inativação fotodinâmica de microrganismos Photodynamic inactivation of microorganisms
<abstract language="eng">Photodynamic Therapy uses photosensitive dyes and visible light that, combined in the presence of oxygen, produce cytotoxic species that cause tumor death. Microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts and viruses (including HIV) can also be inactivated by v...
