About

Photodynamic therapy is a therapeutic and investigational approach that leverages the photochemical interaction between a photosensitizing compound, specific light wavelengths, and endogenous oxygen. This methodology explores the generation of cytotoxic reactive oxygen species and their effects on target cells or tissues, offering a spatially and temporally controlled strategy for applications ranging from oncology to antimicrobial treatment.
