Multidrug resistant (MDR) bacterial infections have become a severe threat to the community
health due to a progressive rise in antibiotic resistance. Nanoparticle-based photodynamic …

The persistence of multidrug resistance among microorganisms has directed a mandate
towards a hunt for the development of alternative therapeutic modalities. In this context …

In the current scenario, frontline antibiotics are losing effectiveness against multidrug-
resistant (MDR) bacteria because of the single mode of action. The accumulation of …

Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern that is driving the exploration of alternative ways
of killing bacteria. Here we show that gold nanoparticles synthesized by the mycelium of …

Photosensitizing agents are the cornerstone of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). They play an
essential role in deactivation process of multidrug resistant pathogens and tumor treatments …

Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) utilizes reactive oxygen species such as singlet
oxygen (1O2) and free radicals via photosensitizers, which are light and light-sensitive …

Microbial resistance to antibiotics, antifungals, and virucides is one of today's most
significant public health problems. Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) is a …

Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (APDT) can effectively kill bacteria by generating
reactive oxygen species (ROS) under laser irradiation and does not produce drug …

Efficient antimicrobials are urgently needed for the treatment of bacterial biofilms due to their
resistance to traditional drugs. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a new strategy that has been …

Nanomaterial-based antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising approach
for the eradication of drug-resistant bacterial biofilms. However, the intrinsic cytotoxicity of …
