Abstract
Photodithazine, a glucosamine salt of chlorin e6, enhanced the inactivation of Candida guilliermondii cells by visible light. The sensitizing effect of photodithazine was found to be related to free or cell surface-bound molecules of this dye. Sodium azide (a singlet oxygen quencher) and propyl gallate (an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation) protected yeast cells from the photodithazine-enhanced photoinactivation.Entities:
