Effects of the counter-ion on the photodynamic potential of a novel tetrapentyl-phenothiazinium salt
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative to conventional therapies for the treatment of tumours and other non-malignant lesions. This technique combines a photosensitive drug (photosensitiser) with light and oxygen to elicit a cytotoxic effect via the generation of reactive oxygen speci...
