Second harmonic generation nanoparticles enables near-infrared photodynamic therapy from visible light reactive photosensitizer conjugates

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Ayan Barbora et al. from the Faculty of Natural Sciences, Department of Physics, Ariel University, Ariel, Israel, Faculty of Engineering have published the research: Second harmonic generation nanoparticles enables Near-Infrared Photodynamic Therapy from visible light reactive photosensitizer conjugates, in the Journal: PLOS ONE of May/26,/2022
• what: The experiments indicate that by incorporating appropriate SHG capable BT harmonic nanoparticles into the PDT process, commonly used photosensitizers conventionally responsive only to visible light spectrum (illustratively Protoporphyrin IX and Curcumin respectively) can be made photodynamically reactive to deeper penetrating Near-Infrared light. The experiments . . .
