Method and kit for treating microorganisms in the oral cavity. Such microorganisms include those which contribute to periodontal disease and halitosis. The method comprises the steps of applying a photosensitizer to the interior of the mouth within and / or outside of the periodontal pockets, waiting a predetermined period of time; and irradiating the whole interior of the mouth with a non-coherent light having a wavelength spectrum absorbable by the photosensitizer, and at a predetermined light intensity and for a predetermined time period sufficient to deliver a predetermined light dose.

Methods and compositions for treating conditions of the eye

InactiveUS7125542B2Improve treatment efficacyReduced and delayed recurrenceUltrasonic/sonic/infrasonic diagnosticsBiocideAnti angiogenesisPhotosensitizer
Provided are methods and compositions for the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of ocular conditions characterized by the presence of unwanted choroidal neovasculature, for example, neovascular age-related macular degeneration. The selectivity and sensitivity of the PDT method can be enhanced by combining the PDT with an anti-angiogenesis factor, for example, angiostatin or endostatin, or with an apoptosis-modulating factor. Furthermore, the selectivity and sensitivity of the PDT may be further enhanced by coupling a targeting moiety to the photosensitizer so as to target the photosensitizer to choroidal neovasculature.

Metal-organic frameworks, and pharmaceutic preparation and application thereof

The present invention provides metal-organic frameworks, and pharmaceutic preparation and application thereof. The metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) comprising photosensitizers are described. The MOFs can also include moieties capable of absorbing X- rays and / or scintillation. Optionally, the photosensitizer or a derivative thereof can form a bridging ligand of the MOF. Further optionally, the MOF can comprise inorganic nanoparticles in the cavities or channels of the MOF or can be used in combination with an inorganic nanoparticle. Also described are methods of using MOFs and / or inorganic nanoparticles in photodynamic therapy or in X-ray induced photodynamic therapy, either with or without the co-administration of one or more immunotherapeutic agent and / or one or more chemotherapeutic agent.

Nano particles compounded of up-conversion nano particles and gold nanorods and preparation method and application of nano particles

The invention provides nano particles compounded of up-conversion nano particles and gold nanorods and a preparation method and application of the nano particles, and belongs to the field of nano biomedicine. The method comprises the following steps: reacting up-conversion nuclear shell nano particles with a photosensitizer; and then, coupling with SiO2-coated gold nanorods to obtain the nano particles compounded of up-conversion nano particles and gold nanorods. The shell thickness of the SiO2-coated gold nanorods is 30-60nm. By means of the surface covalency or photosensitizer absorption of the up-conversion nano particles, the energy transfer efficiency is improved, so that the singlet oxygen yield is improved and the effect of photodynamics therapy is improved. Meanwhile, the acting distance betweeb the gold nanorods and the up-conversion nano particles is regulated to avoid the up-conversion fluorescence quenching phenomenon. According to the invention, upconversion and photodynamics therapy of the photosensitizer are combined with the photo-thermal effect of the SiO2-coated gold nanorods for preparing a synergic treatment nano platform. The purpose of two treatment ways are realized by one excitation light source is reached.

Water-soluble fullerene and preparation and application methods thereof

The invention relates to water-soluble fullerene and preparing method thereof, can effectively solve the problems of poor solubility, low photosensitive activity and poor biocompatibility of the conventional fullerene, and adopts the technical scheme that water-soluble polymer polyethylene imine is connected to a fullerene molecule through chemical bonds to obtain water-soluble fullerene; and theweight ratio of polyethylene imine to fullerene is 0.08 to 0.12 : 1. The method comprises the following steps: the fullerene is reacted with an ammoniation reagent to obtain amino fullerene; amino fullerene is reacted with aziridine in such a manner that under the existence of protonated hydrogen ions, aziridine is grafted on amino groups continuously; and finally, the polymer of fullerene and polyethylene imine (namely water-soluble fullerene) is obtained. The water-soluble fullerene prepared according to the invention has the advantages that the characteristics of fullerene are not damaged;the water dispersibility is high; the toxicity is low; the stability is favorable; the preparation method is simple; the cost is low; and the water-soluble fullerene serves as a photosensitizer or a medicine carrier during the preparation of medicines curing cancers.

Method and substance for obtaining surfaces with antimicrobial properties

The present invention involves the use of photosensitizers to provide antibacterial surfaces on consumer and industrial items. This approach avoids the used of chemicals and solutions that may be toxic. The inventions also avoids the use of chemical compositions that might form degradation products which may be unacceptable to healthy persons or irritating to persons who may have allergies or are otherwise sensitized. According to the invention, photosensitizers with specific properties and specific design features are selected to make practical use of photosensitizers in the consumer and industrial market place. It is important to select a photosensitizer with an activation spectrum that is matched to the environmental conditions under which the surface to be protected is required to exhibit its antimicrobial properties. This means that the illumination energy and intensity levels expected need to yield enough singlet oxygen to destroy the targeted microbes. It is also possible to select photosensitizers that are activated only by wavelengths prominently present in certain illumination lamps, such as those lamps commonly present in a laboratories, medical offices, pharmacies and food service areas, thereby making the surfaces antimicrobial only on demand when the illumination lamps are turned on.
