Photodynamic inactivation of Penicillium chrysogenum conidia by cationic porphyrins.
This work reports the photophysical and biological evaluation of five cationic porphyrins as photosensitizers (PS) for the photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of Penicillium chrysogenum conidia. Two different cationic porphyrin groups were synthesized from 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)porphyrin and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin. The photostability and singlet oxygen generation st...
متن کاملCalorimetric determination of inactivation parameters of micro-organisms.
AIMS This study aimed to apply differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to evaluate the thermal inactivation kinetics of bacteria. METHODS AND RESULTS The apparent enthalpy (DeltaH) of Escherichia coli cells was evaluated by a temperature scan in a DSC after thermal pretreatment in the calorimeter to various temperatures between 56 and 80 degrees C. Conventional semilogarithmic survival curve ...
متن کاملThe photodynamic and non-photodynamic actions of porphyrins.
Porphyrias are a family of inherited diseases, each associated with a partial defect in one of the enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway. In six of the eight porphyrias described, the main clinical manifestation is skin photosensitivity brought about by the action of light on porphyrins, which are deposited in the upper epidermal layer of the skin. Porphyrins absorb light energy intensively ...
متن کاملBiogeography and Dispersal of Micro-organisms: A Review Emphasizing Protists
This review summarizes data on the biogeography and dispersal of bacteria, microfungi and selected protists, such as dinoflagellates, chrysophytes, testate amoebae, and ciliates. Furthermore, it introduces the restricted distribution and dispersal of mosses, ferns and macrofungi as arguments into the discussion on the postulated cosmopolitism and ubiquity of protists. Estimation of diversity an...
متن کاملIn vitro photodynamic inactivation of conidia of the phytopathogenic fungus Colletotrichum graminicola with cationic porphyrins.
Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is an efficient approach for the elimination of a series of microorganisms; however, PDI involving phytopathogenic filamentous fungi is scarce in the literature. In the present study, we have demonstrated the photoinactivating properties of five cationic meso-(1-methyl-4-pyridinio)porphyrins on conidia of the phytopathogen Colletotrichum graminicola. For this pur...
