Multifunctional divalent vancomycin: the fluorescent imaging and photodynamic antimicrobial properties for drug resistant bacteria.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple and specific divalent vancomycin-porphyrin has been developed. This divalent vancomycin-porphyrin conjugate indicates promising properties in fluorescent imaging and photodynamic inactivation of vancomycin-sensitive and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) bacterial strains.

متن کاملA multifunctional nanoplatform based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles for imaging-guided chemo/photodynamic synergetic therapy
Multifunctional nanoplatforms based onmesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have recently shown great promise in drug delivery and therapy. Herein, a multifunctional nanoplatform based on MSNs is fabricated by a modified micro-emulsion method for drug delivery and imaging-guided chemo/photodynamic synergistic therapy. Carbon dots (C-dots) and a photosensitizer, rose bengal (RB), are embedded i...
متن کاملPhotosensitizer and vancomycin-conjugated novel multifunctional magnetic particles as photoinactivation agents for selective killing of pathogenic bacteria.
Novel multifunctional magnetic particles (MMPs) conjugated with photosensitizer and vancomycin were fabricated by surface modification of Fe(3)O(4) particles. The capacities to target, capture and inactivate pathogenic bacteria and good biocompatibility suggest that the MMPs have great potentials as photodynamic inactivation agents for serious bacterial contamination.
