A bivalent cationic dye enabling selective photo-inactivation against Gram-negative bacteria.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A piperazine-modified Crystal Violet was found to be able to selectively inactivate Gram-negative bacteria upon visible light irradiation but left Gram-positive bacteria less damaged, which can serve as a blueprint for the development of novel narrow-spectrum agents to replenish the current arsenal of photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT).

Novel Cationic Dye Based on Naphthalimide: Part 1: Synthesis, Characterization and Evaluation of Biology Efficacy as Antimicrobial Agent
In this paper, synthesis and antimicrobial properties of cationic dye were investigated. 4-acetylamino-N-2-aminomethylpyridine-1,8-naphthalimide was reacted with 1-bromobutane as the alkylating agent and a cationic dye was obtained. The final product was purified by column chromatography method. The chemical structure of the novel cationic dye and its intermediates was chracterisized by using F...
متن کاملCoating of glass with tetra-cationic porphyrin and its zinc compound used as photo- inactivation of bacteria
The meso-tetrakis (4-N, N, N-trimethylanilinium) porphyrin and its zinc compound deposited on glass slide at high temperature and at a pressure of 15 PSI were used as photo-inactivation surface. Also, the effect of two porphyrin compounds irradiated with tungsten lamp, on a Gram negative bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and a Gram positive bacterium, Bacillus subtilis was investigated.
متن کاملPreparation, characterization and Photo-inactivation of cellulose nanocrystals impregnated with meso-tetrakis(4-nitrophenyl)porphyrin
In this study, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) was prepared and meso-tetrakis(4-nitrophenyl)porphyrin (TNPP) was immobilized on it. The product was identified by techniques of UV-Vis, fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy (DRS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect of an amount of a loaded porphyrin comp...

The aim of this work is to compare the antimicrobial efficiency of aminolevulinic acid-based photosensitization (ALA-photo) and chlorophyllin-based photosensitization (CHL-photo) against Gram-positive Listeria monocytogenes and Gram-negative Salmonella enterica, to assess some quantitative inactivation parameters of their survival curves and to propose a strategy for their effective inactivatio...
متن کاملThe "Reversal," Neutralization, and Selectivity of Germicidal Cationic Detergents.
The reversal of the inhibitory action of antiseptics by substances showing a specific affinity for the inhibiting agent has been reported for many compounds, the most striking effect probably being the reversal of the action of mercurials by H2S, glutathione, sodium thioglycolate, etc. Valko and DuBois (1944) have reported that the germicidal action of cationic detergents against both gram-posi...
