Optimal discrimination threshold for the detection of singlet oxygen luminescence

چکیده
In this work, a near-infrared CCD-based singlet oxygen luminescence two-dimensional imaging method is proposed to detect singlet oxygen by its 1270nm luminescence. Two-dimensional singlet oxygen images with its near-infrared luminescence during photosensitization could be obtained with a CCD integration time of 1s, without scanning. The data presented shows a linear relationship between the singlet oxygen luminescence intensity and sample concentration. This method provides a detection sensitivity of 0.00189mg/ml (Hematoporphyrin monomethyl Ether dissolved in ethanol) and a spatial resolution better than 100μm. We applied this method in vivo to demonstrate its potential in monitoring photodynamic therapy.

متن کاملThe role of singlet oxygen and oxygen concentration in photodynamic inactivation of bacteria.
New antibacterial strategies are required in view of the increasing resistance of bacteria to antibiotics. One promising technique involves the photodynamic inactivation of bacteria. Upon exposure to light, a photosensitizer in bacteria can generate singlet oxygen, which oxidizes proteins or lipids, leading to bacteria death. To elucidate the oxidative processes that occur during killing of bac...

The interaction of singlet oxygen (O2) generated in a photosensitized process with well-known reference photosensitizers Perinaphthenone (PN) and TMPyP is investigated in a model system consisting of fatty acids and the respective exogenous photosensitizer (PS) in solution by direct detection of the luminescence photons of O2 at 1270 nm. Such a model system is a first approach to mimic the comp...
