Popis: Photodithazine, a glucosamine salt of chlorin e 6, is highly effective in sensitization of Candida guilliermondii cells to visible light. The sensitizing effect of photodithazine was found to be related to free or cell surface–bound molecules of this dye. Sodium azide (a singlet oxygen quencher) and propyl gallate (an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation) protected yeast cells from the photodithazine-enhanced photoinactivation.
