Lethal photosensitization of wound-associated microbes using indocyanine green and near-infrared light

BACKGROUND: The increase in resistance to antibiotics among disease-causing bacteria necessitates the development of alternative antimicrobial approaches such as the use of light-activated antimicrobial agents (LAAAs). Light of an appropriate wavelength activates the LAAA to produce cytotoxic specie...
