Antimicrobial photodynamic activity and cytocompatibility of Au(25)(Capt)(18) clusters photoexcited by blue LED light irradiation

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has beneficial effects in dental treatment. We applied captopril-protected gold (Au(25)(Capt)(18)) clusters as a novel photosensitizer for aPDT. Photoexcited Au clusters under light irradiation generated singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)). Accordingly, the antimicrobi...
