Abstract
Photochemical generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) often relies on homogenous systems; however, a dissolved photosensitizer (PS) may be unsuitable for some applications because it is difficult to recover, expensive to replenish, and hazardous to the environment. Isolation of the PS onto a solid support can overcome these limitations, but implementation faces other challenges, including agglomeration of the solid PS, physical quenching of 1O2 by the support, photooxidation of the PS, and hypoxic environments. Here, we explore a superhydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (SH-PDMS) support coated with the photosensitizer 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)-21H,23H-porphyrin (TFPP). This approach seeks to address the challenges of a heterogeneous system by using a support that exhibits low 1O2 physical quenching rates, a fluorinated PS that is chemically resistant to photooxidation, and a superhydrophobic surface that entraps a layer of air, thus preventing hypoxia. Absorbance and fluorescence spectroscopy reveal the monomeric arrangement of TFPP on SH-PDMS surfaces, a surprising but favorable characteristic for a solid-phase PS on 1O2 yields. We also investigated the effect of incident wavelength on 1O2 yields for TFPP in aqueous solution and immobilized on SH-PDMS and found overall yields to be dependent on the absorption coefficient, while the yield per absorbed photon exhibited wavelength independence, in accordance with Kasha-Vavilov's rule.

Membrane-anchoring selenophene viologens for antibacterial photodynamic therapy against periodontitis via restoring subgingival flora and alleviating inflammation. Biomaterials 2024; 307:122536.

Abstract
Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has emerged as a promising strategy for treating periodontitis. However, the weak binding of most photosensitizers to bacteria and the hypoxic environment of periodontal pockets severely hamper the therapeutic efficacy. Herein, two novel oxygen-independent photosensitizers are developed by introducing selenophene into viologens and modifying with hexane chains (HASeV) or quaternary ammonium chains (QASeV), which improve the adsorption to bacteria through anchoring to the negatively charged cell membrane. Notably, QASeV binds only to the bacterial surface of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum due to electrostatic binding, but HASeV can insert into their membrane by strong hydrophobic interactions. Therefore, HASeV exhibits superior antimicrobial activity and more pronounced plaque biofilm disruption than QASeV when combined with light irradiation (MVL-210 photoreactor, 350-600 nm, 50 mW/cm2), and a better effect on reducing the diversity and restoring the structure of subgingival flora in periodontitis rat model was found through 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis. The histological and Micro-CT analyses reveal that HASeV-based aPDT has a better therapeutic effect in reducing periodontal tissue inflammation and alveolar bone resorption. This work provides a new strategy for the development of viologen-based photosensitizers, which may be a favorable candidate for the aPDT against periodontitis.

Abstract
Limited options exist for treatment of periodontitis; scaling and root planing (SRP) are not sufficient to eradicate P. gingivalis and the resulting inflammatory disease. Chlorhexidine (CHX), used as an adjuvant to SRP, may reduce bacterial loads but leads to pain and staining, while evidence for its efficacy is lacking. Antibiotics are effective but can lead to drug-resistance. The rising concern of antibiotic resistance limits the future use of this treatment approach. This study evaluates the efficacy of a novel superhydrophobic (SH) antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) device as an adjuvant to SRP for the treatment of periodontitis induced in a Wistar rat in vivo model relative to CHX. The SH-aPDT device comprises an SH silicone rubber strip coated with verteporfin photosensitizer (PS), sterilized, and secured onto a tapered plastic optical fiber tip connected to a red diode laser. The superhydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) strips were fabricated by using a novel soluble template method that creates a medical-grade elastomer with hierarchical surface roughness without the use of nanoparticles. Superhydrophobicity minimizes direct contact of the PS-coated surface with bacterial biofilms. Upon insertion of the device tip into the pocket and energizing the laser, the device generates singlet oxygen that effectively targets and eliminates bacteria within the periodontal pocket. SH-aPDT treatment using 125 J/cm2 of red light on three consecutive days reduced P. gingivalis significantly more than SRP-CHX controls (p < 0.05). Clinical parameters significantly improved (p < 0.05), and histology and stereometry results demonstrated SH-aPDT to be the most effective treatment for improving healing and reducing inflammation, with an increase in fibroblast cells and extracellular matrix and a reduction in vascularization, inflammatory cells, and COX-2 expression. The SH-aPDT approach resulted in complete disease clearance assessed 30 days after treatment initiation with significant reduction of the periodontal pocket and re-formation of the junctional epithelium at the enamel-cementum junction. PS isolation on a SH strip minimizes the potential for bacteria to develop resistance, where the treatment may be aided by the oxygen supply retained within the SH surface.

Abstract
Biofilm of oral pathogenic microorganisms induced by their multiplication and coaggregation would lead to periodontitis. In biofilms, the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) as a protective shield encapsulates the individual bacteria, protecting them against attack. To alleviate periodontal disease, disrupting the EPS of pathogenic bacteria is crucial and challenging. Based on the sufficient capacity of disorganizing EPS of our designed cationic dextrans, we hypothesized that these polymers could be competent in relieving periodontitis. We validated that cationic dextrans could induce the phase transition of EPS in biofilms, especially the Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), a keystone periodontal pathogen, thus effectively destroying biofilm in vitro. More importantly, satisfactory in vivo treatment was achieved in a rat periodontal disease model. In summary, the study exploited a practical and effective strategy to treat periodontitis with cationic dextrans' powerful biofilm-controlling potential. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Periodontal disease is closely related to dental plaque biofilms on the tooth surface. The biofilm forms gel structures and shields the bacteria underneath, thus protecting oral pathogens from traditional anti-bacterial reagents. Due to limited penetration into gel, the efficacy of these reagents in biofilm elimination is restricted. Our designed cationic dextran could wipe out the coverage of gel-like EPS to disperse encapsulated bacteria. Such superior capacity endowed them with satisfactory effect in disrupting biofilm. Notably, in a rat periodontitis model, cationic dextrans dramatically suppressed alveolar bone loss and alleviated periodontal inflammation by controlling dental plaque. Given the increasing global concerns about periodontal disease, it's worth expanding the application of cationic dextrans both scientifically and clinically.

Abstract
The interaction of light with natural matter leads to a plethora of photosensitized reactions. These reactions cause the degradation of biomolecules, such as DNA, lipids, proteins, being therefore detrimental to the living organisms, or they can also be beneficial by allowing the treatment of several diseases by photomedicine. Based on the molecular mechanistic understanding of the photosensitization reactions, we propose to classify them in four processes: oxygen-dependent (type I and type II processes) and oxygen-independent [triplet-triplet energy transfer (TTET) and photoadduct formation]. In here, these processes are discussed by considering a wide variety of approaches including time-resolved and steady-state techniques, together with solvent, quencher, and scavenger effects. The main aim of this survey is to provide a description of general techniques and approaches that can be used to investigate photosensitization reactions of biomolecules together with basic recommendations on good practices. Illustration of the suitability of these approaches is provided by the measurement of key biomarkers of singlet oxygen and one-electron oxidation reactions in both isolated and cellular DNA. Our work is an educational review that is mostly addressed to students and beginners.

Abstract
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising approach to control biofilms involved in periodontal diseases. However, certain challenges, such as staining of teeth, preferential interaction of photosensitizer (PS) with Gram-positive versus Gram-negative bacteria, and insufficient oxygen in hypoxic periodontal pockets have presented barriers to its use in the clinic. To overcome these challenges, a novel superhydrophobic (SH) film that generates airborne singlet oxygen has been developed. The SH-aPDT approach isolates the PS onto a topologically rough solid SH film on which channels allow air to diffuse to the PS surface, thus ensuring sufficient oxygen supply. Upon illumination, gas phase singlet oxygen (1O2) is produced and diffuses from the SH surface to the underlying biofilm. The killing efficacy was assessed as a function of transmitted fluence (17.9-89.5 J/cm2) and chorin e6 loading (96-1110 nmol/cm2) by counting of colony forming units, biofilm metabolism by XTT and confocal microscopy. The decrease in viability of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in a multi-species biofilm was found to be linearly dependent on the fluence as well as the loading of the PS up to 71.6 J/cm2 when 1110 nmols/cm2 of chlorin e6 was used. A > 4.6 log bacterial reduction was observed under these conditions (p < 0.05). This novel SH-aPDT approach shows promise as an effective method to disinfect multi-species bacterial biofilms associated with periodontal disease and will be evaluated in animal models in future studies.

Abstract
The emergence of drug-resistant bacteria is considered a critical public health problem. The need to establish alternative approaches to countering resistant microorganisms is unquestionable in overcoming this problem. Among emerging alternatives, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has become promising to control infectious diseases. aPDT is based on the activation of a photosensitizer (PS) by a particular wavelength of light followed by generation of the reactive oxygen. These interactions result in the production of reactive oxygen species, which are lethal to bacteria. Several types of research have shown that aPDT has been successfully studied in in vitro, in vivo, and randomized clinical trials (RCT). Considering the lack of reviews of RCTs studies with aPDT applied in bacteria in the literature, we performed a systematic review of aPDT randomized clinical trials for the treatment of bacteria-related diseases. According to the literature published from 2008 to 2022, the RCT study of aPDT was mostly performed for periodontal disease, followed by halitosis, dental infection, peri-implantitis, oral decontamination, and skin ulcers. A variety of PSs, light sources, and protocols were efficiently used, and the treatment did not cause any side effects for the individuals.

Abstract
The spreading of different infections can occur through direct contact with glass surfaces in commonly used areas. Incorporating the use of alternative therapies in these materials seems essential to reduce and also avoid bacterial resistance. In this work, the capability to kill microbes of glass surfaces coated with two electroactive metalated phthalocyanines (ZnPc-EDOT and CuPc-EDOT) is assessed. The results show that both of these materials are capable of producing reactive oxygen species; however, the polymer with Zn(II) (ZnPc-PEDOT) has a singlet oxygen quantum yield 8-fold higher than that of the Cu(II) containing analogue. This was reflected in the in vitro experiments where the effectiveness of the surfaces was tested in bacterial suspensions, monitoring single microbe inactivation upon attachment to the polymers, and eliminating mature biofilms. Furthermore, we evaluated the use of an inorganic salt (KI) to potentiate the photodynamic inactivation mediated by an electropolymerized surface. The addition of the salt improved the efficiency of phototherapy at least two times for both polymers; nevertheless, the material coated with ZnPc-PEDOT was the only one capable of eliminating >99.98% of the initial microbes loading under different circumstances.

Abstract
The emergence of multi-drug-resistant pathogens threatens the healthcare systems world-wide. Recent advances in phototherapy (PT) approaches mediated by photo-antimicrobials (PAMs) provide new opportunities for the current serious antibiotic resistance. During the PT treatment, reactive oxygen species or heat produced by PAMs would react with the cell membrane, consequently leaking cytoplasm components and effectively eradicating different pathogens like bacteria, fungi, viruses, and even parasites. This Perspective will concentrate on the development of different organic photo-antimicrobials (OPAMs) and their application as practical therapeutic agents into therapy for local infections, wound dressings, and removal of biofilms from medical devices. We also discuss how to design highly efficient OPAMs by modifying the chemical structure or conjugating with a targeting component. Moreover, this Perspective provides a discussion of the general challenges and direction for OPAMs and what further needs to be done. It is hoped that through this overview, OPAMs can prosper and will be more widely used for microbial infections in the future, especially at a time when the global COVID-19 epidemic is getting more serious.

Abstract
Heavy atom-free triplet photosensitizers (PSs) are particularly of interest concerning both fundamental photochemistry study and practical applications. However, achieving efficient intersystem crossing (ISC) in planar heavy atom-free aromatic organic compounds is challenging. Herein, we demonstrate that two perylenebisimide (PBI) derivatives with anthryl and carbazole moieties fused at the bay position, showing twisted π-conjugation frameworks and red-shifted UV-vis absorption as compared to the native PBI chromophore (by 75-1610 cm-1), possess efficient ISC (singlet oxygen quantum yield: ΦΔ = 85%) and a long-lived triplet excited state (τT = 382 μs in fluid solution and τT = 4.28 ms in solid polymer film). Femtosecond transient absorption revealed ultrafast intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) process in the twisted PBI derivatives (0.9 ps), and the ISC takes 3.7 ns. Pulsed laser excited time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance (TREPR) spectra indicate that the triplet-state wave function of the twisted PBIs is mainly confined on the PBI core, demonstrated by the zero-field-splitting D parameter. Accordingly, the twisted derivatives have higher T1 energy (ET1 = 1.48-1.56 eV) as compared to the native PBI chromophore (1.20 eV), which is an advantage for the application of the derivatives as triplet PSs. Theoretical computation of the Franck-Condon density of states, based on excited-state dynamics methods, shows that the efficient ISC in the twisted PBI derivatives is due to the increased spin-orbit coupling matrix elements for the S1-T1 and S1-T2 states [spin-orbit coupling matrix element (SOCME): 0.11-0.44 cm-1. SOCME is zero for native PBI], as well as the Herzberg-Teller vibronic coupling. For the planar benzoPBI, the moderate ISC is due to S1 → T2 transition (SOCME: 0.03 cm-1. The two states share a similar energy, ca. 2.5 eV).

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment modality in which a photosensitizer is irradiated with light, producing reactive oxygen species, often via energy transfer with oxygen. As it is common for tumors to be hypoxic, methods to deliver photosensitizer and oxygen are desirable. One such approach is the use of perfluorocarbons, molecules in which all C-H bonds are replaced with C-F bonds, to co-deliver oxygen because of the high solubility of gases in perfluorocarbons. This review highlights the benefits and limitations of several fluorinated nanomaterial architectures for use in PDT.

Abstract
This review describes nanoparticle and dye diffusion in bacterial biofilms in the context of antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI). aPDI requires the diffusion of a photosensitizer (Sens) into the biofilm and subsequent photoactivation of oxygen for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that inactivate microbes. Molecular diffusion in biofilms has been long investigated, whereas this review is intended to draw a logical link between diffusion in biofilms and ROS, a combination that leads to the current state of aPDI and superhydrophobic aPDI (SH-aPDI). This review should be of interest to photochemists, photobiologists and researchers in material and antimicrobial sciences as is ties together conventional aPDI with the emerging subject of SH-aPDI.

Abstract
Zinc(II) bis(dipyrrin) complexes, which feature intense visible absorption and efficient symmetry breaking charge transfer (SBCT) are outstanding candidates for photovoltaics but their short lived triplet states limit applications in several areas. Herein we demonstrate that triplet excited state dynamics of bis(dipyrrin) complexes can be efficiently tuned by attaching electron donating aryl moieties at the 5,5'-position of the complexes. For the first time, a long lived triplet excited state (τT =296 μs) along with efficient ISC ability (ΦΔ =71 %) was observed for zinc(II) bis(dipyrrin) complexes, formed via SBCT. The results revealed that molecular geometry and energy gap between the charge transfer (CT) state and triplet energy levels strongly control the triplet excited state properties of the complexes. An efficient triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion system was devised for the first time using a SBCT architecture as triplet photosensitizer, reaching a high upconversion quantum yield of 6.2 %. Our findings provide a blueprint for the development of triplet photosensitizers based on earth abundant metal complexes with long lived triplet state for revolutionary photochemical applications.

Abstract
Airborne singlet oxygen obtained from photosensitization of triplet dioxygen is shown to react with an alkene surfactant (8-methylnon-7-ene-1 sulfonate) leading to "ene" hydroperoxides that in the dark inactivate planktonic Escherichia coli (E. coli). The "ene" hydroperoxide photoproducts are not toxic on their own, but they become toxic after the bacteria are pretreated with singlet oxygen. The total quenching rate constant (kT) of singlet oxygen of the alkene surfactant was measured to be 1.1 × 106 M-1 s-1 at the air/liquid interface. Through a new mechanism called singlet oxygen priming (SOP), the singlet oxygen leads to hydroperoxides then to peroxyl radicals, tetraoxides, and decomposition products, which also promote disinfection, and therefore offer a "one-two" punch. This offers a strong secondary toxic effect in an otherwise indiscernible dark reaction. The results provide an insight into assisted killing by an exogenous alkene with dark toxicity effects following exposure to singlet oxygen.

Abstract
Background: Biofilm infection caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria is difficult to eradicate by conventional therapies. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective antibacterial method for fighting against biofilm infection. However, the blocked photosensitizers outside of biofilm greatly limit the efficacy of PDT. Methods: Herein, a novel acid-responsive superporogen and photosensitizer (SiO2-PCe6-IL) was developed. Because of the protonation of the photosensitizer and the high binding energy of the polyionic liquid, SiO2-PCe6-IL changed to positive SiO2-PIL+ in an acidic microenvironment of biofilm infection. SiO2-PIL+ could combine with negatively charged extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and create holes to remove the biofilm barrier. To strengthen the interaction between SiO2-PIL+ and EPS, SiO2-PIL+ of high charge density was prepared by grafting the high-density initiation site of ATRP onto the surface of the SiO2 base. Results: Due to the rapid protonation rate of COO- and the strong binding energy of SiO2-PIL+ with EPS, SiO2-PCe6-IL could release 90% of Ce6 in 10 s. With the stronger electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction of SiO2-PIL+ with EPS, the surface potential, hydrophobicity, adhesion and mechanical strength of biofilm were changed, and holes in the biofilm were created in 10 min. Combining with the release of photosensitizers and the porous structure of the biofilm, Ce6 was efficiently concentrated in the biofilm. The in vitro and in vivo antibacterial experiments proved that SiO2-PCe6-IL dramatically improved the PDT efficacy against MRSA biofilm infection. Conclusion: These findings suggest that SiO2-PCe6-IL could rapidly increase the concentration of photosensitizer in biofilm and it is an effective therapy for combating biofilm infection.

Abstract
Ru(II) complexes were synthesized with π-expanding (phenyl, fluorenyl, phenanthrenyl, naphthalen-1-yl, naphthalene-2-yl, anthryl and pyrenyl groups) attached at a 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline ligand and 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (4,4'-dmb) coligands. These Ru(II) complexes were characterized by 1D and 2D NMR, and mass spectroscopy, and studied for visible light and dark toxicity to human malignant melanoma SK-MEL-28 cells. In the SK-MEL-28 cells, the Ru(II) complexes are highly phototoxic (EC50 = 0.2-0.5 µm) and have low dark toxicity (EC50 = 58-230 µm). The highest phototherapeutic index (PI) of the series was found with the Ru(II) complex bearing the 2-(pyren-1-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline ligand. This high PI is in part attributed to the π-rich character added by the pyrenyl group, and a possible low-lying and longer-lived 3 IL state due to equilibration with the 3 MLCT state. While this pyrenyl Ru(II) complex possessed a relatively high quantum yield for singlet oxygen formation (Φ∆ = 0.84), contributions from type-I processes (oxygen radicals and radical ions) are competitive with the type-II (1 O2 ) process based on effects of added sodium azide and solvent deuteration.
