Photoinactivation of bacterial and fungal planktonic/biofilm forms using the combination of a porphyrinic formulation with potassium iodide

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising approach against multidrug-resistant microorganisms. In this work, we accessed the photodynamic efficiency of an affordable formulation composed of five cationic porphyrins (FORM) and its combined effect with potassium iodide (KI) on a large s...
