Abstract
The increasing tolerance to currently used fungicides in both clinical and agricultural areas is of great concern. The nonconventional light-based approach of antimicrobial photodynamic treatment (APDT) is a promising alternative to conventional fungicides. We evaluated the effects of APDT with four phenothiazinium derivatives (methylene blue [MB], new methylene blue N [NMBN], toluidine blue O [TBO], and the novel pentacyclic phenothiazinium photosensitizer [PS] S137) on conidia of three fungal species (Colletotrichum acutatum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, and Aspergillus nidulans). The efficacy of APDT with each PS was determined, initially, based on photosensitizer MICs. Additionally, the effects of APDT with two selected PSs (NMBN and S137) on survival of conidia were evaluated. The subcellular localization of the PS in C. acutatum conidia was determined. The effects of photodynamic treatments on leaves of the plant host Citrus sinensis were also investigated. APDT with S137 showed the lowest MIC. MICs for S137 were 5 μM for the three fungal species when a fluence of 25 J cm(-2) was used. APDT with NMBN (50 μM) and S137 (10 μM) resulted in a reduction in the survival of the conidia of all species of approximately 5 logs w...Continue Reading
