“…However, impurities in the hypericin extract, possible chemical reactions between hypericin and SOSG agent and/or formation of hypericin aggregates may have been causative. Because mTHPC is embedded in liposomes, photosensitizer aggregation or chemical reactions with SOSG agent are less possible as reported for mTHPC in solution . Singlet oxygen generation and therewith related Foslipos ® fast relaxation to the ground state coupled with photosensitizer photo‐stability may have allowed the continuous SOSG fluorescence increase.…”

“…Photodegradation of mTHPC in solution, in vitro and in vivo, has been well documented (Ma et al, 1994b;Belitchenko et al, 1998;Rezzoug et al, 1998). Reducing agents can modulate photosensitizer photobleaching (Spikes, 1992).…”

“…Belichenko [109] reportou que após prolongados tempos de incubação ocorre uma tendência dos monômeros se agregarem em grandes agregados (diminuição da fluorescência na membrana plasmática), dificultando a formação do estado triplete e consequentemente reduzindo a eficiência quântica de formação do oxigênio singlete [49,109].…”

“…Pode se dizer de acordo com a literatura que somente monômeros e dímeros são capazes de gerar FS no estado triplete gerando oxigênio singlete responsável pelo dano fotodinâmico [49,109].…”
