“…The investigations of absorption and fluorescence spectra of Bchl-Ser, as well as the level of blood oxygenation in tumor vessels, were carried out using spectra-analyzer "LESA-01-Biospec" ("Biospec", Russia) 7,8 . The semiconductor laser (775 nm) and He-Ne laser (633 nm) were used as a light source for investigations of fluorescence.…”

“…12,13 In living tissue, the blood oxygen level is a balance between arterial input and venous output, which are the parts of blood microcirculation supply system of tissue metabolism. 14 The photodynamic process causes damages microvasculature 15,16 and causes additional consumption of oxygen in the tissue and directly in the blood, thus shifting this balance. The decrease of blood oxygen saturation following PDT depends on irradiation photon density, photosensitizer type, its concentration in blood and surrounding tissue, and extent of blood microcirculation within the volume of light irradiation.…”

“…It is considered that destroying effect is mainly due to the formation of singlet oxygen resulting from the interaction of light excited photosensitizer with molecular oxygen (triplet state in the ground state). So the destroying effect will be proportional to the rate of singlet oxygen formation which is in turn depends on light intensity, photosensitizer concentration and molecular oxygen concentration [1].…”

So the destroying effect will be proportional to the rate of singlet oxygen formation which is in turn depends on light intensity, photosensitizer concentration and molecular oxygen concentration [1].Proper intensity of laser could determined by the measurement of propagation of light within normal and cancer tissues. For the effective PDT, we should controlled the value of photosensitizer, power density of laser and supplied oxygen to tissue.…”
