Abstract:Introduction. Special attention has been recently paid to photosensitizers that absorb and fluoresce in the near infrared region of the spectrum. One of the most promising photosensitizers is bacteriosens, a synthetic bacteriochlorin derivative. Objective. To conduct a preclinical study of the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of bacteriosens in animals.Materials and methods. The active ingredient of bacteriosens is (meso-tetra(3-pyridyl)bacteriochlorin) with of λmax 747 nm). The biodistribution and pharmac… Show more
