The spectroscopic and photophysical properties of rose bengal (RB) encased in bovine
serum albumin (BSA) have been examined to evaluate the photosensitized generation of …

Rose bengal (RB) readily binds to human serum albumin (HSA). At low RB concentrations,
90% of the dye is associated to the protein (5 μM), This association takes place in specific …

Genetically encodable proteins that photosensitize the production of singlet oxygen, O 2 (a 1
Δ g), will play an increasingly important role in elucidating mechanisms of cellular processes …

When dissolved in a bulk solvent, bilirubin efficiently removes singlet molecular oxygen, O 2
(a 1 Δ g), through a combination of chemical reactions and by promoting the O 2 (a 1 Δ g)→ …

A quantitative (multistep) excitation-deactivation model of rose bengal (RB) has been
developed which includes energy and electron transfer to oxygen and the possibility of …

The influence of chitosan (CS) and amphiphilic polymers (AP: pluronic F108 and
polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)) on the photocatalytic activity of rose bengal (RB) in a model …

We have employed a combination of steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopic
techniques to explore the effect of protein binding on the photophysical and photochemical …

The kinetics of the rose bengal (RB)-promoted photodynamic action on tryptophan (trp) and
a series of tryptophan alkyl esters (methyl, butyl and octyl derivatives) was studied. The …

In the present investigation the interaction of a biologically active photodynamic therapeutic
agent Toluidine blue O (TBO) with Serum albumins viz Human serum albumin (HSA) and …

In this paper, the binding of neutral red (NR) to bovine serum albumin (BSA) under
physiological conditions has been studied by spectroscopy method including fluorescence …
