Structure and functions of Aggregation-Induced Emission-Photosensitizers in anticancer and antimicrobial theranostics

Photosensitizers with Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) can allow the efficient light-mediated generation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) based on their complex molecular structure, while interacting with living cells. They achieve better tissue targeting and allow penetration of different wavelen...
