Synthetic Access to Tetracationic Benzoporphyrins and Their Role as Photosensitizers towards Gram-Negative <i>Escherichia coli</i>
Currently, world population faces an episode where bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics, and it is crucial to find alternatives and new molecules to fight these microorganisms. Photodynamic inactivation of microorganisms has been pointed out as an alternative to conventional therapies. Thi...
