In this proposal we shall continue our efforts to generate cutting-edge science where fundamental and applied research will advance together in the field of optics. Our research program comprises three main thrusts: cold-matter physics, plasmonics and biophotonics, fields that linked by a common theme of light matter interaction. In parallel we shall advance fundamental understanding and …
Antimicrobial Photodynamic (aPDT) and Sonodynamic (SDT) therapies have been investigated as alternative methods for inactivating microorganisms. These treatments are based on the application of a sensitizer, which is activated by a light (aPDT) or an ultrasound (SDT), and are capable of generating reactive oxygen species that are lethal to microorganisms. However, the combination of both …
Annually the number of patients waiting for a kidney transplant grows at a rate greater than the number of organs available. This disparity emphasizes the importance of maximum use of the donated organs. However, part of the organs originally destined for transplantation is discarded due to low quality and/or infection. Recent studies carried out by our research group CEPOF (from portugue…
Cancer is a disease caused by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a particular part of the body. Many types of Cancer exist and Skin Cancer is a major Cancer faced by Brazilian. Among the available treatments, Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a light induced chemoreaction process that utilizes a Photosensitizer (PS), activated when exposed to light at a specific wavelength, to indu…
The fluorescence spectra and fluorescence lifetime analysis in biological tissues has been presented as a technique of great potential for tissue characterization for diagnostic purposes. The main fluorophores are NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide), biomolecules involved in cellular respiration that may provide information on the metabolism of t…
