2 2 Common Methods in Microbial Control Prescott Microbiology 2008.

3 3 Antimicrobial Methods Chemotherapy Heavy metal Chemical agents Antibiotics Peptides Resistance! Photodynamic action

4 4 Photodynamic Therapy

5 5 Photodynamic Mechanism Nature reviews cancer, 2003 (3) 380-7

6 6 Photosensitizers (PS) Characteristics Selective adsorption or binding by cancer cells Different rates of metabolism between normal and cancer cells Excitation by an appropriate wavelength PS Porphyrins Cyanine dyes quinones

7 Photosensitizers (PS) 7 J Dent Res. 86(11): 1126, 2007.

8 8 Active oxygen Ref : Malik et al. 1990

9 9 Photosensitizers -Aminolaevulinic acid (ALA): Endogenous Merocyanine 540 (MC 540): Exogenous PpIX ALA

10 10 Light Small range of wavelength White light Halogen lamp LED (Light Emitting Diode) Laser (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation )

11 LED used for PDT 11

12 12 Why PDT Promising on Biofilm Control? Interact with cells only No adsorption or neutralization by EPS MW is generally small Less transport limitation Binding to cells Not related to physiology Already exist in cells Less chance to induce resistant strains

13 13 Biofilm Resistance Mechanism

14 Planktonic cells: S. aureus Relation between antimicrobial activity and excitation level of MC 540 Survival fraction (log (N/N0) : 1-fold : 2-fold : 5-fold : 10-fold Excitation level of MC 540 (ug/10 8 cells) Light dose (J/cm )

15 2 15 Planktonic cells: S. aureus MC540-mediated PDT on antimicrobial activity and excitation level of MC540 Survival fraction (log (N/N0)) : 0 µg/ml : 5 µg/ml : 10 µg/ml : 15 µg/ml : 20 µg/ml Excitationof MC 540 (ug/10 8 cells) Light dose (J/cm 2 )

16 16 Hypothesis A threshold value of photosensitizer excited is required to reach complete kill.

17 Biofilm Apparatus 17

26 26 Regrowth after antimicrobial treatment Regrowth (recovery) A rapid resumption of biofilms after antimicrobial treatment was terminated. The remaining biofilms contain enough viable organisms. The residual biofilm enhances transport and sorption of microbial cells and other compounds to the surface. Some oxidizing antimicrobial agents preferentially removes EPS and not biofilm cells. EPS is rapidly created by surviving organisms.
