Antimicrobial photodynamic inhibition (aPI) utilizes radical stress generated from the excitation of a photosensitizer (PS) with light to destroy pathogens. Its use against Trichophyton rubrum, dermatophytic fungus increasing incidence and resistance, has not been well characterized. Our aim was evaluate mechanism action aPI T. rubrum using curcumin as PS in both free nanoparticle (curc-np) form. Nanocarriers stabilize allow for enhanced solubility delivery. Curcumin aPI, at optimal...
