In vitro photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of pathogenic germs inducing onychomycosis.

    Onychomycosis is a fungal nail infection caused primarily by the dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton interdigitale or, less frequently, by molds like Aspergillus spp. and Scopulariopsis brevicaulis. Photodynamic treatment of onychomycosis is considered a promising future therapy to overcome the frequent failure of currently used antifungals. In this study, we tested the potential of three photosensitizers for photodynamic inactivation of the onychomycosis causing pathogens T. rubrum, T. interdigitale and S. brevicaulis. Photosensitizers used are 10,15,20-Tetrakis(1-methylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrintetra(p-toluenesulfonate) (TMPyP), 5,10,15-tris-(1-methylpyridinium-2-yl)corrolato-(trans-dihydroxo)phosphorus(V) (PCor
