  • Abstract
    In this study, we performed in vitro evaluation of the dark and light toxicity of a third-generation photosensitizer (PS), a biocompatible magnetic fluid (BMFs), and the BMF/PS complex using the J774-A cell line. The BMFs used is based on maghemite nanoparticles surface-coated with phosphate whereas for photosensitizer the Chlorine e6 (Chle6) was employed.
