A Critical Review on Antimicrobial Photodynamic Inactivation Using Light Emitting Diode (LED)

Abstract: The light-emitting diode (LED) is an advanced technology with a wide range of applications in our day-to-day life. It has numerous advantages over conventional light, such as controlling the spectrum of light, the specificity of the wavelength, cool emitting surface, and cost-effectiveness. The novel technologies and developments have proved the efficacy of LEDs in eliminating microbes rather than being an effective lighting source. The LED employs Photodynamic Inactivation to eliminate micro-organisms with th… Show more

“…This antimicrobial effect of LED light, also known as photodynamic inactivation, is due to the activity of endogenous photosensitizers that absorb visible light wavelengths for its activation to form reactive oxygen species, whose action results in biomolecules oxidation and cells lysis (Purushothaman and Mol., 2021). This is the case of porphyrins with blue light, whose antibacterial effect is well known in literature (Lipovsky et al, 2010;Maclean et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2017).…”

“…Recently, much research effort has been focused on the development of photodynamic inactivation technology that combines physical and chemical reactions to induce the death of targeted microorganisms, specifically antimicrobial photodynamic therapy as a promising nonthermal disinfection technology. is novel therapy has been reported to offer significant breakthroughs such as rapid inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms, effective elimination of the resistant strains, and even the biofilm-producing bacteria, which are often resistant to treatments [1][2][3].…”
