Abstract
⺠Dermatophytoses are among the most common and widespread infectious diseases worldwide. ⺠Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy is a promising alternative to conventional chemotherapy. ⺠Development of PACT depends on identifying effective PS for the different pathogenic species. ⺠PACT with the new MB derivatives S137 and NMBN was more effective than with MB and TBO. ⺠Complete fungal killing was achieved for both species.
