Analysis of Fluoroquinolone-mediated Photosensitization of 2′-Deoxyguanosine, Calf Thymus and Cellular DNA: Determination of Type-I, Type-II and Triplet–Triplet Energy Transfer Mechanism Contribution

Fluoroquinolone (FQ) antibacterials are known to exhibit photosensitization properties leading to the formation of oxidative damage to DNA. In addition, photoexcited lomefloxacin (Lome) was recently shown to induce the formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers via triplet–triplet energy transfer. T...
