Zusammenfassung: | Background: Sonodynamic synergistic antitumor therapy is a promising new methodology for cancer treatment. Materials and Methods:
To determine the antitumor effects of ultrasound (US) in the presence of acridine orange (AO), 1.0 μg/ml solution of AO was
tested as a sonodynamic compound against sarcoma 180 cells in vitro. Results: After US irradiation at 2.0 W/cm 2 for 60 sec, the survival rate of tumor cells in the presence of AO was significantly lower than in its absence (p |
