Photodynamic Action of Merocyanine 540 on Artificial and Natural Cell Membranes: Involvement of Singlet Molecular Oxygen

The photochemistry of merocyanine 540 (MC 540), a sensitizing dye that binds preferentially to leukemia and electrically excitable cells, has been investigated. MC 540-mediated photooxidation of histidine, arachidonate, and unsaturated phospholipid vesicles was assessed by spin label oximetry and sh...
