Photodynamic Inactivation of Herpes Simplex Viruses
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections can be treated with direct acting antivirals like acyclovir and foscarnet, but long-term use can lead to drug resistance, which motivates research into broadly-acting antivirals that can provide a greater genetic barrier to resistance.Photodynamic Mens Sandals inactivation (PDI) employs a photosensitizer, light
