Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2005054217A1] A phenothiazinium compound of Formula (I) for use as an antimicrobial agent for the prevention of microbial infections wherein: Rl, R2, R3 and R4 each independently is an optionally substituted linear, branched or cyclic hydrocarbon group;or Rl and R2 or R3 and R4 together with the N atom to which they are attached form an optionally substituted 5-, 6- or 7- membered ring; X<P-> is a counteranion; and P is 1, 2 or 3. The invention also relates to compositions comprising phenothiazinium. compounds, to selected compounds and their use as medicaments, as PDT agents, as photodiagnostic agents, to a conjugate or composite formed between a phenothiazinium. and a polymer; and to a method for sterilising fluids in which the fluid is passed over the conjugate or composite whilst it is illuminated. The compounds are biologically active photosensitisers which are strongly photocytotoxic and have application in the areas of photodynamic therapy (PDT), as well as for the diagnosis and detection of medical conditions and related uses in photochemical internalisation, in the production of cancer vaccines, in the treatment and prevention of microbial infections and in photodisinfection or photosterilisation.
