Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with
multiple drug resistance patterns is frequently isolated from
skin and soft tissue infections that are involved in chronic
wounds. Today, difficulties in the treatment of MRSA associated
infections have led to the development of alternative
approaches such as antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. This
study aimed to investigate photoinactivation with cationic
porphyrin derivative compounds against MRSA in in-vitro
conditions. In the study, MRSA clinical isolates with different
antibiotic resistance profiles were used. The newly synthesized
cationic porphyrin derivatives (PM, PE, PPN, and PPL) were used
as photosensitizer, and 655 nm diode laser was used as light
source. Photoinactivation experiments were performed by
optimizing energy doses and photosensitizer concentrations.
In photoinactivation experiments with different energy densities
and photosensitizer concentrations, more than 99% reduction
was achieved in bacterial cell viability. No decrease
in bacterial survival was observed in control groups. It was
determined that there was an increase in photoinactivation
efficiency by increasing the energy dose. At the energy dose
of 150 J/cm2 a survival reduction of over 6.33 log10 was observed
in each photosensitizer type. While 200 μM PM concentration
was required for this photoinactivation, 12.50 μM
was sufficient for PE, PPN, and PPL. In our study, antimicrobial
photodynamic therapy performed with cationic porphyrin
derivatives was found to have potent antimicrobial efficacy
against multidrug resistant S. aureus which is frequently
isolated from wound infections.

The aim of this study was to measure changes in the fluorescence
of Fusobacterium nucleatum interacting with Porphyromonas
gingivalis for excitation with blue light at 405-nm.
P. gingivalis was mono- and co-cultivated in close proximity
with F. nucleatum. The fluorescence of the bacterial colonies
was photographed using a QLF-D (Quantitative Light-induced
Fluorescence-Digital) Biluminator camera system with
a 405 nm light source and a specific filter. The red, green and
blue intensities of fluorescence images were analyzed using
the image analysis software. A fluorescence spectrometer was
used to detect porphyrin synthesized by each bacterium. F.
nucleatum, which emitted green fluorescence in single cultures,
showed intense red fluorescence when it was grown
in close proximity with P. gingivalis. F. nucleatum co-cultivated
with P. gingivalis showed the same pattern of fluorescence
peaks as for protoporphyrin IX in the red part of
the spectrum. We conclude that the green fluorescence of
F. nucleatum can change to red fluorescence in the presence
of adjacent co-cultured with P. gingivalis, indicating that
the fluorescence character of each bacterium might depend
on the presence of other bacteria.
