Abstract

The invention relates to a method of photoeradication of cellular and acellular organisms including the steps of providing a surface acting agent in association with a cellular or acellular organism, the surface acting agent disorienting a membrane structure so that said membrane no longer functions as an effective osmotic barrier; providing a photosensitive material in association with the cellular or acellular organism; and applying light in association with the cellular or acellular organism to cause a disruption of the organism. The method according to the present invention may be utilized in invitro and invivo treatment protocols for infections, sterilization procedures, cancer cell eradication, virus and fungus eradication, spore eradication, and biofilm organism eradication. Additional aspects of the invention include particular combinations of photosensitive materials and surfactants for use in photodynamic therapies.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 13 May 2002 (13.05.02); original claims 1,15, 29, 36, 49, 60, 61, 71, 75, 80 and 87 amended; remaining claims unchanged (4 pages)]

comprising:
providing a surface acting agent in association with a cellular organism, said surface
acting agent having ionophoric properties and disorienting a cell membrane so that said cell
membrane no longer functions as an effective osmotic barrier;
providing a photosensitive material in association with the cellular organism, said photosensitive material being passed through the cell membrane and into the cell interior; and
applying light in association with the cellular organism thereby activating the
photosensitive material within the cell interior to cause a cellular disruption of the cellular
organism.
15. (amended) The method of cellular organism disruption of claim 1 wherein the
surface acting agent having ionophoric properties is selected from a group containing: an
anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant, and an amphoteric surfactant.
29. (amended) A method of photodynamic disruption of acellular organisms
comprising:
providing a surface acting agent in association with an acellular organism, said surface

organism so that said membrane no longer functions as an effective osmotic barrier;
providing a photosensitive material in association with the acellular organism, said photosensitive material being accumulated within the membrane and cytoplasm of the
acellular organism; and applying light in association with the acellular organism thereby activating the photosensitive material within the membrane and cytoplasm
to cause a disruption of the acellular organism.
36. (amended) The method of acellular organism disruption of claim 29 wherein the
surface acting agent having ionophoric properties is selected from a group containing: an

cellular or acellular organism, said photodynamic therapy utilizing a light source for a
photodynamic disruption of the pathogenic cellular or acellular organism, said kit comprising:
a surface acting agent adapted to be dispensed to the pathogenic organism, said
surface acting agent having ionophoric properties and disrupting a pathogenic organism membrane so that said membrane no longer functions as an effective osmotic barrier; and
a photosensitive material adapted to be dispensed to the pathogen organism, said
photosensitive material being passed through the pathogenic organism membrane and into the
pathogentic organism interior, whereby photosensitive material within the pathogenic
organism interior is reactive with light from the light source to result in a photodynamic
pathogenic organism disruption.
87. (amended) A kit assembly for potentiation of a photodynamic therapy of a
pathogenic organism, said photodynamic therapy utilizing a light source for a photodynamic
organism destruction, said kit assembly comprising:
a surface acting agent, said surface acting agent having ionophoric properties and
