Abstract
- A report from the Federal University of Santa Maria in Brazil discusses new research on the in vitro antimicrobial photo-inactivation of foodborne microorganisms using tetra-cationic porphyrins. The study found that one specific porphyrin, 4MeTPyP, exhibited the highest efficiency in inhibiting bacterial growth within 60 minutes at low concentrations. The research also conducted atomic force microscopy analyses and dynamic simulations to better understand the interaction between the porphyrin and the bacterial strain's membrane. This research has been peer-reviewed and provides valuable insights into potential methods for combating foodborne diseases. [Extracted from the article]
