Description

Photodynamic Therapy: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology, 2451)

Photodynamic Therapy: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology, Volume 2451) is a comprehensive, laboratory-focused reference for researchers, clinicians, and biomedical scientists working in the rapidly growing field of photodynamic therapy (PDT). Now available in Pakistan through BooksHub.pk, this volume provides step-by-step experimental procedures for studying, optimizing, and applying PDT in cancer treatment, antimicrobial therapy, dermatological disorders, ophthalmology, and neurology.

Photodynamic Therapy is a light-activated treatment technique that combines photosensitizing agents, specific wavelengths of light, and oxygen to selectively destroy diseased cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. This book explains the molecular mechanisms, cellular responses, and therapeutic strategies behind PDT, emphasizing how to design experiments, evaluate treatment efficiency, and analyze biological outcomes with precision.

Each chapter adheres to the well-established Methods in Molecular Biology (MIMB) format, providing:

• Background and scientific rationale

• Materials and reagent lists

• Detailed, reproducible laboratory protocols

• Troubleshooting tips to avoid common errors

• Expert notes for improving data quality and experimental reliability

This volume includes methodologies for:

• Photosensitizer synthesis, modification, and bio-distribution studies

• Cell culture and 3D tumor spheroid models for PDT testing

• Imaging and quantification of cell death pathways

• Light delivery systems and dosimetry design

• In vivo PDT animal models for translational research

Ideal for MSc, MPhil, PhD researchers, medical sciences departments, oncology labs, pharmaceutical development groups, nanomedicine researchers, and biomedical engineering programs, this book supports both experimental research and clinical innovation.
