Abstract
There is growing interest in photodynamic therapy as a method for the local control of certain human neoplawv.1 New photosensitizers for this form of therapy are currently undergoing experimental evaluation2,3,q. We have found that the purpurins are effective in the control of several experimental animal systems -5 In order to determine the effect of the purpurins on normal tissue, rat footpad and jejunum at therapeutic light levels and murine skin under sunlight equivalence were studied.
