PHOTODYNAMIC ANTI-GRAM-POSITIVE BACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF PHARMACEUTICAL-GRADE ROSE BENGAL

This invention contemplates combined use of a rose bengal (RB ) derivative with irradiation of bacteria with light to treat and kill the irradiated bacteria. In one aspect, Gram-positive bacteria are treated in a method in which the bacteria are contacted with an aqueous pharmaceutical composition containing a rose bengal (RB ) compound of Formula I, discussed within, dissolved or dispersed therein at about 0. 2 to about 3. 1 μg/mL. Those contacted bacteria are contacted with light of the wavelength about 500 nm to about 600 nm for a time period of about 1 to about 10 minutes to provide a light dose of about 0. 7 to about 7. 2 J/cm2 . A similar method is contemplated for treating Gram-negative bacteria that are one or more of Burkholderia, Salmonella, and Proteus using an aqueous pharmaceutical composition containing about 2 to about 15 μM concentration of the RB compound..
