Photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficiency is affected by the nature of the binding between the photosensitizer and serum albumin. The kinetic interaction between two potential PDT dyes with bovine serum albumin was studied providing not only the rate constants but also demonstrating that the kinetic of the interaction of the two dyes is very different.
