The singlet oxygen generation of a photosensitizer compound (PS) is an important property for photodynamic treatments. The PS quantum yield of O-1(2) (Phi(Delta)) is usually obtained by the time-resolved measurement of O-1(2) phosphorescence emission. However, the equipment employed is quite expensive. In the present study, the methodology previously proposed by us for Phi(Delta) dosimetry using uric acid (UA) as a chemical-probe was systematically evaluated. The PS photo-excitation was achieved with a polychromatic light source (LED) that generates O-1(2) which attacks the UA. The level of HA oxidation is proportional to a parameter called chemical photodynamic efficiency, which is correlated to Phi(Delta) by comparing it to a standard compound. The photobleaching reaction of the PS is considered in the calculation. Several parameters that influence this measurement have been investigated with different PS (phenothiazines, xanthenes, chlorins, and benzoporphyrin dyes) in water, ethanol, and aqueous P-123 polymeric surfactant. Excellent results were obtained when standard compounds belonging to the same class of the photosensitizer and the same solvent were used. The chemical method of 102 evaluation with HA is reliable, exact, precise, easy to perform and low cost, although limited by the standard compound employed as (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.
