Abstract

Transplantable rat tumours (sarcoma M-1, sarcoma 45, alveolar liver cancer PC-1 and Pliss' lymphosarcoma) were used to study chlorin e 6 accumulation in tumours and its photodynamic effect. Tumours were irradiated by krypton ion laser light (647 and 676 nm; 90 J cm −2) 15 min and 24 h after chlorin e 6 injection at doses of 5 and 10 mg kg −1. The relationship between some morphological peculiarities of these tumour strains, photosensitizer accumulation in tumours and their response to the photodynamic treatment is discussed.
