The increasing pathogenic bacteria resistance to antibiotics has led to the development of new alternatives to replace them. The Photodynamic Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (PACT) is one of the alternatives recently researched. Several associations between photosensitizer (PS) and light sources are used to inactivate different micro-organisms. The porphyrin derivatives have interesting features and are amongst the most investigated compounds in PACT, showing promising results. The light-emitting diode (LED) source presents advantages, since this device has been shown efficient against bacteria and is economically feasible. The present study investigated the photodynamic activity of different porphyrin derivatives/LED systems for application in PACT. The following porphyrin derivatives were used: 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-difluor-5-sulfonatophenyl) sodium porphyrinate, Na4[H2(TDFSPP)], 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-difluor-5-sulfonatophenyl) zinc (II) sodium porphyrinate, Na4[Zn(TDFSPP)]) and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl) manganese (III) sodium porphyrinate, Na4[Mn(TSPP)]. LED systems were used in different emission bands: orange, red, green and blue. The photodynamic activity of PS/LED systems were analyzed through the photobleaching test, photoxidation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein, uric acid and microbiological assay with ATCC and hospital Staphylococcus aureus strains. The results showed no significant photobleaching of porphyrin derivatives using LED as a light source. The PS/LED systems led to oxidation of the BSA protein and uric acid, except for the derivative Na4[Mn(TSPP)]. The photoxidation constant rate for Na4[H2(TDFSPP)]/green and blue LED, Na4[Zn(TDFSPP)]/green and blue LED systems, were close to the constant rate for drugs with application in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The uric acid test result indicated that compounds are capable of generating singlet oxygen. The Na4[H2(TDFSPP)]/blue LED system had a higher photodynamic activity against ATCC and hospital S. aureus strains. The results demonstrated that the systems under study present potential to be used in PDT and PACT.
