But because the photosensitizing cream leaves the skin vulnerable to sunlight, patients must avoid the sun for a day or two after each treatment.

Hydrochlorothiazide is a photosensitizing drug, meaning it can increase a person's sensitivity to sunlight.

Adult cuticles only transmitted 0.1–0.2% of the photosensitizing wavelengths.

Some drugs have a photosensitizing effect.

Depending on the part of the body being treated, the photosensitizing agent is either injected into the bloodstream or put on the skin.

The photosensitizing agents used in these ancient therapies have been characterised with modern science as belonging to the psoralen family of chemicals.

One such natural photosensitizing agent, lipofuscin, accumulates in the RPE with age.

Other photosensitizing drugs examined in the study, including one called nifedipine, increased the risk of lip cancer more than twofold in whites.

Cercosporin is a photosensitizing perylenequione plant toxin that absorbs light energy and converts it into a highly activated state.

The blue light (hexaminolevulinate fluorescence) cystoscopy involves instilling a photosensitizing agent, such as Cysview, into the bladder.

This susceptibility to light may be related to the highly transparent larval cuticle which transmitted over 60% of the photosensitizing wavelengths (540–610 nm).

If you are adding any special substances to the fishes' feed or water, it would be wise to inquire about the possible photosensitizing properties of those chemicals.

During PUVA therapy, patients are given the photosensitizing drug psoralen and exposed to ultraviolet A light.

The photosensitizing agent preferentially accumulates porphyrins in malignant cells as opposed to nonmalignant cells of urothelial origin.

The light itself would have little effect on the cells if it wasn't for the addition of a photosensitizing agent which essentially makes the cells much more vulnerable to light.

J. Zuschrader, W. Schöfberger, and H. Falk: A carbohydrate-linked hypericinic photosensitizing agent.

Cercospora kikuchii is a fungal pathogen of soybean that produces a photosensitizing and phytotoxic polyketide, cercosporin, in culture and in planta.

Furthermore, they should be avoided in individuals with a history of HSV infection or keloids, and in those who are immunosuppressed or who are taking photosensitizing medications.

Because it has photosensitizing properties (which makes the skin more sensitive to UV light), it can promote sunburn, and sunbathing should be avoided after significant use for up to 12 hours.

The skin is painted with a photosensitizing acid, which is activated with light; a chemical reaction destroys abnormalities in skin — removing both visible AKs and precancer cells.

This new photosensitizing compound utilizing IRDye 700DX NHS Ester was referred to as "mAb-IR700 conjugates".

"However, physicians prescribing photosensitizing drugs should ascertain whether patients are at high risk of lip cancer because of their fair skin and long-term sun exposure, and discuss lip protection with them," the researchers said.

The photosensitizing action of 7-phenylhepta-2,4,6-triyne (PHT), a polyacetylenic compound isolated from Bidens pilosa L. (Asteraceae), has been studied using Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the test organisms.

Alpha terthienyl (α-T), an allelopathic polyacetylene derivative occurring in the Asteraceae, was examined for its photosensitizing effect on respiration in Chlorella and photosynthesis in Chlorella and isolated spinach chloroplasts.

It is frequently mistaken for hereditary conditions such as atopic dermatitis or chemical burns, but it is caused by contact with the photosensitizing compounds found naturally in some plants and vegetables like parsnips, citrus fruits, and more.
