Abstract
Due to the ability to induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) under light irradiation, ZnO nanoparticles show great potential in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Photo-triggered ROS production by ZnO nanoparticles and the resulting phototoxicity are efficient in killing cancer cells. This review highlights the recent exciting progress on the nanoscale ZnO-based photosensitizers (PSs) for PDT. Both the semplice ZnO nanoparticles as the...
