PACT Photodynamic Therapy utilises the interaction of light with photosensitive agents to
produce an energy transfer and local chemical effect. Using this method, bacteria, viruses and
fungi can be effectively destroyed on the skin surface or nails.
When the PACT Fungal Nail Gel is exposed to a specific wavelength of light delivered by
PACTmed LED, it becomes activated from a `ground' to an `excited' state. As it returns to
the ground state, it releases energy, which is transferred to oxygen to generate reactive
oxygen species (ROS), such as singlet oxygen and free radicals. These ROS mediate cellular
toxicity and induce fungal cell death without affecting surrounding tissue whose cells are
impenetrable by the photo-sensitiser.
