Photoinactivation of the lipid-containing bacteriophage PM2 by visible light and cyanine dyes (carbo- and dicarbocyanines), aluminum phtalocyanine tetrasulfonate and methylene blue was studied. It was concluded that cyanine dye aggregates adsorbed on phage particles and oxygen are essential for phage photoinactivation.
