Targeting the Dynamic Susceptibility Window: Time‐Sensitive Photodynamic Synergy With Antibiotics Against Streptococcus spp
The study highlights that optimal timing of PDI application is key to maximizing its synergistic effects with antibiotics, revealing that PDI is most effective when applied during specific stages of bacterial response to antibiotic stress, potentially redefining adjuvant treatment strategies.
