| Abstract |
Cancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the absorption of light by photosensitizers (PSs) to generate cytotoxic singlet oxygen for killing cancer cells. The success of this method is usually limited by the lack of selective accumulation of the PS at cancer cells. Bioengineered viruses with cancer cell-targeting peptides fused on their surfaces are great drug carriers that can guide the PS to cancer cells for targeted cancer treatment. Here, we use cell-targeting fd bacteriophages (phages) as an example to describe how to chemically conjugate PSs (e.g., pyropheophorbide-a (PPa)) onto a phage particle to achieve targeted PDT. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 June 2018.
All research outputs
#13,541,991
of 23,088,369 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#3,626
of 13,204 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#218,371
of 442,629 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#348
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,088,369 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,204 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,629 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its contemporaries.
