Prior to therapy, a high PpIX fluorescence was observed in three patients; however, after iPDT, this fluorescence was entirely photobleached. These patients' viable tumor sections had high PpIX concentrations (mean PpIX uptake per tumor: 1.4-3.0 M).
<h3>Briefing:</h3>
However, no or just minimal PpIX uptake (0-0.6 M) could be seen in the remaining two cases. Strong PpIX uptake patients demonstrated therapeutic response and long-term clinical stabilization (no progression at 29, 30, and 36 months); the remaining two patients experienced early treatment failure (death after 3 and 9 months).
<h3>Describe fluorescence:</h3>
Two steps make up the chemical process of fluorescence first, a chemical fluorophore such a protein or carotenoid absorbs shorter-wavelength light (excitation), and then some of the absorbed energy is released as longer-wavelength light (emission).

Answer: reproductive, endocrine, and nervous systems
- Hormones provide feedback to the brain to affect neural processing. Reproductive hormones affect the development of the nervous system. The hypothalamus controls the pituitary gland and other endocrine glands.
None of the above because they are non pollutant
Oh this is easy.
Astronomy is the branch
A DNA sequence can be compared between two different organisms to determine their relationship.
