The photodynamic effect of toluidine blue (TB) was studied on MM virus cultivated in L cells and on the RNA extracted form MM virus inoculated to mice by intracerebral route. MM virus infectivity is completely inhibited by the photodynamic action of TB, due to lesions at the molecular level of the viral RNA.
