Abstract
Using bacterial model systems, it was shown that the addition of the soluble compound sodium salt of cobalt octacarboxyphthalocyanine (teraphtal) to a medium reduced the proportion of bacteria that survived in an ultrasonic field. It was hypothesized that in the bacterial environment teraphtal forms a solid phase that under exposure to an ultrasonic field destroys the structures that are adjacent to the nanocrystals due to local cavitation processes.
