Biochem/physiol Actions

Acridine Yellow G (AYG) is an organic dye with photophysical properties. It is widely used in optics, medicine and photovoltaic cells. AYG has been used as a solar photocatalyst to increase biodegradability and remove ferulic acid, a target pollutant from wastewater. It retards the growth of glioblastoma via dual inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor and protein kinase c kinases.

Commercial samples of acridine yellow, all labeled C.I. 46025, have been analyzed by thin layer chromatography, UV and visible light spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and photodynamic efficiency in the inactivation of bacteriophage phi X174. Three types of sample were clearly delineated:
Acridine yellow as solar photocatalyst for enhancing biodegradability and eliminating ferulic acid as model pollutant
