Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for inactivation of pathogens in fluids. Preferably the fluids contain blood or blood products and may include biologically active proteins. Preferred methods include the steps of adding an effective, non-toxic amount of a photosensitizer to a fluid and exposing the fluid to pulsed light, wherein the pulsed radiation emitting source emits radiation sufficient to activate the photosensitizer whereby pathogens are inactivated.
