Objective To evaluate the potential of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with blue light‐emitting diode (LED) 460 nm at 25, 50 and 100 J/cm2 using three concentrations of acai extracts (100, 40, and 10 mg/ml), in the proliferation and viability of head and neck tumor lines (SCC9). Methods Three groups of c...
