Riboflavin increases the rate of bilirubin photodecomposition as much as 25-fold under aerobic conditions. In the absence of oxygen, bilirubin photodecomposition is virtually arrested, with or without riboflavin. It is proposed that singlet oxygen generated by the riboflavin triplet species is primarily responsible for the observed rate enhancement. The occurrence of similar photochemical reactions in vivo might provide a means for improving the efficiency of bilirubin phototherapy through systemic administration of appropriate agents.
