Photodynamic therapy is presented as a promising clinical option for the treatment of tumors, viruses and bacteria through the use of nontoxic photosensitizers. When the phthalocyanine is combined with visible light, have advantageous on the photophysical properties presenting high absorption in the red light spectrum range. Avian Spirochetosis is an acute and septicemic disease, caused by the bacterium Borrelia anserina, transmitted by Argas miniatus and can lead to death. The disease has great economic importance to the poultry industry, because this causes a high mortality in aviculture. The study had as objective to determine the serum infested with Borrelia anserina, treated using visible light associated with chloro-aluminum phthalocyanine, when inoculated in vivo, is capable of causing illness, and when in vitro, retains its capacity for growth amid Barbour-Stoenner-Kelly. Were used 11 chicken serum donors parasitized and 42 receiving chickens, in seven separate experimental groups, in vivo and in vitro for both steps. Control group, parasitized disease group B. anserina, immunosuppression group, light group visible, nanoemulsion group, phthalocyanine group and treated group conducted with visible light associated with emulsion chloro-aluminum phthalocyanine. Follow-up was conducted every five days, for 45 days after inoculation with conducting clinical examination, spirochetemia, quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Immunoglobulin Y dosage, cholesterol, triglycerides, alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, Globular volume and plasma total protein. It was concluded that visible light association and chloro-aluminum phthalocyanine has a favorable effect on the control of the disease, reduction in parasite burden and mortality rate
