Cellulose, a cheap and abundant biomaterial, leads to photosensitizing biohybrids through the immobilization of cationic phthalocyanine dyes onto the surface of cellulose nanocrystals. These biohybrids are efficient and broad‐spectrum photoantimicrobial agents against opportunistic fungal pathogens, Gram‐positive, and Gram‐negative bacteria.
