Dendritic near-IR absorbing zinc phthalocyanines for antimicrobial photodynamic therapy
Tetrahedron Letters, 56(23), 3541–3545.
Contributors: D. Muli*, n, M. Mayukh*, R. Ghiladi n & D. McGrath *
author keywords: Non-aggregated; Water soluble; Click chemistry; Singlet oxygen; Methylene blue
TL;DR:
Both ZnPcs showed negligible dark toxicity on bacteria and yeast with 10 μM 1a and 1b, and aggregation studies indicate that non-peripherally substituted 1b is significantly less aggregated in aqueous media than peripherally substitution 1a .
