Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death in the world. For a number of
neoplasms, the efficiency of conventional chemo-and radiation therapies is insufficient …

Porphyrins are promising materials for photodynamic therapy, but their low solubility and
aggregation in biological environments are still obstacles to surpass. In order to overcome …

A carbazolyl appended trans-pyridyl porphyrin (1) was synthesized and its dicationic form 2
was obtained by methylation of the pyridyl group. Copper and zinc complexes of porphyrin 2 …

Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of microorganisms has been used for the treatment of
bacterial infection. PDI is based on the combination of three non-toxic elements: a …

Photodynamic action has been used for diverse biomedical applications, such as treating a
broad range of bacterial infections. Based on the combination of light, dioxygen, and …

A new category of cationic meso-thiophenium porphyrins are introduced as possible
alternatives to the popular meso-pyridinium porphyrins. Combinations of cationic porphyrins …

The assessment of thiazolothiazoles (TzTz) as photosensitizers in photodynamic inactivation
(PDI) experiments is reported for the first time. Mono and dicationic TzTz derivatives were …
