In this study, 3-hydroxyethoxyphenyl-9(10), 16(17), 23 (24)-decyloxy-zinc phthalocyanine (HDPcZn) was first prepared by liquid phase catalysis, and then it esterified with Poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide) which have two carboxyl groups (TRIT-PNIPAM) at the end to obtain a linear thermoresponsive polymer (PcZn-PNIPAM-PcZn) phthalocyanines end. The characterized FT-IR, 1 H NMR, EDS UV-vis, photocatal...

In this study, new water-soluble non-peripheral tetra-substituted zinc complex of phthalocyanine which is contain galactose moieties was synthesized. ZnPc-I prepared from the substituted dicyano compound by cyclotetramerization reaction. This synthesized Click reaction between 3-(pent-4-yn-1-yloxy)phthalonitrile and 6-azido-6-deoxy1,2:3,4-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-galactopyranose. ZnPc-II obtaine...

BACKGROUND Iron fortification of foods is currently a strategy employed to fight iron deficiency in countries. Liposomes were assumed to be a potential carrier of iron supplements. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the iron transport from ferrous glycinate liposomes, and to estimate the effects of liposomal carriers, phytic acid, zinc and particle size on iron transport...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising therapeutic modality which uses a photosensitizer to capture visible light resulting in phototoxicity in the irradiated region. PDT has been used in a number of pathological indications, including tumor. A key desirable feature of the photosensitizer is the high phototoxicity on tumor cells but not on normal cells. In this study, we conjugate a gonadotr...

Heteroatom-doped graphene is emerging as an outstanding material for tailoring the properties of by chemical functionalization. With use classical click chemistry, N-doped has been functionalized to carry well-known photosensitizer electron donors, viz., zinc porphyrin and phthalocyanine. Efficient singlet quenching photosensitizers was witnessed in these hybrids, ultrafast pump–probe technique...
