- Abstract
- Owing to their unique, nanoscale related optical properties, nanostructures assembled from molecular photosensitizers (PSs) have interesting applications in phototheranostics. However, most nanostructured PS assemblies are super-quenched, thus, preventing their use in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Although some of these materials undergo stimuli-responsive disassembly, which leads to partial recovery of PDT activity, their therapeutic potentials are unsatisfactory owing to a limited ability to promote generation reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially via type I photoreactions (i.e., not by 1O2 generation). Herein we demonstrate that a new, nanostructured phthalocyanine assembly, NanoPcA, has the ability to promote highly efficient ROS generation via the type I mechanism. The results of antibacterial studies demonstrate that NanoPcA has potential PDT applications. © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
