Photosensitizing Activity of Pegylated Pheophorbide a
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive therapeutic modality used in a various number of diseases and cancer. It involves the systemic or topic administration of a photosensitizer, followed by irradiation with light. The activated photosensitizer converts oxygen to singlet oxygen and/or reactive oxygen species (ROS) which lead to cell death and ...

This study evaluated the functional potential of Ulva lactuca extract as a natural colorant and antioxidant incorporated into sugar‐based (fondant) and aerated (meringue) confectionery matrices. Extract incorporation significantly enriched total phenolic content—achieving up to 150.95 mg GAE/100 g dry matter in meringues—and surged antioxidant ...

Pheophorbide b ethyl ester from a chlorella vulgaris dietary supplement
In the title compound, C37H38N4O6, four five-membered nitrogen-bearing rings are nearly coplanar. Two N atoms in two these five-membered rings have attached H atoms, which contribute to the formation of intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds [N...N =

Interaction between pheophorbide a and primary aliphatic amines.
The effect of primary aliphatic amine structure and conditions (solvent, the presence of tertiary amine) in course of its reaction with pheophorbide a and methylpheophorbide a on the yield of the final product – chlorine е6-13-alkylamide has been shown.

Previously, we have shown that the use of a cyclopeptidic carrier could be of great interest for the design of fully characterized prodrugs for further use in photodynamic therapy. In order to further optimize the design, we decided to modify the highly quenched conjugate uPA-cPPP4/5 by co-loading a long-distance fluorescence quencher. For this purpose
