An overview on AIEgen‐decorated porphyrins: Current status and applications
One of the major obstacles of porphyrins is the aggregation‐caused quenching (ACQ) of photoluminescence due to the strong intermolecular π–π interaction of the planar porphyrin core in the solid state.

Mechanisms of Phototoxic Effects of Cationic Porphyrins on Human Cells In Vitro
The toxic effects of four cationic porphyrins on various human cells were studied in vitro. It was found that, under dark conditions, porphyrins are almost nontoxic, while, under the action of light, the toxic effect was observed starting from nanomolar ...

Air oxidation of the kerogen/asphaltene vanadyl porphyrins: an electron spin resonance study [PDF]
The thermal behavior of vanadyl porphyrins was studied by electron spin resonance during heating of kerogens, isolated from the La Luna (Venezuela) and Serpiano (Switzerland) bituminous rocks, at 25°C for 1 to 20 days in the presence of air.

Water-Solubilization of P(V) and Sb(V) Porphyrins and Their Photobiological Application
Porphyrins have been widely utilized as biochemical and biological functional chromophores which can operate under visible-light irradiation. Water-soluble porphyrins have been used as the drug for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photodynamic inactivation

The photodynamic and non-photodynamic actions of porphyrins
Porphyrias are a family of inherited diseases, each associated with a partial defect in one of the enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway. In six of the eight porphyrias described, the main clinical manifestation is skin photosensitivity brought about ...
