This review presents a robust strategy to design photosensitizers (PSs) for various species.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a photochemical-based treatment approach that involves the …

Tetraphenylporphyrin (H 2 TPP) and zinc tetraphenylporphyrin (ZnTPP) are widely used
benchmark molecules in diverse photochemical studies given facile synthetic access, rich …

In recent years, lanthanide (Ln) porphyrinoids have received increasing attention as
theranostics. Broadly speaking, the term 'theranostics' refers to agents designed to allow …

Tetrapyrrole derivatives such as porphyrins, phthalocyanines, naphthalocyanines, and
porpholactones, are highly stable macrocyclic compounds that play important roles in many …

Abstract Singlet oxygen (1 O 2) is an effective reactive oxygen species in disinfection due to
its long lifetime and sensitivity to bacteria. This study tried to develop a 1 O 2 dominated …

The replacement of one or more pyrrolic building block (s) of a porphyrin by a nonpyrrolic
heterocycle leads to the formation of so-called pyrrole-modified porphyrins (PMPs) …

The design of highly near-infrared (NIR) emissive lanthanide (Ln) complexes is challenging,
owing to the lack of molecular systems with a high sensitization efficiency and the difficulty of …

Herein, we have reported two benzothiazole-linked covalent organic framework
nanostructures (BTZ-BCA-COF and BTZ-TPA-COF), which have been prepared via a highly …

Phototheranostics constitute an emerging cancer treatment wherein the core diagnostic and
therapeutic functions are integrated into a single photosensitizer (PS). Achieving the full …

Near-infrared (NIR, 700–1700 nm) bioimaging has gained considerable attention in recent
years owing to its high imaging resolution and increasing penetration depth of tissues. NIR …
