pH-controlled solubilization of photosensitizer tetraphenylporphyrin

Near-infrared upper phenyl-fused BODIPY as a photosensitizer for photothermal–photodynamic therapy

“…Acidity is an important indicator in environmental monitoring and biological diagnosis. [48][49][50][51] The -NMe 2 group possesses acidity response characteristics, therefore the BBDP solution was adjusted to an acidic environment (0.5% TFA). The color of the solution changed from reddish brown to turquoise, enabling naked-eye recognition of acidity (Fig.…”
