“…The coupling of porphyrin with nanoparticles is also a field of research waiting to take off due to the tremendous progress in the discovery of techniques to create well uniform and defined nanoparticles of various elemental composition, size and shape. An example was immobilizing dihydroxo(tetraphenylporphyrinato)antimony(V) on silica gel to effectively sterilize E. coli and Legionella pneumophila , under visible‐light irradiation. The interplay of the central metallic atom in the porphyrin moiety could also bring about useful benefits.…”

“…On the other hand, photocatalytic treatments have received much attention as an environmentally friendly process to inactivate bacteria in contaminated water. In 2002-2003, our group carried out the photoinactivation of Legionella species occurring in bacteria's natural habitats, such as in cooling towers and public fountains using a use of Sb(tpp)/SiO 2 [18].…”

“…A phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.0, 10 mL) containing a cell suspension of L. pneumophila (6.4 × 10 5 CFU/100 mL), and Sb(tpp)/SiO 2 (10 mg) was introduced into the L-type glass tube (length 18 cm, diameter 1.5 cm) and irradiated with a fluorescent lamp [18]. Aliquots (0.1 mL) of the reaction mixture were directly plated on a selective medium for Legionella species, i.e., WYOα agar medium (Eiken Chemicals Co., Ltd, Japan) consisting of glycine (3 g), vancomycin (5 mg), polymixin B (10 6 IU), and amphotericin B (80 mg).…”
