pubmed:abstractText
The absorption and fluorescence spectra of monomeric and aggregated species present in aqueous solutions of porphyrin c have been resolved by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy. The dependence of the singlet oxygen formation yield (phi delta) on excitation wavelength has also been determined. In the Q-band spectral region, the aggregate absorption and emission spectra are shifted to longer wavelengths with respect to the monomer spectrum with phi delta (monomer) = 0.59 and phi delta (aggregate) = 0.33. The relevance of these findings to the optimization of irradiation conditions in tumour phototherapy using porphyrin c are discussed.
