Ultrafast Broadband Fluorescence Up-conversion Study of the Electronic Relaxation of Metalloporphyrins

Majed Chergui, Andrea Cannizzo, Olivier Christian Bräm

We present a systematic study of the ultrafast fluorescence with broadband detection and similar to 110 fs resolution of 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphin (TPP) and 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-oc-taethylporphin (OEP), with open 3d-shell metals. We also revisit the cas ...

In vivo measurement of the tissue oxygenation by time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy of protoporphyrin IX: Strategies to minimize artefacts associated with photoproducts

Georges Wagnières, Emmanuel Louis Arthur Gerelli, Veronika Huntosova

The determination of the oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) in real time in living biological tissues is of high interest for numerous therapeutics, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and radiotherapy. The minimally invasive and real-time measurement of the ...

Tryptophan-to-heme electron transfer in ferrous myoglobins

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andre Al Haddad, Gerald Auböck, Roberto Monni

It was recently demonstrated that in ferric myoglobins (Mb) the fluorescence quenching of the photoexcited tryptophan 14 (*Trp(14)) residue is in part due to an electron transfer to the heme porphyrin (porph), turning it to the ferrous state. However, the ...

Correlation between Protoporphyrin IX Fluorescence Intensity, Photobleaching, Pain and Clinical Outcome of Actinic Keratosis Treated by Photodynamic Therapy

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Jérôme Barge, Filippo Piffaretti

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Metvix® is a good therapeutic option to treat actinic keratosis, but it presents drawbacks (pain, lesion recurrences, heterogeneous outcome), emphasizing the possible need to individualize treatment. Objective: W ...

Study of the pO2-sensitivity of the dendrimeric and free forms of Pd-meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin, incorporated or not in chitosan-based nanoparticles

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Peter Käuper, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

The concentration of oxygen and its rate of consumption are important factors in certain medical treatments, such as radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Measuring the tissue concentration of oxygen or its partial pressure (pO2) can be achieved by ...

Electrocatalysis at liquid/liquid interfaces

Raheleh Partovi Nia

This thesis is devoted to the study of oxygen reduction reaction catalysed by porphyrins at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES). Electrochemical and spectrophotometric techniques are introduced to these interfaces in order to ...

Oxygen reduction catalyzed by a fluorinated tetraphenylporphyrin free base at liquid/liquid interfaces

Hubert Girault, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Bin Su, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Imren Hatay, Zdenek Samec

The diprotonated form of a fluorinated free base porphyrin, namely 5-(p-aminophenyl)-10,15,20-tris(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin (H(2)FAP), can catalyze the reduction of oxygen by a weak electron donor, namely ferrocene (Fc). At a water/1,2-dichloroethane in ...

Thrombosis efficacy induced by photodynamic therapy using different photosensitizers

Bernadette Pegaz-Toquet

Various human pathologies, such as cancers or, notably, exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), are characterized by an abnormal vascular proliferation (angiogenesis), which in the case of this type of AMD, can rapidly lead to blindness if no cou ...

Clinical evaluation of the cutaneous phototoxicity of 5, 10, 15, 20-tetra (m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières

The cutaneous phototoxic reaction induced by i.v. injection of 5,-10,-15,-20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (mTHPC) has been clin. evaluated in patients undergoing photodynamic therapy. These tests were performed on the backs of 23 patients with a solar sim ...
