	abstract = {We report the direct observation of 1D and 2D nanostructures of cobalt dipyrromethene trimer complexes adsorbed on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite surface using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). STM images showed two types of ordered structures coexisting on the surface: long 1D molecular chains isolated on the terraces, and 2D hexagonal patterns confined by a 1D chain and/or a graphite step edge. These 1D and 2D structures are attributed to {\textquoteright}edge-on{\textquoteright} and {\textquoteright}face-on{\textquoteright} complex alignments on the surface, respectively. In both configurations, substrate-mediated molecule-molecule interactions may play a significant role in stabilizing the nanostructures. (C) 2009 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {Methods for the separation of photosensitizer isomers, such as benzoporphyrin derivative monoacid, benzoporphyrin ethyl monoacid, 2-[1-hexyloxyethyl]-2-devinylpyropheophorbide-a, diethyleneglycol diester benzoporphyrin derivative, tin ethyl etiopurpurin, and phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate, have been systematically developed by CE. Detection was accomplished by UV absorption at 214 nm or by LIF with excitation at 442/488 nm and emission at 690 nm. The effects of three major experimental parameters of buffer types, organic solvents, and surfactant additives are described. The optimized separation conditions were determined so as to provide satisfactory separation efficiency and analysis time. The methods are shown to be suitable for the separation and determination of porphyrin and phthalocyanines regioisomers, diastereoisomers, and enantiomers.},

	abstract = {Theoretical valence photoelectron and UV-visible absorption spectra of four stable conductive molecules (N, N{\textquoteright}-diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DPPD), p-quaterphenyl (PQP), 2, 3, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 18-octaethyl-21H, 23H-porphyrin (OEP), and 29H, 31H-phthalocyanine (PC)) have been obtained by semiempirical HAM/3 and ZINDO MO calculations, respectively. The Al K alpha photoelectron spectra were simulated using Gaussian lineshape functions of an approximate linewidth 0.10 E-k (E-k = E-k{\textquoteright} - WD), where E-k{\textquoteright} is the vertical ionization potential (VIP) of each MO and WD is a shift to account for sample work function and other energy effects, as stated in previous studies. The theoretical valence spectra of the four conductive compounds are in good accordance with the observed ones. The theoretical UV-visible absorption curves of DPPD, PQP, OEP, and PC were obtained after AM1 calculations with COSMO option to reflect solvent effects. The absorption curves as simulated with Gaussian lineshape functions of a constant linewidth of 0.003 eV. Correspond well to the observed spectra. For PC, the simulated spectrum which consists of 0.5 inner protonation (IP) and 0.5 outer protonation (OP) types for PC-ring shows much better agreement with the experimental spectrum in H2SO4 than the spectrum of either TP or OP type alone.},

	abstract = {The in vivo characteristics of four analogues of benzoporphyrin derivative (BPD) have been investigated. Biodistribution data obtained in DBA/2J mice with BPD-MA (monoacid ring A analogue) which had been tritiated or internally labelled with C-14 showed that both labelled materials acted in an essentially identical manner during the period of study. Biodistribution and clearance studies showed that relative distribution in a variety of mouse tissues was similar for all BPD analogues. M1 tumour cells (rhabdomyosarcoma in DBA/2J mice) taken from tumours excised from animals treated 3 h earlier with BPD, and tested in vitro for photosensitivity provided evidence that significant levels of photosensitiser detected in tumour was both active and associated with tumour cells. The monoacid forms of BPD were found to be much more photodynamically active in this test that were the diacid analogues. The ability of the analogues to ablate tumours in mice by photodynamic therapy was also tested. Again, BPD-MA and BPD-MB proved to be measurably better than the diacid analogues. These findings are discussed in reference to structural and physical differences between the analogues.},
