The photodynamic activity of water insoluble porphyrins improved when encapsulated into the micelles. Novel asymmetrical phthalocyanines were also synthesised for nonlinear optics (NLO) studies in solution and thin films.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 16:05:57 SAST ]]> Determination of nonlinear optical properties of phthalocyanine regioisomers using computational models https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:41337 Wed 12 May 2021 15:02:23 SAST ]]> The electrocatalytic response of metallophthalocyanines when clicked to electrodes and to nanomaterials https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42174 Wed 12 May 2021 15:00:21 SAST ]]> Evaluation of metallophthalocyanine functionalized photocatalytic asymmetric polymer membranes for pollution control and antimicrobial activity https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42052 Wed 12 May 2021 14:30:41 SAST ]]> Physicochemical properties and photodynamic therapy activities of indium and zinc phthalocyanine-nanoparticle conjugates https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:30589 50Îll viability at concentrations≤ 160μg/mL, however the conjugates showed<50% cell viabilityatconcentrations≤ 160μg/mLprobably due to the enhanced singlet oxygen quantum yield. The findings from this work show the importance of linking photosensitises such as phthalocyanines to metal nanoparticles for the enhancement ofsinglet oxygen quantum yield and ultimately the photodynamic effect.]]> Thu 13 May 2021 08:10:17 SAST ]]> Graphene quantum dots and their metallophthalocyanines nanoconjugates as novel photoluminescent nanosensors https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:27821 Thu 13 May 2021 01:17:53 SAST ]]>
