In order to explore the effect of both meso-tetrakis (4-hydroxylphenyl) porphyrin (THPP) and hydrogels on calcium carbonate mineralization,and consequently synthesize functional materials based on porphyrin and calcium carbonate with tunable shapes and optical properties,a new kind of biomimetic mineralization system which combined THPP with three biopolymer hydrogels (gelatin,agarose and calcium alginate gels) was designed and investigated. A carbonate diffusion method based on the generation of CO2 by slow decomposition of ammonium hydrogen carbonate was adopted for calcium carbonate crystallization. The results show that both gelatin and alginate hydrogels exhibit the ability of stabilizing vaterite,while agarose only induces the formation of calcite. With participation of THPP in the mineralization environments,calcite is favored in all these hydrogels,while the crystal morphologies are greatly different from each other. These results indicate the perspective of THPP in regulating calcium carbonate crystallization and also provide a new strategy for fabricating advanced functional materials with controlled morphology and tunable optical properties based on calcium carbonate and THPP.展开更多

The complex was characterized by UV-Vis, FT-IR, conventional fluorescence, MALDI-TOF-MS, and ^1H NMR spectral techniques. The structure of complex was proposed viaSpectral analyses, in which tetraphenylporphyrin was coordinated to a cerium ion in a tetradentate fashion, while one nitrate was coordinated to the same cerium ion. After bubbling NO to the solution of Ce(TPP)NO3 in CH2Cl2, spectral analyses suggested that Ce(TPP)NO3 could interact with NO to form a novel complex of Ce(TPP)(NO)NO3, and NO was coordinated to the center cerium ion. When nitrogen was poured into the Ce(TPP)(NO)(NO3) solution, the complex could be reduced to Ce(TPP)NO3.展开更多

Seven BPD concentrations (2 500ng/ml, 1250ng/ml, 625ng/ml, 312. 5ng/ml, 156.25ng/ml, 78.125ng/ml, 39.062 5ng/ml) and three energy densities (1. 2J/cm2, 2. 4J/cm2 and 3. 6J/cm2) were applied. The damage of the tumor cells was evaluated by MTT assay 24 hours after PDT. The changes of the ultrastructure of RB cells were observed under eleceronic microscope 4 hours after PDT.Results: There was a significant dose-response relationship between tumor cell damage and BPD concentration in the medium under light irradiation at the energy density of 1.2J/cm .
