- Description
- This work explores the synthesis, photophysicochemical properties and photodynamic activity (PDT) of tetrakis [N,N’–bis (4-(diethylamino)benzylidene) amino)propan-2-yl)oxy) phthalocyaninato] Zn (II) (3) and tetra-phenoxy N,N-dimethyl-4-((methylimino) Zn (II) (4) when the encapsulated into silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) followed by conjugation of folic acid (FA). The synthesised complexes and their doped analogues are examined for their PDT activity using MCF-7 cells. All the complexes showed dark toxicity that is >80%. The folic acid conjugates, MPc@SiNPs-FA showed greater photocytoxicity against MCF-7 cells upon irradiation with laser light.
