[0171] 2. Experiment After resuscitation, Porphyromonas gingivalis (purchased from Beijing Beina Chuanglian Biotechnology Research Institute, batch number BNCC353909) was inoculated into BHI medium and cultured to the logarithmic phase under anaerobic conditions of 10% H2, 10% CO2, and 80% N2; an appropriate amount of the above bacterial solution was taken and centrifuged at 10,000×g for 5 minutes at room temperature, the supernatant was discarded, and the solution was washed once with saline. The concentration of the bacterial solution was adjusted to 10 6 bacteria / mL.

[0172] Test group: Take 1 mL of bacterial solution, add 1 μL of DMSO solution of the drug to be tested, and shake well (to make the final concentration of the drug 5ug / mL). After incubating at 37℃ in the dark for 15 minutes, take 10μL of bacterial solution from each group and drop it on the slide.

[0173] Control group: The above method was followed, except that no compound was added.

[0174] The bacteria were observed under a fluorescence microscope and the differences in fluorescence intensity of the compounds among the groups were compared (Ex: 405 nm; Em: 630 nm).

[0175] 3. Results and Discussion The results are as follows Figure 2 As shown in (a), Porphyromonas gingivalis has different degrees of uptake of PpIX, P-06, P-02 and P-12, among which Porphyromonas gingivalis has a stronger uptake of P-06, P-02 and P-12 than PpIX. Figure 2 As shown in (b), the uptake of P-12 by Porphyromonas gingivalis was significantly higher than that of P-12-02. P-12 has a stronger targeting effect on Porphyromonas gingivalis than P-12-02.

[0176] D. Dissolution Effect Example Weigh P-12 and P-12-I (see Table 10 for sample quantity) and operate at 25°C. Add water in small amounts and multiple times, shake vigorously for 30 seconds every 5 minutes, and observe the dissolution within 30 minutes. If there are no visible solute particles or droplets, it is considered to be completely dissolved. At this time, record the total amount of water added as the solvent amount.

[0177] Table 10: Solubility of P-12 and P-12-I

[0178] *The approximate solubility of the drug is expressed in the following terms (from the pharmacopoeia): Slightly soluble: refers to the solute 1g (ml) can be dissolved in 30 to less than 100ml of solvent; Very slightly soluble: refers to the solute 1g (ml) can be dissolved in 1000 to less than 10000ml of solvent.

[0179] According to the experimental results, P-12 (the compound of the present invention formed by acetate ion salt) has higher solubility than P-12-I (the corresponding compound formed by iodide ion salt).
