1 results about "Bacteriochlorophyll" patented technology

Bacteriochlorophylls (BChl) are photosynthetic pigments that occur in various phototrophic bacteria. They were discovered by C. B. van Niel in 1932. They are related to chlorophylls, which are the primary pigments in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. Groups that contain bacteriochlorophyll conduct photosynthesis, but do not produce oxygen. They use wavelengths of light not absorbed by plants or Cyanobacteria. Replacement of Mg2+ with protons gives bacteriophaeophytin (BPh), the phaeophytin form.

A method for preparing core-shell structured mesoporous nanoparticles and their application in combined near-infrared photothermal and photodynamic antibacterial activity.

This invention belongs to the field of biomedical materials and nanotechnology, specifically relating to the synthesis and application of a multifunctional mesoporous nanomaterial. The inventors synthesized a core-shell structured mesoporous nanoparticle using mesoporous silica nanoparticles and dopamine via emulsion epitaxy. The core of the core-shell structured mesoporous nanoparticle is S-nitrosoglutathione supported on mesoporous silica, and the outer shell is pentafluorophenyl chlorophyll supported on mesoporous polydopamine, forming MSN / G@mPDA / F nanoparticles. These nanoparticles rapidly increase in temperature to 45°C under 808 nm laser irradiation. o At temperatures above a certain temperature, S-nitrosoglutathione decomposes to produce nitric oxide. Further irradiation at 750 nm generates a large amount of reactive oxygen species, killing bacteria. This combination of photothermal and photodynamic therapy effectively inhibits bacterial growth. Therefore, this method exhibits excellent antibacterial effects and can play a role in the future treatment of bacterial infections.
