The invention discloses an aggregation-induced emission
photosensitizer as well as a preparation method and application thereof. A D-A-pi-A-D symmetrical structure is adopted, the spatial effect and the conjugation degree are adjusted through a pi bridge, the
molar absorption coefficient is increased, and singlet excitons are increased; and furthermore, a
pyridine ring with positive charges is used for accelerating
electron transfer, the yield of triplet excitons and ROS is improved, compared with a traditional
photosensitizer, the ROS efficiency is improved by 2-3 times, the efficient killing capability of the
photosensitizer on pathogens can be ensured, and a guarantee is provided for rapid healing of infectious wounds. A
pyridine ring with positive charges is introduced into an MTCNPy molecule, and the targeting property of the photosensitizer to pathogens is enhanced by utilizing the
electrostatic interaction between the
pyridine ring and a bacterial
negative charge cell membrane, so that the damage to surrounding healthy tissues is reduced. The preparation process is simple, the cost is low, and the hydrogel has excellent hydrophilicity and
biocompatibility so as to be more suitable for the biological environment.
