- Description: In this study, we report for the first time on the photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) of asymmetrical zinc(II) phthalocyanines and their conjugates with nickel tungstate (NiWO4), cobalt tungstate (CoWO4) and bismuth tungstate (Bi2WO6) nanoparticles. CoWO4, NiWO4 and Bi2WO6 were capped with glutathione and covalently linked to three asymmetrical zinc(II) phthalocyanines for PACT. The plate count method was used to investigate the effect of covalently linking asymmetrical zinc(II) phthalocyanines to nanoparticles under light (for PACT against Staphylococcus aureus) and in the dark. Both Pc complexes and the conjugates indicated minimum dark-toxicity. The conjugates showed greater antimicrobial activity against a gram-positive and drug resistant bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, than Pc complexes alone.

- Description: An amide mono substituted benzothiozole phthalocyanine: zinc(II) 3-(4-((3,17,23-tris(4-(benzo [d]thiazol-2-yl)phenoxy)-9-yl)oxy) phenyl)amide phthalocyanine (NH2BzPc) was covalently linked to undoped and heteroatom doped detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs): B@DNDs, P@DNDs, S@DNDs, N@DNDs, and SandN@DNDs There is a drastic decrease in highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) – lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy gaps for nanoconjugates compared to DNDs alone. B@DNDs-NH2BzPc, SandN@DNDs-NH2BzPc, and P@DNDs-NH2BzPc showed superior photodynamic therapy (PDT) effects. DNDs-NH2BzPc also had a small HOMO-LUMO gap, but did not show improved PDT activity compared to the Pc alone, suggesting doping of DNDs is important. This study shows improved PDT effect on Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 breast cancer lines at 7.63%, 7.62% and 6.5% cell viability for P@DNDs-NH2BzPc, SandN@DNDs-NH2BzPc and B@DNDs-NH2BzPc, respectively.
