Article Abstract
The effective photogeneration of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) by porphyrins (coproporphyrin I; 2,4-bi (alpha-methoxyethyl) deuteroporphyrin IX and cyclopanten-coproporphyrin I) conjugated with antibodies (mouse monoclonal IgG and IgM and human gamma-globulin) have been observed with the direct luminescence method of 1O2 detection. Absolute quantum yields of 1O2 formation by the conjugates have been determined. The data suggest that porphyrin-antibody conjugates are promising for the use as drugs in photodynamic tumor treatment.
