AI Article Synopsis
- - Cationic polylysine facilitates the aggregation of negatively charged ZnTPPS in water when conditions are neutral.
- - Spectroscopic studies reveal that the arrangement of ZnTPPS on the polylysine depends on the length of the polylysine chains.
- - The process is modeled using spinodal decomposition theory in confined spaces, examining how randomly placed porphyrins evolve over time on a rod-like polyelectrolyte of varying lengths.
Article Abstract
Cationic polylysine promotes, under neutral conditions, the spontaneous aggregation of opposite charged ZnTPPS in water. Spectroscopic investigations evidence a different preorganization of ZnTPPS onto the polypeptide matrix depending on the chain length. Spinodal decomposition theory in confined geometry is used to model this mechanism by considering the time evolution of a homogeneous distribution of randomly adsorbed particles (porphyrins) onto a rodlike polyelectrolyte (polymer) of variable length L.
