Here, we develop homogeneous hydrogel networks containing zinc tetraamino-phthalocyanine (ZnTAPc) as photosensitizer cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. The crosslinking process occurs via imine bond formation by reaction of NH2 groups of ZnTAPc and chitosan with aldehyde groups of the glutaraldehyde. Insertion of ZnTAPc interestingly increases its solubility in water medium. 2.0% and 4% weight/weight of the ZnTAPc were used with respect to chitosan polymer to generate hydrogel photosensitizer. FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM, and rheol. measurements were applied to evaluate the properties of the prepared hydrogels. Finally, difloxacin HCl was selected as a fluoroquinolone drug for the assessment of the drug release features of the made hydrogels. The difloxacin release was affected by the amount of ZnTAPc and pH medium. The activity of the hydrogels in photosensitizing process was considered by computing the rate of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran adsorption reduction as a singlet oxygen chem. quencher. The experimental process involved the reaction of 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran(cas: 5471-63-6Computed Properties of C20H14O)
1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran(cas: 5471-63-6) can be used as a fluorescent probe for detection of superoxide anion radical (O2−) inside the membrane lipid layer by DPBF fluorescence quenching method. 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran(DPBF) can be used to study the single crystal molecular structure and solution photophysical properties of DPBF.Computed Properties of C20H14O
