General description

1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran is a fluorescent dye.1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran is the model compound in studies of singlet fission.

Application

1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran(DPBF) was 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) was used as quencher during the photoinactivation of TA-3 mouse mammary carcinoma cells containing hematoporphyrin. 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran(DPBF) was used to study the single crystal molecular structure and solution photophysical properties of DPBF.

Significant efforts are currently being funneled into the improvement of therapeutic outcomes in cancer by designing hybrid nanomaterials that synergistically combine chemotherapeutic abilities and near-infrared (NIR) light-activated photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) activity. Herein, a nanotherapeutic platform is specifically designed

A major challenge in photodynamic therapy (PDT) is the development of new tumor-targeting photosensitizers. The tumor-specific activation is considered to be an effective strategy for designing these photosensitizers. Herein, we describe a novel tumor-pH-responsive supramolecular photosensitizer, LDH-ZnPcS

In this work, a triple-stimuli (GSH, pH and light irradiation) responsive system were designed based on CeO2 nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) coated doxorubicin (DOX) and photosensitizer hematoporphyrin (HP) dual-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). Upon entering into cancer cells, both high concentration

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) utilizing light-induced singlet oxygen has achieved attractive results in anticancer fields; however, its development is hindered by limited light penetration depth, skin phototoxicity, tumor hypoxia, and PDT-induced hypoxia. Inspired by our previous research work and the limitations

Utilization of a fluorescence dye, 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) as a detector of superoxide anion radical (O2*-) was examined. The fluorescence intensity of DPBF incorporated in phospholipid liposomes consisting of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS) is effectively quenched by incubation with xanthine/xanthine
