The steady-state spectra of autofluorescence and the reflection coefficient on the excitation wavelength of some stomach tissues in vivo with various pathological conditions (surface gastritis, displasia, cancer) are measured under excitation by the nitrogen laser irradiation (λ ex =337.1 nm ). The contour expansion of obtained fluorescence spectra into contributions of components is conducted by the Gaussian–Lorentzian curves method. It is shown that at least 7 groups of fluorophores forming a total luminescence spectrum can be distinguished during the development of displasia and tumor processes. The correlation of intensities of flavins and NAD(P)·H fluorescence is determined and the degree of respiratory activity of cells for the functional condition considered is estimated. The evaluations of the fluorescence quantum yield of the tissue's researched are given.

The synthesis of a zinc derivative of tribenzonaphthoporphyrazinato ( Zn -tri- PcNc ) obtained from 6-carboxymethyl-2,3-dicyanonaphthalene and phthalonitrile is described. This new phthalocyanine ( Pc ) compound was characterized by 1 H NMR, elemental analyses, IR and UV-vis. The spectroscopic analysis of this compound show an electronic spectrum in DMSO with characteristic bands in the Soret and ϱ region. Steady state and time-resolved spectral analysis revealed a fluorescence quantum yield and a fluorescence lifetime of Φf=0.22 and τf = 2.56 ns respectively, in agreement with other Pc derivatives. This compound also shows a triplet lifetime in air satured solutions of 1.06 μs and a transient with the maximum absortion located at 610 nm, 120 nm shifted to the red compared to the triplet observed by other Pc compounds.

This work describes the synthesis, spectral and fluorescence properties of bis 4-(4-formyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy) substituted zinc (ZnPc) and magnesium (MgPc) phthalocyanines. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, UV-Vis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR and mass spectra. Afterward, the effects of including metal ion on the photophysicochemical properties of the complexes were studied in biocompatible solvent DMSO to analyze their potential to use as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The fluorescence and singlet oxygen quantum yields were calculated as 0.04–0.15 and 0.70–0.52 for ZnPc and MgPc, respectively. According to the results, MgPc has higher fluorescence quantum yield than ZnPc, while ZnPc has higher singlet oxygen quantum yield than MgPc. The results show that the synthesized complexes can have therapeutic outcomes for cancer treatment.
