  • Abstract
    Porphyrinated cellulose laurate esters have been prepared in homogeneous DMA/LiCl medium by ‘one-pot, two-step’ reactions starting from cellulose, protoporphyrin IX, and lauric acid and using a TsCl/Pyridine system. The plastic films obtained after casting were shown to display photobactericidal activity against Gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria. This new photobactericidal polymer has potential for industrial, medical, or household applications.
