The non-covalent approaches to address the solubility and bioavailability of BCS Class-II and Class-IV drugs is an archetypal example and is a prolific topic. The present review highlights various supramolecular methods employed in addressing the photoinstability in drugs, emphasizing crystal engineering approaches. Because a greater proportion of the drugs are formulated in the solid-state, the structural factors—crystal packing, intermolecular interactions, packing density—remain a critical determinant in the observed extent of stability. Comprehending and amending these structural determinants using crystal engineering concepts proposes to address the photoinstability in drugs. Also, we highlight the pros and cons of the different adopted strategies in terms of formulation and the underlying challenges and put in prospect. The review provides a correlative assessment of the structure-property relations that could further augment the foundations of factual knowledge in drug stability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":376,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews","volume":"49 ","pages":"Article 100455"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"2261308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review focuses the synthesis of quaternized Pc dyes, their photophysical and photochemical properties, and their antimicrobial photoinactivation efficiency. This innovative study compares, for the first time, different cationic moieties on Pc taking into account the efficiency of singlet oxygen (¹O₂<span>), quantum yield (Φ</span>_Δ<span>) generation, fluorescence quantum yield (Φ</span>_F<span>), (photo)stability, light irradiation type (visible/white and/or red light), maximized overlapped absorption effect of Pc (S- and/or Q-band) </span><em>vs</em> light system irradiation type, and water solubility (<em>n</em>-octanol/water partition coefficient, P_o/w), when these parameters are determined and provided in the multidisciplinary reports.

These aspects are important to design versatile molecules that can interact with pathogenic microorganisms of variable size, subcellular architecture, biochemical composition, and susceptibility to externally added chemical agents. This review highlights the important developments of several modifications of cationic Pc dyes for the PDI of microorganisms, such as pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and virus.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":376,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 100422"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.jphotochemrev.2021.100422","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"2802545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

UV and visible light play key roles in vitamin D synthesis, reduction of blood pressure, among other beneficial effects. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive view of the wide range of responses of the human skin to sunlight by revisiting data on the beneficial and harmful effects of UV and visible light. We start by exploring the interaction of photons in the skin at several levels including physical (depth of photon penetration), chemical (light absorption and subsequent photochemical events), and biological (how cells and tissues respond). Skin responses to sun exposure can only be comprehensively understood through a consideration of the light-absorbing molecules present in the skin, especially the light-sensing proteins called opsins. Indeed, many of the cellular responses to sun exposure are modulated by opsins, which act as the “eyes of the skin”.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":376,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews","volume":"47 ","pages":"Article 100403"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.jphotochemrev.2021.100403","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"2606851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although N₂ constitutes 78.09 % of the earth's atmosphere, however, its conversion to ammonia is strenuous because of its non-polar and triple bond character. To address the burgeoning demand, ammonia is typically synthesized via the conventional energy and capital intensive Haber-Bosch technique utilizing natural gas and releasing tons of (CO₂) to the environment. On this basis, cost-effective photon-driven dinitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is aroused thriving attention as a sustainable and eco-friendly process for ammonia production under ambient conditions. Yet, the photocatalytic ammonia production is not up to the mark for industrial application due to low conversion rate, less catalytic selectivity, ambiguous mechanism, and limited faradic or solar-to-chemical efficiency. Further, the NRR activity of a catalyst essentially depends upon its electronic and surface texture; hence the fabrication of advanced materials is of paramount interest to enhance the performance. The present review covers the underlying mechanism of N₂ photoreduction, prevailing theories, different catalytic engineering techniques, various detection methods, and critical challenges encountered in the theme of photofixation of dinitrogen to ammonia.
