The 7-diethylaminothio-4-coumarinyl skeleton, employed here as the trigger, photoreleases caged molecules from the excited triplet state, in contrast to its carbonyl analogue, where the same reaction is known to occur from the excited singlet state. Encapsulation in OA solubilizes molecules in water that are otherwise water-insoluble, and retains the used trigger within itself following the release of the aliphatic acid. Such supramolecular characteristics usher in new features to the photorelease methodology. The thiocarbonyl chromophore extends the absorption of coumarinyl trigger to visible range while enhancing the intersystem crossing (ISC) to the triplet state, making it the reactive state. Despite the non-polar environment within the OA capsules the photocleavage occurs in a heterolytic fashion to release the conjugate base and the used trigger as triplet carbocation in an adiabatic process. Interestingly, the triplet carbocation crosses to the ground singlet surface (closed shell singlet carbocation) with the help of water molecules, possibly aided by C = S chromophore. Utilizing the known excited state dynamics of related thiocoumarinyl and coumarinyl systems, we have identified a few of the important mechanistic features of the photorelease process of 7-diethylaminothio-4-coumarinyl derivatives.

Its harmful effects on microorganisms, due mainly to oxidative damage, have been exploited for development of natural solar and commercial UVA-based disinfection methods. In this work, the global transcriptional response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exposed to ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation was analyzed. To conduct this study, we analyzed the whole transcriptome of the PAO1 strain grown to logarithmic phase under sublethal doses of UVA or in the dark. We found that a total of 298 genes responded to UVA with a change of at least two-fold (5.36% of the total P. aeruginosa genome), and showed equal amount of induced and repressed genes. An important fraction of the induced genes were involved in the response to DNA damage and included induction of SOS, prophage and pyocins genes. The results presented in this study suggest that one of the main UVA targets are proteins carrying [Fe-S] clusters since several genes involved in the processes of synthesis, trafficking and assembly of these structures were upregulated. The management of intracellular iron levels also seems to be a robust response to this stress factor. The strong induction of genes involved in denitrification suggest that this pathway and/or reactive nitrogen species such as nitric oxide could have a role in the response to this radiation.

Different metal-doped nickel oxide (DMD-NiO) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using a sol-gel technique and were used to degrade low-density polyethylene (LDPE) microplastic (MP) films when exposed to sunlight. The optical and structural properties of sol-gel method synthesized materials were investigated using a variety of characterization methods (Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Degradation study results suggest that the photocatalytic activity of DMD-NiO-LDPE nanocomposites (NCs) films was greater than that of pure LDPE and undoped NiO-LDPE films. Because of their increased optical absorption and efficient suppression of photo-produced charge carriers' recombination, the DMD-NiO NPs showed higher photocatalytic degradation of LDPE films. Thus, LDPE films with 2% wt Fe-NiO (iron-doped nickel oxide) nanomaterials showed a degradation of around 38.16% among DMD-NiO-LDPE NCs films under visible light over a short period of 30 days (240 h). The formation of carbonyl groups in the degradation product of LDPE was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis. When compared to the original LDPE film, the Fe-NiO-LDPE NCs films showed a significant decrease in crystallinity and carbonyl indexes, as much as 8.4% lower.

In this investigation, we carried out a mechanistic and kinetic approach to Cefadroxil photodegradation sensitized by Riboflavin and Humic Acid, in individual and combined processes. Our experiments indicate that Cefadroxil is able to interact with the excited states of Riboflavin as well as with the photogenerated reactive oxygen species, with an important contribution of singlet oxygen. The antibiotic was less sensitive to the photodegradation in the presence of Humic Acids and in the mixture of Riboflavin and Humic Acids.

Although the SPF concept is simple, SPF values are difficult to measure, due to the rather high variability caused by the complex interaction of light and skin. For half a century, there have been attempts to correlate the costly and ethically controversial in vivo procedure with a non-invasive (in vitro) method. After decades of development, alternative non-invasive SPF methods are expected to become available as ISO standards in early 2025. In particular, sunscreen manufacturers who use zinc oxide (ZnO) in higher concentrations (conc.) (10-25%) in their formulations, are concerned that these new in vitro methods would not confirm the SPF-values on their labels that have been determined in vivo, according to ISO 24444. This brief review reveals that sunscreen formulations with high conc. of ZnO often yield SPF<sub>in vitro</sub> values that are lower than the SPF<sub>in vivo</sub> values. This can be explained by the fact that in vitro methods have been developed for conventional emulsions products with organic UV filters, but not for highly concentrated ZnO-alone sunscreens. Fortunately, there seems to be a fix for this problem. There is a difference in density between ordinary emulsions with organic filters (density of the residual oil phase ~ 1.0 g/ml) and highly concentrated ZnO-alone formulations (~ 1.3-1.7 g/ml). As the application of current standards is weight-based, this makes the film on the PMMA plate much thinner, which is likely to lead to lower SPF<sub>in vitro</sub> values. Preliminary experiments show that using the same volume on the PMMA plates instead of the same weight as organic UV filters gives a much better correlation between in vitro and in vivo SPF results. A recent evaluation of three samples of highly concentrated ZnO sunscreens by the Dutch NVWA seems to confirm these findings. Further experimental evidence is required to fully understand this phenomenon and to adapt the in vitro method for higher conc.

In addition to its anti-cancer activity curcumin is also known to be cytotoxic upon photoactivation. Time-lapse DIC and correlative fluorescence microscopy were used to evaluate the effects of curcumin, combined with continuous exposure to visible light, on cellular components of RTG-2 cells. Curcumin combined with visible light resulted in rapid and dramatic destruction of cells. F-actin and microtubule cytoskeletons were drastically altered, both showing fragmentation and overall loss from cells. Nuclei exhibited granulated nucleoplasm, condensed DNA, and physical shrinkage. Mitochondria rapidly fragmented along their length and disappeared from cells. Plasma membrane was breached based on lipophilic dye staining and the entrance of otherwise impermeant small molecules into the cell. Grossly distorted morphology hallmarked by significant swelling and coarse granulation of the cytoplasm was consistently observed. All of these effects were dependent on visible light as the same cellular targets in curcumin-treated cells outside the illuminated area were always unperturbed. The combination of curcumin and continuous exposure to visible light enables rapid and irreversible cellular destruction which can be monitored in real-time. Real-time monitoring of this structural disintegration suggests a new approach to applying curcumin in photodynamic treatments, where the progression of cell and tissue destruction might be simultaneously evaluated through optical means.</p>","PeriodicalId":98,"journal":{"name":"Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences","volume":" ","pages":"1893-1914"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142337525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
