The photodynamic activity of a cationic Zn(II) tetramethyltetrapyridinoporphyrazinium salt (ZnPc 2) was compared with that of a non-charged Zn(II) tetrapyridinoporphyrazine (ZnPc 1), both in vitro using human red blood (HRB) cells and a typical Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli. Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic studies were analyzed in different media. Fluorescence quantum yields (phi(F)) of 0.35 for ZnPc 1 and 0.30 for ZnPc 2 were calculated in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The singlet molecular oxygen, O-2((1)Delta(g)), production was evaluated using 9,10-dimethylanthracene (DMA) in DMF yielding values of Phi(Delta) = 0.56 for ZnPc 1 and 0.50 for ZnPc 2. In biological medium, the photodynamic effect was first evaluated in HRB cells. Both phthalocyanines produce similar photohemolysis of HRB cells, reaching values >90% of lysis after 5 min of irradiation with visible light. The photodynamic effect is accompanied by an increase in the membrane fluidity of HRB cells. However, these studies on E. coli cells showed that the cationic ZnPc 2 produces a higher photoinactivation of Gram-negative bacteria than ZnPc 1. Also, these results were established by stopped of growth curves for E. coli. Therefore the studies show that cationic ZnPc 2 is an efficient phototherapeutic agent with potential applications in tumor cell and Gram-negative bacteria inactivation by photodynamic therapy.
