Nanoparticles of <i>N</i>-Vinylpyrrolidone Amphiphilic Copolymers and Pheophorbide <i>a</i> as Promising Photosensitizers for Photodynamic Therapy: Design, Properties and In Vitro Phototoxic Activity

A series of nanoparticles (NPs) with a hydrodynamic radius from 20 to 100 nm in PBS was developed over the solubilization of hydrophobic dye methyl pheophorbide <i>a</i> (chlorin e<sub>6</sub> derivative) by amphiphilic copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone with (di)methacrylates....
