S9911 Chlorin e6 Chlorin e6(Ce6, Phytochlorin) is a photosensitizer characterized by strong absorption peaks at 402 nm and 662 nm and intense fluorescence at 668 nm. It possesses antimicrobial and anticancer activities. It activates caspase-3 and induces apoptosis in cells, making it valuable for cancer research.Solutions are unstable and should be fresh-prepared.
E7081 Purpurin 18 Purpurin-18 is a chlorophyll-derived dihydroporphyrin, serves as a key precursor for photosensitizers like purpurinimides, which absorb light in the 700–850 nm range. It demonstrate potent photodynamic anti-tumor activity and generates ROS, disrupting mitochondrial membrane potential and inducing apoptosis against triple-negative breast cancer both in vitro and in vivo.
S1750 Octocrylene Octocrylene is an organic compound used as an ingredient in sunscreens and cosmetics.
S4552 Bithionol Bithionol (Actamer) is a potent inhibitor of soluble adenylyl cyclase(sAC) with an IC50 of 4 μM and has antibacterial and anthelmintic properties along with algaecide activity.
