Microcrystalline cellulose as a carrier for hydrophobic photosensitizers in water

Samples of pheophorbide-a adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose, which have been previously characterized in the solid state (M.G. Lagorio, E. San Roman, A. Zcug, J. Zimmermann and B. Röder, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2001, 3, 1524 1529), were washed with water, leading to stable suspensions of ultra...
