Tuning optical properties, charge transfer and anticancer activity of curcumin-cyanine conjugates: A combined experimental and DFT study
{{output}}
Despite curcumin's potential for photosensitizer design, its low stability in the aqueous phase and lack of charge-transfer properties have prevented its application in photodynamic therapy (PDT). We rationally designed four curcumin-monomethine cyanine conju... ...
