Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a clinically approved alternative method for cancer treatment in which a combination of nontoxic drugs known as photosensitizers and oxygen is used. Despite intensive investigations and encouraging results, zinc phthalocyanines (ZnPcs) have not yet been approved as photosensitizers for clinical use. Label-free Raman imaging of nonfixed and unstained normal and cancerous colon human tissues and normal human CCD18-Co and cancerous CaCo-2 cell lines, without and after adding ZnPcS4 photosensitizer, was analyzed. The biochemical composition of normal and cancerous colon tissues and colon cells without and after adding ZnPcS4 at the subcellular level was determined. Analyzing the fluorescence/Raman signals of ZnPcS4, we found that in normal human colon tissue samples, in contrast to cancerous ones, there is a lower affinity to ZnPcS4 phthalocyanine. Moreover, a higher concentration in cancerous tissue was concomitant with a blue shift of the maximum peak position specific for the photosensitizer from 691-695 nm to 689 nm. Simultaneously for both types of samples, the signal was observed in the monomer region, confirming the excellent properties of ZnPcS4 for photo therapy (PDT). For colon cell experiments with a lower concentration of ZnPcS4 photosensitizer, c = 1 × 10-6 M, the phthalocyanine was localized in mitochondria/lipid structures; for a higher concentration, c = 9 × 10-6 M, localization inside the nucleus was predominant. Based on time-resolved experiments, we found that ZnPcS4 in the presence of biological interfaces features longer excited-state lifetime photosensitizers compared to the aqueous solution and bare ZnPcS4 film on CaF2 substrate, which is beneficial for application in PDT.

Abstract
Photochemical irradiation of porphyrins or phthalocyanines with violet or ultraviolet light absorbed by their second or higher absorption bands populates their higher excited states. These higher excited states generally dissipate very rapidly, but, competing with such rapid deactivation, often show unique behaviour different from the lowest excited states populated under visible light irradiation of the first absorption band, namely wavelength-dependent reactions or emission. The higher excited states often exhibit characteristic emission and enhanced reactivity in electron transfer, energy transfer and so on, competing with rapid deactivation. This paper attempts to summarize our work, perfomed particularly by means of femtosecond spectroscopy, and recent progress in this area.

Abstract
A promising material in medicine, electronics, optoelectronics, electrochemistry, catalysis, and photophysics, tetrasulphonated aluminum phthalocyanine (AlPcS(4)), is investigated by means of steady-state and time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopies. Absorption and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy indicate that AlPcS(4) is essentially monomeric. Spectrally resolved pump-probe data are recorded on time scales ranging from femtoseconds to nanoseconds. The nature of these fast processes and pathways of the competing relaxation processes from the initially excited electronic states in aqueous and organic (dimethyl sulfoxide) solutions are discussed. The decays and bleaching recovery have been fitted in the ultrafast window (0-10 ps) and later time window extending to nanoseconds (0-1 ns). While the excited-state dynamics have been found to be sensitive to the solvent environment, we were able to show that the fast dynamics is described by three time constants in the ranges of 115-500 fs, 2-25 ps, and 150-500 ps. We were able to ascribe these three time constants to different processes. The shortest time constants have been assigned to vibrational wavepacket dynamics. The few picosecond components have been assigned to vibrational relaxation in the excited electronic states. Finally, the 150-500 ps components represent the decay from S(1) to the ground state. The experimental and theoretical treatment proposed in this paper provides a basis for a substantial revision of the commonly accepted interpretation of the Soret transition (B transition) that exists in the literature.

Abstract
Ultrafast time-resolved electronic spectra of the primary events induced in the copper tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine Cu(tsPc)4-) in aqueous solution has been measured by femtosecond pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy. The primary events initiated by the absorption of a photon occurring within the femtosecond time scale are discussed on the basis of the electron transfer mechanism between the adjacent phthalocyanine rings proposed recently in our laboratory. The femtosecond transient absorption results are compared with the low temperature emission spectra obtained with Raman spectroscopy and the voltammetric curves.
