The Friend erythroleukemia cell line was used to study the and Riflcind, 1978), it has been shown that numerous agents, binding and bialogical properties of the photosensitizer he-of which the best known is DMSO (Friend et al., 1971), are matoporphyrin derivative (HPD) on a differentiating system. c
It is shown by FT IR that neither a dihematoporphyrin ether nor a dihematoporphyrin ester can be supported as the structure for the major component of photofrin II which is used in phokradiation therapy.
We report the photodegradation of the three different photosensitizers derived from hematoporphyrin. In this paper we use the term phototransformation for describing the photodegradation or photobleaching process. This photodegradation alters the fluorescence during illumination. The rate of fluores
## Abstract Two prostate tumour models (Dunning R3327H and AT) were tested in rats to see if they were sensitive to hematoporphyrin‐photoradiation therapy (HPD‐PRT). The R3327H tumours were irradiated by implantation of a single fiber optic and the R3327 AT tumours were treated with implantation of
