The design of photobiological active photosensitizing molecular model for photodynamic therapy has been attracted as a research for the development of cancer treatment, and has been interested in the effective method for cancer treatment and the photosensitizer having more stable wavelength. Furthermore, the development of photosensitizer has been already carried out from the first generation molecule to the third one, and the research of smart photosensitizer as the fourth generation has been requested. As a fact, the selective killing of the only cancer cell is very difficult problem, and the present photodynamic therapy has the problem of killing of the normal cell. So, I have designed the new modelling of photosensitizer having the smart recognizing unit and the magnetic nanoparticle as well as having the several effective recognizing unit. In particular, the new model design of the photosensitizer having lanthanide metal has suggested for the development of photodynamic therapy. The model design of these new photosensitizing molecules will be introduced in the poster section for the new turning point of the development of photosensitizer.

For the purpose of annihilating tumor in body, hematoporphyrin as a photosensitizer was coated onto magnetic particles of $Fe_3O_4$ prepared by coprecipitation which could be concentrated around the tumor by magnetic field. The photosensitizer was applied differently before, during and after adsorbing the 1st surfactant on the particles. Its added amount was $5{\times}10^{-4}/mol$, and the coating reaction proceeded at temperatures of 60, 70 and 8$0^{\circ}C$. The amounts of photosensitizer coated on the magnetic particles were obtained by calculating an optical density with the maximum UV spectrum. As a result of the UV analysis, the coating amount of photosensitizer increased with higher reaction temperatures. When applied at 8$0^{\circ}C$ after adsorbing the 1st surfactant, the photosensitizer was coated with a maximum value of $3.8{\times}10^{-3}/mo1/$\ell$$. The TGA analysis revealed that the ferrofluids included the particles of 30.115 g/$\ell$. It was suggested that the magnetite particles was coated with photosensitizer of $1.26{\times}10^{-4}/mo1/g$. A small-sized device for magnetic field and light emission was designed, in which LED sheets coverts the permanent magnet of Nd-Fe-B. The LED sheet was connected in series circuit and also protected with a silicon tube. The power was supplied with rechargable battery of 9V and 100-120mA.

Selective accumulation of a photosensitizer and the subsequent response in only the light-irradiated target are advantages of photodynamic diagnosis and therapy. The limited depth of the therapeutic effect is a positive characteristic when treating surface malignancies, such as peritoneal carcinomatosis. For photodynamic diagnosis (PDD), adjunctive use of aminolevulinic acid- protoporphyrin IX-guided fluorescence imaging detects cancer nodules, which would have been missed during assessment using white light visualization only. Furthermore, since few side effects have been reported, this has the potential to become a vital component of diagnostic laparoscopy. A variety of photosensitizers have been examined for photodynamic therapy (PDT), and treatment protocols are heterogeneous in terms of photosensitizer type and dose, photosensitizer-light time interval, and light source wavelength, dose, and dose rate. Although several studies have suggested that PDT has favorable effects in peritoneal carcinomatosis, clinical trials in more homogenous patient groups are required to identify the true benefits. In addition, major complications, such as bowel perforation and capillary leak syndrome, need to be reduced. In the long term, PDD and PDT are likely to be successful therapeutic options for patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis, with several options to optimize the photosensitizer and light delivery parameters to improve safety and efficacy.

In order to investigate the effect to antioxygenic substances in Pine Needles on the photooxidation of linoleic acid (linoleic acid 100mg/10ml ethanol) added antioxidants and antioxygenic substances in Pine Needles was irradiated by the tungsten lamp attached with red fitter. The Photo oxidation of linoleic acid (LA) was conformed with Lea method and rhodan method. The following results were obtained: 1. Photooxidation of LA was greatly increased the presence of photosensitizer. However the Photo oxidation of LA without photosensitizer was smoothly increased by the irradiation. 2. The Photo oxidation of LA without irradiation occured quite lately whether photosensitizer was present or absent. 3. Photooxidation of LA under the presence of photosensitizer was inhibited by the addition of $dl-{\alpha}-tocopherol$ and the acetone fraction of methanol extract of Pine Needles but inhibited by BHT. Photooxidation of LA increased gradually as the addition of BHT increased but decreased gradually as that of acetone fraction increased.

Photodynamic diagnosis(PDD) is a method to diagnose the possibility of cancer, both by the principle that if a photosensitizer is injected into an organic tissue, it is accumulated in the tissue of a malignant tumor selectively after a specific period, and by a comparison of the intensity of the fluorescence of normal tissue with abnormal tissue after investigating the excitation light of a tissue with accumulated photosensitizer. Since the selection of the wavelength band of excitation light has an interrelation with fluorescence generation according to the selection of a photosencitizer, it plays an important role in POD. This study aims at designing and evaluating light source devices that can stably generate light with various kinds of wavelengths In order to make possible PDD using a photosensitizer and diagnosis using auto-fluorescence. The light source device was a Xenon lamp and filter wheel, composed of an optical output control through Iris and filters with several wavelength bands It also makes the inducement of auto-fluorescence possible because it is designed to generate a wavelength band of 380-400. The transmission part of the light source was, developed to enhance the efficiency of light transmission. To evaluate this light source device, the characteristics of the light output and wavelength band were verified. To validate the capability of this device as PDD the detection of auto-fluorescence using mouse was performed.

We prepared the photorefractive sol-gel glass based on organic-inorganic hybrid materials containing a charge transporting molecule, second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophore, photosensitizer, and plasticizer. Carbazole and 2-{ 4-[(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-methyl-amino]-benzylidene}-malononitrile were reacted with isocyanato-triethoxy silane and the functionalized silanes were employed to fabricate the efficient photorefractive media induding 2,4,7-trinitrot1uorenone (TNF) to form a charge transfer complex. The prepared sol-gel glass samples showed a large net gain coefficient and high diffraction efficiency at a certain composition. As the concentration of photosensitizer increased, the photorefractive properties were enhanced due to an increment of charge carrier density. Dynamic behavior of the diffraction efficiency was also investigated with the concentration of the photosensitizer.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a newly established treatment for solid tumors, involves the systemic administration of a tumor localizing photosensitizer that is only activated when exposed to light of appropriate wavelength. Photoactivation of photosensitizer in the presence of oxygen results in the formation of highly cytotoxic molecular species, which precipitates necrosis. PDT has now become a promising means for the treatment of cancer due to its specificity, relatively minimal side effects, and inexpensive. However, the application of PDT has been restricted to the treatment of superficial lesions or the use of interstitial light delivery. A single photon generally activates the photochemical reaction in traditional PDT. However the use of multi photon excitation, where two or more photons simultaneously excite a photosensitizer, allows for the use of wavelengths twice as long. Such wavelengths exhibit better transmittance through tissue and thereby deeper penetration is achieved. This paper will review theoretical principles of multi photon excitation, challenges associated with multi photon PDT and update the current and future role of multi photon PDT in cancer.

To investigate in influence of photosensitizer used with benzophenone(BP) in the curing rate and physical properties of UV curable hard coating on plastic, we prepared UV curable clear and pigmented coatings with DEA, DMA, NPM and TEA as photosensitizer, respectively. The curing rate calculated from the decrease of the absorbance of acrylic double bond measured by FT-IR spectroscopy increased s follows; DEA>DMA>NPM>TEA. this order could be explained by the reactivity of diethylamino group of DEA and the ease of formation of activated complex between BP and photosensitizer during the curing process. In UV curable pigmented coatings, the order of curing rate increased as follows; DEA>DMA>TEA>NPM. It was found that the curing rate of the pigmented coating can be increased by light scattering of TiO$_2$. The hardness of coating film cured by photosensitization of DEA and DMA is higher than other photosensitizers due to the crosslinking reaction of DEA and DMA radical bound to polymer backbone.

Two diketones, 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione(PD) and 2,3-butanedione (BD) were investigated as new visible light photosensitizers for a dental resin composite of bis-GMA in order to improve photopolymerization effect. And the photopolymerization efficiency of mixed photosensitizers, PD-CQ and DA-CQ, was studied. Photopolymerization effect of photosensitizers were compared with that of camphorquinone(CQ), the most widely used photosensitizer. The photopolymerization efficiency of bis-GMA containing the photosensitizer increased with irradiation time. The increase was in the order: BD < CQ < PD. The photopolymerization efficiency of this mixture was not so efficient as CQ or PD.
