Gallium 3 meso tetraphenylporphyrine chloride gatp

All chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich unless otherwise stated. Gallium(III) meso tetraphenylporphyrine chloride (GaTP) was purchased from Frontier Scientific (Logan, Utah, USA). NMR spectroscopies were recorded on a Varian Unity/Inova-500 NB (500 MHz, Varian Medical Systems Inc. Palo Alto, CA, USA). Chemical shifts are reported in parts per million (ppm) downfield from TMS. A Hitachi S4700 Field-Emission Scanning electron microscope (SEM, Hitachi High Technologies America, Inc., Schaumburg, IL, USA) was used for images of nanoparticles. Confocal images were obtained using a Zeiss LSM 510 or 710 laser scanning microscope (Carl Zeiss, Inc. Thornwood, NY. USA).

Gallium(III) meso-tetraphenylporphyrine chloride (GaTP) was purchased from Frontier Scientific (Logan, UT, USA). Nanoparticles were formulated, manufactured using a high-pressure homogenizer, and characterized by dynamic light scattering and SEM as described for our previously reported procedure (8 (link), 44 (link)).
