Photo finish: A polymeric micelle system is formed in aqueous media by electrostatic assembly of an anionic dendrimeric porphyrin and a poly(ethylene glycol)–poly(L-lysine) block copolymer (see picture). The micelles exhibit high photocytotoxicity and stability. The hydrodynamic size (ca. 60 nm) makes this polymeric micelle system suitable for intravenous administration in photodynamic tumor therapy.
