Significant Inhibition of Tumor Growth following Single Dose Nanoparticle-Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy

<table>Nanoparticle characterization. (a) TEM images of MSN-PdTPP nanoparticles (scale bar: 100 nm). (b) Well-ordered porous structure of MSN-PdTPP (scale bar: 100 nm). (c) Pore size distribution of (A) MSN and (B) MSN-PdTPP derived from desorption isotherm measurements and BJH method. (d) UV-visible absorption spectra of PdTPP and MSN-PdTPP in DI water and methanol. (e) Nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms of (A) MSN and (B) MSN-PdTPP.</table>
