With the increased risk of infectious disease transmissions, photodynamic inactivation of some microorganisms for antimicrobial applications has been extensively studied in recent years. In this article, we describe the synthesis of novel photo-bactericidal materials by grafting propargylated 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrin on !craft pulp fibers. The grafting was carried out by a Huisgen's 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. This material has been investigated for its antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. An interesting photo-bactericidal activity was shown: this material can be used to limit the growth of bacteria on surfaces and the formation of biofilms.< Réduire
