摘要
The effect of drugs on the permeability of cell membranes has been related to their surface activity. It was of interest, therefore, to determine the influence of UV irradiation on the surface activity of a series of potential photosensitizers. Solutions of five phenothiazine drugs (1 × 10−4 M) were prepared in an acetate buffer. The solutions were exposed to UV irradiation and the surface pressure determined at fixed intervals by the Wilhelmy plate method. Chlorpromazine and prochlorperazine showed an increase in surface pressure during irradiation. Promazine showed no surface activity either before or after irradiation. Triflupromazine and trifluoperazine exhibited a decrease in surface pressure during irradiation. Both chlorpromazine and prochlorperazine have been clearly established as photosensitizers. The other drugs studied, except for a few isolated instances, have not been reported as photosensitizers. Thus, there appears to be a relationship between an increase in surface activity induced by irradiating a drug and the drug's in vivo photosensitizing properties.
