The invention relates to platinum complexes and their use in biomedical applications, like in vitro and in vivo imaging and cell staining. The present invention provides new materials and their use as imaging agent. The formation of luminescent aggregates can allow a switch of the emission leading to a dynamic label and on the formation of soft assemblies, which, in some cases, are even more emissive than the isolated corresponding species.

Platinum complexes and their use

A method for the manufacture of a photosensitizing nanomaterial () and the products thereof are disclosed. The method for the treatment of a biological target () is disclosed. The photosensitizing nanomaterial () comprises a metal complex tetrapyrrole derivative (). The metal complex tetrapyrrole derivative () is attached by an axial covalent bond () to the surface () of a solid nanomaterial (). The solid nanomaterial () has at least one dimension in the nanometer and/or the micrometer range.
