It has been shown by the results-of HPLC analysis in combination with spectrographicdeterminations that PsD-007 is composed of 7 different porphyrins

In order of the proportion inPsD-007

they are:3 （or 8）-（l-methoxyethyl）-8 （or 3）-（l-hydroxyethyl）-deuteroporphyrin Ⅸ（MHD）;3

8-di-（l-methoxyethyl）-deuteroporphyrin Ⅸ（DMD）;3（or 8）-（l-methoxyethyl）-8 （or3）-vinyl-deuteroporphyrin Ⅸ（MVD）;3（or 8）-（l-hydroxyethyl）-8（or 3）-vinyl-deuteroporphyrin Ⅸ（HVD）;hernatoporphyrin Ⅸ （Hp）;protoporphyrin Ⅸ （Pp） and 3（or 8）-（O-aceylethyl）-8（or 3）-（l-hydroxyethyl）-deuteroporphrin Ⅸ （AHD）

which presented only in crude PsD-007 and hasbeen transformed into MHD and Hp

respectively during the separation and preparing the clinicalpreparation of PsD-007.Structures of these porphyrins were further eonfirmed by the corre-sponding anthentic samples obtained by synthetic method.It was found on the basis of the experi-mental data of photosensitizing ability in cell-free systems and photoinactivation of human cancercells in vitro as well as efficacy of photodynamic therapy for sarcoma.S

in mice of the ma-jor components MILD

DMD and MVD composed of which more over 85% of the totalamount of PsD-007

that they all exhibited comparatively high photosensitizing ability andphotodynamic effects on cancer cells and tram-planted animal tumor.
