    • In this work a systematic study of the photophysical properties of four cationic porphyrins in liposomes is performed and results are compared with those found in homogeneous media.
    • These observations suggest that the generation of 102 by lipophilic porphyrins occurs within the bilayer, which is also the site of damage.
    • It should also be noted that the doming deformation in the NSD context does not involve the iron, but only the 24 atoms of the porphyrin ring.
    • The NSD method has been used extensively to describe and analyze the out-of-plane distortions of porphyrins in heme proteins.
