Fig. 3: Size analysis of in situ generated CTPF through photocleavage of PhoCl1 using dynamic light scattering (DLS).

A Size analysis of the unexposed and photoexposed PhoCl1 (6 h) samples to track in situ generation and aggregation of CTPF following photoexposure. The unexposed PhoCl1 showed a maximum and almost unaltered population (1–25 nm peak) throughout the experiment from 0 h (black solid line) to 6 h (green solid line). The photoexposed PhoCl1 displayed a decrease in the population of PhoCl1 (6–7 nm peak, red dashed line) following the photocleavage while the in situ generated CTPF displayed a size of 1224 ± 275 nm (red dashed line), indicative of aggregation. B Size analysis of pure CTPF is indicative of aggregates with a size range of 477 ± 79 nm.
