Summary 3,8,13,17-Tetramethyl-7,12-dicarboxy-2,18-bis(octadecyloxycarbonylethyl) porphinato zinc (DCPZn) was incorporated into bilayer membrane of liposomes of 1,2-bis(2,4-octadecadienoyl)sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DODPC). The liposomes were polymerized by initiators like water-insoluble azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) or/and water-soluble azobis(amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPD). DCPZn does not disturb the molecular packing of DODPC in the bilayer and after the polymerization, DCPZn is fixed monomolecularly in the network of the crosslinked bilayer membrane, while in the monomeric bilayers the dispersion state of DCPZn depends on temperature and concentration.
