A photosensitizer, meso-tetra(4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin, was incorporated into sub-150 nm nanoparticles using the emulsification-diffusion technique in order to perform sterilization by filtration using 0.22 microm membranes. The three selected polyesters (poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide), (50:50 PLGA, 75:25 PLGA) and poly(D,L-lactide (PLA)) for the nanoparticle production
