Phospholipid-Porphyrin (PL-Por) conjugates are unique building blocks that can self assemble into liposome-like structures with improved photophysical properties compared to their monomeric counterparts. The high packing density of porphyrin moieties enables these assemblies to exhibit high photothermal conversion efficiency as well as photodynamic activity. Thus, PL-Por conjugates assemblies can be used for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) applications against resistant bacteria and biofilms. In order to tune the PD/PT properties of such nanosystems, we developed six different supramolecular assemblies composed of newly synthesized PL-Por conjugates bearing either pheophorbide-a (Ph x LPC) or pyropheophorbide-a (Pyr x LPC) PSs for combined PDT/PTT against planktonic bacteria and their biofilms. In this study, the influence of the chemical structure of the phospholipid backbone as well as that of the PS on the photothermal conversion efficiency, the photodynamic activity and the stability of these assemblies in biological medium were determined. Then their antimicrobial efficiency was assessed on S. aureus and P. aeruginosa planktonic cultures and biofilms. The two studied systems show almost the same photothermal effect against planktonic cultures and
