Formation of polyelectrolyte microcapsules with chemically bound adsorbed molecules of fluorescein isotiocyanate and their destruction under laser action

Polyelectrolyte capsules with molecules of fluorescein isotiocyanate included in the shell have been obtained. The inclusion of dye molecules in the shell of the capsule allows the photosensibilized destruction of its structure. The measurements of the fluorescence intensity of a dye that was present in the shell revealed effective dissipation of the energy of photoexcited molecules by the surrounding organic matrix. The capsule suspension was irradiated by a laser in the absorption band of fluorescein isotiocyanate molecules. By measuring the size distribution of the capsules before and after irradiation with a laser it was shown that the capsules are destroyed under the effect of laser radiation.
