27. Some authors explain analogous results obtained with related macrocycles in terms an increase in the correlation time of the porphyrin nuclei upon inclusion into the micellar core. See, for example, S. Mazumdar, S. Mitra, Structure and Bonding, Vol. 81, Springer, Berlin, 1993, pp. 115-145. We suggest that other effects like aggregate growth could play also a role.
