Determination of persistent organohalogen pollutants using GC/MS/MS methods
Grabic, Roman ; Pacáková, Věra (advisor) ; Ševčík, Jiří (referee) ; Matisová, Eva (referee)
Conclusions o MSiMS methods for analysis of PCDD/Fs, PCBs, OCPs, and PBDES were develoPed o GC separations were optimized for MS/MS detection methods o GC/MS/MS optimized methods were validated. o Limits of quantification at level 0.1 - I pg/pl were achieved. o Linear response over four orders of magnitude was achieved except for some OCPs. o The selectivity of methods is better or comparable with a reference HRMS method' o Cost of GC/MS/MS analysis is significantly lower comPared to GC/HRMS o Developed methods were successfully applied for o Human blood, milk and adipose tissue analysis o Studies of de novo synthesis and destruďion of halogenated POP o In vitro study of PCB accumulation in human cells o List of application is enclosed Page 12

The survey of xenobiotics for toxicological and pharmaceutical purposes
Bořek-Dohalský, Václav ; Feltl, Ladislav (advisor) ; Pacáková, Věra (referee) ; Fischer, Jan (referee) ; Majstřík, Viktor (referee)
L INTRODUCTION Processes in the nature and also in the human organism are affected by conditions of its running. People are notably affecting their living con- ditions both positively and unfortunately negatively. The environment is exposed to countless human interventions - social impacts, influence of physical factors and chemical compounds. The chemical products belong into many conquests of the modern civilization, which are inherent part of our life. Except their benefit they could also have the negative effect in many cases. Acquiring data for new chemical compounds that are extraneous to organisms (xenobiotics) is difficult, but it is much more difficult to describe the effect of xenobiot- ics onto the living organisms. Toxicology deals with the adverse effects of these compounds; pharmacology is the practice of searching for their bene- ficial effects. My PhD thesis looks at both of these branches. I was en- gaged in possibilities of alternative testing of the acute toxicity of binary mixtures and possibilities of predicting the acute toxicity using the phys- icochemical descriptors of these mixtures in terms of toxicology. In the section covering pharmacology I worked on the development and valida- tion of analytical methods for the determination of drugs in a biological matrix. I' IL lI lfr' ffi...

High-performance chromatographic methods for determination of proteins
Vařilová, Tereza ; Pacáková, Věra (advisor) ; Feltl, Ladislav (referee) ; Coufal, Pavel (referee) ; Kučerová, Zdenka (referee)
Conclusions This Thesis gives an overview of high-performance riquid chromatography in various separation modes for a characterization of selected proteins. various affinity stationary phases were prepared for analysis of pepsin, seminal plasma proteins and selected glycoproteins' choice of the affinity system suitable for a particular purpose is always a comprex probrem in which number of aspects must be considered. properties of the proteins to be separated and ligands used had to be taken into an account. The separation system should not influence the biorogicai activity ofproteins separated. From this point of view it is clear that for any each individuar system is necessary to find specific conditions for I) immobilizationof ligand, and II) separation conditions. Stationary phases with immob'ized 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine exhibited sufÍicient selectivity, proved to be useful for analysis ofporcine pepsin A and are appricable to practical sampres of human pepsin' Reversed-phase crs corumn is suitable for anarysis ofpepsin fragments obtained after a-chymotrypsin digestion. A study oť interaction of various forms of pepsin and pepsinogen are essentiar because of their high importance as crinicar diagnostic markers and as stomach enzyme.

Polymethacrylate monolithic columns in capillary liquid chromatography
Grafnetter, Jan ; Coufal, Pavel (advisor) ; Pacáková, Věra (referee) ; Ventura, Karel (referee) ; Sýkora, David (referee)
3 Conclusions This Thesis gives chromatographic and structural characteristics of the butyl methacrylate monolithic columns prepared for the capillary liquid chromatography. Results of this Thesis clearly demonstrate the possibility of preparation of capillary monolithic columns with a good repeatability of the principal chromatographic parameters. A completely new technique for preparation of the monolithic columns for use in the on-column detection mode was introduced. Different photometric detection modes were applied to monolithic capillary columns in CLC. The advantages and disadvantages of the on-column detection mode in comparison to the additional detection capillary were studied and described. It was shown that the best separation and the most sensitive quantification in the short analysis time could be reached by using the monolithic columns with detection window placed directry on the separation capillary, just after the stationary phase or within the monolith. The attempts leading to preparation of chiral monolithic stationary phases, which would allow enantioseparation of selected chiral analýes' were not totally successful. No time was left to find the suitable chromatographic conditions for enantioseparations. \ I
