Cieľom tejto bakalárskej práce bolo zhodnotiť využiteľnosť vybranej metódy vibračnej spektroskopie pre kvalitatívnu a kvantitatívnu analýzu biomasy, ktorá obsahuje polyhydroxyalkanoáty. Bola zvolená metóda infračervenej spektroskopie s Fourierovou transformáciou, ktorá využíva tzv. zoslabený úplný odraz (ATR-FTIR). Poly(3-hydroxybutyrát-co-4-hydroxybutyrát) bol skúmaný v baktériách Cupriavidus malaysiensis, Thermomonas hydrothermalis a Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus sp. H1. Vyhodnotením infračervených spektier boli získané dáta, ktoré sa následne porovnali s výsledkami prevedenej plynovej chromatografie. Boli tiež pozorované vizuálne zmeny v spektrách a stav kryštalinity. Pri kvantitatívnej analýze kopolyméru v biomase metódou ATR-FTIR nebola pozorovaná korelácia dát s výsledkami plynovej chromatografie. Táto metóda teda nie je vhodná pre stanovenie celkového obsahu poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) v biomase v prípade nami nastaveného experimentu a použitých baktérií. Na druhej strane bola daná metóda úspešne využitá pri kvalitatívnej analýze kopolyméru in-situ v biomase producenta Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus sp. H1. Miera korelácie dát bola v danom experimente dosť vysoká. ATR-FTIR je teda vhodná analytická metóda pre stanovenie monomérneho zloženia kopolyméru poly(3-hydroxybutyrát-co-4-hydroxybutyrát) priamo v biomase pri tejto baktérií. Porovnaním s producentom Cupriavidus malaysiensis sa ukázalo, že táto metóda nie je univerzálna pre všetky typy nami skúmaných mikroorganizmov. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to evaluate the applicability of selected methods of vibrational spectroscopy for qualitative and quantitative analysis of biomass, which contains polyhydroxyalkanoates. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, that uses attenuated total reflection technique (ATR-FTIR), was chosen for this experiment. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) has been studied in Cupriavidus malaysiensis, Thermomonas hydrothermalis and Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus sp. H1. Data were obtained by evaluating the infrared spectra, which were then compared with the results of performed gas chromatography. Visual changes in the spectra were also observed along with crystallinity. No correlation was detected between the data obtained by gas chromatography and by the method ATR-FTIR in quantitative analysis. Thus, this method is not suitable for determining the content of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) in biomass in the set experiment and the bacteria used. On the other hand, the method was successfully used for in-situ qualitative analysis of copolymer in the samples of Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus sp. H1. The degree of data correlation was relatively high in the given experiment. With these findings, ATR-FTIR is a suitable analytical method for determining the monomer composition of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) in this strain. Comparison with the PHA producer Cupriavidus malaysiensis showed that this method is not universal for all types of microorganisms observed in this thesis.
