Study of surface tension of systems applied in ultrasonography.
Říkovská, Klára ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
Surface tension of sonography systems was investigated using several experiments. These experiments were comprised of measurements of surface tension using BPA-800P tensiometer. The influence of surface tension of commercial substance SonoVue®, which contains in its structure two types of phospholipids, was studied more detailed. Other phospholipids were studied to comparison with SonoVue®. All substances were dissolved in saline (0,15 M NaCl). Effect of gas type on microbubbles formation and surface tension was investigated. Some samples were studied using du Nüy ring method. It was found that gas constructing the microbubbles (air or SF6) has no impact to the surface tension value. Production of foam on the surface of solutions has an impact on the value of the surface tension. This foam degreases the surface tension. Gas pressure is significant to comparison of measured data.

Theranostic systems in sonography
Říkovská, Klára ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This work deals with preparation of microbubble suspension from a mixture of phospholipids, palmitic acid and polyethylene glycol. Properties of prepared systems were studied using bubble tensiometry and dynamic light scattering method and were compared with commercial contrast agent SonoVue®. Suspensions were prepared in various conditions including different atmosphere and increased temperature in some steps of preparation and different solution. Effect of polyethylene glycol addition on surface activity of the system was studied. Surface activity of phospholipids was insignificant. Surface tension decreased with increasing concentration and molecular weight of polyethylene glycol in the system. Effect of different atmosphere and increased temperature showed no substantial trend. It emerged that dynamic light scattering is not suitable for this type of samples because of high polydispersity and phase separation of the system.
