Comparative study of interaction between surfactant and hyaluronan and different polyelectrolytes.
Stiborský, Filip ; Pravda,, Martin (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
In this diploma thesis, the interactions between polyelectrolyte and surfactant at low and also at high concentration were studied. There was used pyrene as fluorescent probe during the fluorescence spectroscopy measurement, a cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and as a main polyelectolyte has been chosen sodium polystyrene sulfonate at 1 MDa molecular size. In the medium containing 0.15 M NaCl we could observed a creation of the complexes – precipitates in the surrounding of CMC concentration and behind of this concentration. In the mixtures containing sodium polystyrene sulfonate and hyaluronan together, there was stronger tend to keep aggregation properties of sodium polystyrene sulfonate during difference concentration ratios. Beyond CMC concentration, hyaluronan starts to influence the aggregation properties of the system as well.

Ionogenic fluorescence probes in research of colloidal system
Střondalová, Hana ; Burgert,, Ladislav (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This diploma thesis studied the interaction of ionic and amphiphilic fluorescent probes with polyelectrolytes. The research of such colloidal system could be helpful in deeper understanding of interactions between polyelectrolytes and surfactants. The aim of this thesis was to determine whether ionic or amphiphilic probes are suitable for this research. Two polyelectrolytes, sodium polystyrene sulfonate and hyaluronan were used in this study. Interactions of polyelectrolytes with fluorescent probes (4-Di-2-Asp, methylene blue, dodecyl acridine orange, DiO and DiA) were studied in this work. Then cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylamonium bromide was added to this system. Samples were studied using fluorescence and UV/VIS spectroscopy. Emission and absorption spectra of these probes were recorded. This experiment was based on hypothesis that due to positive charge these probes will bind to the negatively charged polyelectrolyte. Formation of dimers or other aggegates was presumed for fluorescent probes dodecyl acridine orange and methylene blue. When 4-Di-2-Asp was used,changes in fluorescence intensity and absorption spectra in connection with possible formation of aggregates was supposed to be observed. It should be noted that formation of dimers for 4-Di-2-Asp is not described in literature. The formation of dimers wasn't clearly demonstrated during the measurement. Formation of dimers was observed only with dodecyl acridine orange. Probes DiO and DiA were used only in the study of the interaction with polyelectrolytes. These fluorescent probes showed up as inappropriate, because they adsorbed on tube walls. When cationic surfactant was added to hyaluronan-fluorescent probe system, surfactant pushed away fluorescent probe and bonded electrostatically to negatively charged groups of polyelectrolyte.

Diffusion properties of oppositely charged organic molecules in solutions of hydrophilic polyelectrolyte
Rýcová, Eva ; Márová, Ivana (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This work is focused on physical interactions of negatively charged polymers with small ionogenic fluorescent molecules. Trying to verify the presence of these interactions using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and provides a comprehensive view of the problem. The aim of this work is to observe the effect of concentration on the diffusion properties. P/D ratio, where P represents number of polymer binding sites and D number of dye binding sites, was chosen for this issue. Hyaluronate, sodium chondroitin sulfate and sodium polystyrene sulfonace were used as polymers and Acridine Orange, and Rhodamine 6G were chosen as fluorescent probes. The reason why this experiment uses these probes, was the assumption, that the positive charge occuring on the fluorescent probe will lead to the electrostatic interaction with the negatively charged polymer. As a result, the bond between acridine orange and polyelectrolyte was not clearly demonstrated, but the interaction with Rhodamine 6G have been proved.
