Resonance energy transfer in the environment of the hydrogel matrix
Janča, David ; Venerová, Tereza (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with resonance energy transfer in hydrogel matrix enviroment. In the theoretical part, all the important features of these systems and their components are summarized and all the principles for explaining the method used are described. The work also includes a short literary background research. In the experimental part, the resonance energy transfer was measured in micellar solutions and hydrogels in 0.15 M NaCl medium. The hydrogels were formed on the basis of interaction of the surfactant with the oppositely charged polyelectrolyte. As a positively charged surfactant, carbethopendecinium bromide (Septonex) was chosen and hyaluronan as the negatively charged polyelectrolyte. Perylene with fluorescein and perylene were selected as fluorescent pairs for RET. It has been found that increasing concentration of the acceptor molecule increases the intensity of RET, in other word the rate of acceptor binding to the donor. In the study of fluorescent pair of perylene with DiO was observed, that it was not appropriate to use fluorescence probe DiO at higher concentrations. Experiments were carried out to determine whether RET changes in the time from the point of mixing the donor and acceptor fluorescence probes together. This phenomenon has not been confirmed. In hydrogels, the effect of increasing surfactant concentration and molecular weight of hyaluronan was observed. The resulting analysis showed that the molecular weight of hyaluronan has a significant effect on RET efficiency in hydrogels.
