Production and characterization of nanoporous alumina membranes
Šimik, Milan ; Márik, Marian (referee) ; Kynclová, Hana (advisor)
The Bachelor thesis mostly deals with manufacturing of membranes with anodic oxidation of aluminium in different conditions. In theoretical part are studied processes leading to creating of porous alumina and methods of measuring permeability of membranes. Practical part is aimed on manufacturing porous alumina with different conditions, which are afterwards suffused into form and diffuse characterized. Measured parametres are interpreted and compared with each other.

Electrochemical sensor for ascorbic acid detection
Hlavička, Michal ; Kynclová, Hana (referee) ; Majzlíková, Petra (advisor)
This work deals with electrochemical detection of ascorbic acid using screen-printed three-electrode sensors. The work is divided into three parts, where the first describes the theory of thick-film technology, including the types and compositions of the pastes, fabrication and firing. The second part deals with the methods, measurement principles and the electrochemical detection of ascorbic acid. Experiments were done using screen-printed carbon electrodes in a solution of phosphate buffer and ascorbic acid. In conclusion the results are evaluated.

Study of DNA-doxorubicine interaction by electrochemical methods on nanostructured electrodes
Přibyl, Jakub ; Fohlerová, Zdenka (referee) ; Kynclová, Hana (advisor)
Cancer diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, for this reason, great attention anticancer drugs. Doxorubicin falls into the category of the most widely used cancer drugs. The method of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were investigated properties of golds electrodes without deposit nanoparticles and electrodes with deposit gold nanoparticles. Using voltammetric measurements we detected doxorubicin and investigated the interaction of doxorubicin with oligonucleotides on gold electrodes without nanoparticles and electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles.

Electrochemical Characterization of Nanostructured Surfaces Modified by Substancies with Thiol Bound
Urbánková, Kateřina ; Kynclová, Hana (referee) ; Hrdý, Radim (advisor)
This master thesis deals with nanotechnology, nanoparticles and nanostructured surfaces, electrochemical methods, especially voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and contact angle measurement. One part is focused on electrodes primarily nanostructured and modified by substancies with thiol bound. Tutorial for preparation of gold nanostructured electrods is introduced in practical section including SEM photos of electrode surface. Nanostructured and bare gold electrodes were modified by 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid, streptavidin, glycine and biotin and measured by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and contact angle.

Electrochemical propertiesand thermal stability of cup-like shape gold nanostructures
Kynclová, H.
Nanostructured surfaces are useful in enlargement of electroactive area of sensing electrodes. The electrodes are very sensitive with maintaining small electrode geometry. In this study, surfaces modified by cup-like gold nanoparticles were fabricated by electrochemical methods. Subsequently, electrochemical properties and thermal stability of fabricated nanostructured electrodes were studied. Thereafter, the electrochemical results were compared with unmodified flat gold layer and contribution of nanostructuring was evaluated. Stability of nanoparticles after thermal vacuum and air pressure treatment was studied using scanning electron microscope. These results are useful for subsequent research of nanostructured sensors.
