Voltammetric Techniques for Analysis in a Single Drop of a Solution
Gajdar, J. ; Goněc, T. ; Jampílek, J. ; Brázdová, Marie ; Bábková, Zuzana ; Fojta, Miroslav ; Barek, J. ; Fischer, J.
This contribution describes miniaturization of voltammetric methods and some of the main problems caused by reducing the sample volume to 20 mu L. This study was carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide solutions and buffered aqueous solutions with 10% DMSO at a glassy carbon electrode. A novel antibiotic agent, 1-hydroxy-N-(4-nitrophenyl) naphthalene-2-carboxamide, was used as a model substance. This analyte was determined by cathodic and anodic voltammetry. Elimination of the negative influence of dissolved oxygen was performed in various manners. Two most effective methods were square wave voltammetry that can be used in the presence of dissolved oxygen and removal of oxygen in a microcell with nitrogen atmosphere inside.

Construction and Application of Flow Amperometric Biosensor Based on Enzymatic Reactor for Determination of Choline
Tvorynska, Sofiia ; Barek, J. ; Josypčuk, Bohdan
In this contribution, a novel fast, simple and stable biosensor with the enzymatic reactor based on choline oxidase (ChOx) was developed and applied for the determination of choline using flow injection analysis with amperometric detection. The preparation of the reactor is based on the covalent immobilization of ChOx with glutaraldehyde to mesoporous silica powder (SBA-15) previously covered by NH2-groups. The experimental parameters affecting the sensitivity and stability of the biosensor were optimized. The proposed biosensor with the newly developed ChOx-based reactor possesses good repeatability, reproducibility, long-term stability, and reusability. It was successfully applied for the determination of choline in commercial pharmaceuticals.

Electrochemical Enzymatic Biosensors for Determination of Catecholamines in Flow Systems
Josypčuk, Bohdan ; Barek, J. ; Josypčuk, Oksana
Several biosensors (BS) based on flow enzymatic mini-reactors containing a mesoporous silica powder covered by enzyme laccase or tyrosinase were used for determination of L-DOPA, dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. The silica powder of MCM-41 with covalently bonded laccase was found to be the best reactor filling for the detection of catecholamines. Relative current response of such BS was 100 % for dopamine, 32.1 % for L-DOPA, 26.2 % for noradrenaline, and 0.71 % for adrenaline. The practical applicability of Lac-MCM41 biosensor was successfully verified by the determination of dopamine and noradrenaline in medical solutions for infusions.

Voltammetric and Amperometric Determination of Nitrophenols Using Boron-Doped Diamond Film Electrode
Karaová, Jana ; Barek, Jiří (vedoucí práce) ; Šelešovská, Renáta (oponent) ; Jaklová Dytrtová, Jana (oponent)
Tato práce je věnována použití borem dopované diamantové (BDD) elektrody pro voltametrické a amperometrické stanovení vybraných nitrofenolů - 2-nitrofenolu (2NP), 4-nitrofenolu (4NP) a 2,4-dinitrofenolu (2,4DNP). Tyto látky jsou vedeny v seznamu United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) jako významné polutanty, neboť mají negativní vliv na organismy. V zemědělství jsou používány jako hnojiva - stimulátory růstu. BDD elektrody jsou používány pro stanovení širokého spektra jak oxidovatelných, tak redukovatelných látek, a pro svoji dostupnost a vynikající mechanické a elektrochemické vlastnosti se staly populárním elektrodovým materiálem. Pro stanovení nitrofenolů byla použita diferenční pulsní voltametrie, a to s použitím jak redukce (pro 2NP, 4NP a 2,4DNP), tak i oxidace (pro 4NP a 2,4DNP). Metoda byla úspěšně aplikována pro stanovení těchto látek v pitné a říční vodě v koncentračním rozsahu od 4×10-7 do 2×10-5 mol.L-1 . Po použití prekoncentrace pomocí extrakce tuhou fází ze 100 ml a z 1000 ml vzorků vody bylo dosaženo meze stanovitelnosti pro tyto látky 2×10-8 mol.L-1 (vzorky pitné vody) a 2×10-7 mol.L-1 (vzorky říční vody). Pro stanovení nitrofenolů byla BDD elektroda úspěšně použita také jako amperometrický detektor ve wall-jet uspořádání pro vysokoúčinnou kapalinovou chromatografii...

Voltammetric Determination of Tumor Biomarkers using Flow Injection Analysis with Amperometric Detection
Němečková-Makrlíková, Anna ; Matysik, F.-M. ; Navrátil, Tomáš ; Barek, J. ; Vyskočil, V.
Three tumor biomarkers (homovanillic acid, vanillylmandelic acid, and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid) have been determined by flow injection analysis with amperometric detection at screen-printed carbon electrodes in optimum medium of Britton-Robinson buffer (0.04 mol l(-1), pH = 2.0). Dependences of the peaks current on the concentration of biomarkers were linear in the tested concentration region from 0.05 to 100 mu mol l(-1), with the limits of detection of 0.065 mu mol l(-1) for homovanillic acid, 0.053 mu mol l(-1) for vanillylmandelic acid, and 0.033 mu mol l(-1) for 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (calculated from heights), and 0.024 mu mol l(-1) for homovanillic acid, 0.020 mu mol l(-1) for vanillylmandelic acid, and 0.012 mu mol l(-1) for 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (calculated fromareas), respectively.

HPLC-ED/UV for determination of vanillylmandelic acid in human urine after solid phase extraction
Němečková-Makrlíková, Anna ; Dejmková, H. ; Navrátil, Tomáš ; Barek, J. ; Vyskočil, V.
HPLC with electrochemical and spectrophotometric detection (ED/UV) after solid phase extraction (SPE) was used for determination of vanillylmandelic acid in human urine. HPLC-ED was performed at a glassy carbon electrode in a “wall-jet” arrangement in acetate-phosphate buffer at pH = 2.5 and gradient elution (increasing content of\nacetonitrile from 5 to 25% in 10 minutes) was used. Optimized parameters were following: flow rate of mobile phase 1 mL min−1, detection potential +1.1 V, detection wavelength 279 nm, injected volume 20 μL. Dependence of the peak current on the analyte concentration was linear in the concentration range from 10 to 150 μmol L−1, with obtained limits of detection 2.6 μmol L−1 (calculated from peak height) and 1.9 μmol L−1 (calculated from peak area) for HPLC-ED, and 11.0 μmol L−1 (calculated from peak height) and 9.8 μmol L−1 (calculated from peak area) for HPLC-UV.
