Isotachophoretic determination of ketone bodies and lactate in cattle serum
Vyskočilová, V. ; Pechová, A. ; Pantůčková, Pavla
The aim of the work was the optimization of isotachophoretic determination of lactate and ketone bodies (beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate) for veterinary medicine. The measurement of these metabolites is very important for the evaluation of metabolic diseases of cattle. The complete separation of these three analytes together with other possible blood components was achieved using 10 mmol/l hydrochloric acid with beta-alanine as a leading electrolyte at pH = 3.15 and 10 mmol/l sodium propionate as a terminating electrolyte. Limits of detection determined from the standard mixture for acetoacetate, lactate and beta-hydroxybutyrate were 3.75 mu mol/l, 3.96 mu mol/l and 7.46 mu mol/l, respectively.

Polymer inclusion membranes open new way in practical use of in-line coupling of microextraction to CZE
Pantůčková, Pavla ; Kubáň, Pavel ; Boček, Petr
Polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) have several important features, i.e., PIMs are dry and non-porous membranes, which can be prepared ahead of use and stored without noticeable deterioration in extraction performance. In-line coupling of microextractions across PIMs to commercial capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) instrument has been demonstrated in this contribution. Purpose-made microextraction devices with PIMs were applied, which ensured complete automation of the entire analytical procedure. Practical 169 applicability of the hyphenated analytical method was demonstrated on direct extraction, injection, CZE separation and quantification of formate (the major metabolite in methanol poisoning) in clinical samples.

Electrophoretic mobility measurements of a multivalent red dye SPADNS
Pantůčková, Pavla ; Kubáň, Pavel ; Boček, Petr
Measurements of the electrophoretic mobility of an anionic dye 4,5-dihydroxy-3-(p-sulfophenylazo)-2,7- naphthalene disulfonic acid trisodium salt (SPADNS), which is a commonly used anionic dye, are described in this contribution. Electrophoretic mobilities of SPADNS were measured in various buffer solutions covering the pH range of 2.4–9.1. Effective electrophoretic mobilities of SPADNS measured in these buffers varied between 50.5 x 10–9 m2/Vs and 60.5 x 10–9 m2/Vs with an average effective mobility of 55.0 x 10–9 m2/Vs.
