Electrochemical determination of 6-thioguanine at boron doped diamond film electrod
Humpolíková, Jiřina ; Fischer, Jan (advisor) ; Schwarzová, Karolina (referee)
This master's thesis is focused on the determination of 6-thioguanine (6-T) by DC voltammetry (DCV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and flow injection analysis with electrochemical detection (FIA-ED) on a boron doped diamond electrode (BDDFE). The optimum conditions for determination of 6-T were found and under these conditions, concentration dependences were measured and the limits of quantification (LOQ) were calculated for each method. Medium of 60% methanol and phosphate buffer (PB) pH 2,0 was chosen as optimum for DCV and DPV determination of 6-T at BDDFE. For both DCV and DPV, the linear concentration dependences were obtained in concentration ranges of 6-T from 2 µmol·l-1 to 10 µmol·l-1 with LOQ 0,9 µmol·l-1 for DCV and 1,5 µmol·l-1 for DPV. Lower LOQ was achieved in PB pH 2,0, where LOQ was 0,6 µmol·l-1 for both DCV and DPV, but the problem was lower repeatability. In PB pH 2 6-T was determined by DCV in drinking and river water with LOQ 1,3 µmol·l-1 in both drinking and river water. The possibility of solid phase extraction was investigated as a method for preliminary separation of 6-T from urine. For FIA under optimized conditions (polarization potential 1300 mV, flow rate 5 ml·min1 and sample volume 50 µl) the linear concentrations dependences were obtained in concentration ranges...

Determination of creatinine using pulsed amperometry
Giampaglia, Dominika ; Dejmková, Hana (advisor) ; Schwarzová, Karolina (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the determination of creatinine using a combination of flow injection analysis (FIA) or high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with pulse amperometry, an electrochemical technique based on the application of potential pulses on a gold working electrode. The determination was performed in a basic environment of borate buffer with creatinine concentration of 1∙10-4 mol∙l-1 . The lenght of the cleaning and activation pulse was optimized as well as the pH of the running buffer. A cleaning pulse of +1.8 V was first applied to the electrode for 100 ms, then an activation potential of -0.5 V was applied for 150 ms and then a measuring potential of +0.2 V for 300 ms. The optimal pH was selected as pH=9,4. Methanol and acetonitrile were added to the borate buffer to test whether creatinine could be determined in presence of these organic solvents and whether flow injection analysis could be transformed into HPLC. Methanol in the system caused peak deformation, acetonitrile did not cause the peak deformation in the system, at higher contents the baseline was destabilized. Furthermore, the calibration dependence in the range of concentrations from 2.5∙10-4 mol∙l-1 to 5∙10-6 mol ∙ l-1 was measured using PAD in combination with FIA. At higher concentrations, peaks splitted....

Utilization of potential programs in flow electrochemical determination of biologically active organic compounds
Bavol, Dmytro ; Dejmková, Hana (advisor) ; Josypčuk, Bohdan (referee) ; Metelka, Radovan (referee)
9 Abstract In this Ph.D. thesis possibilities of using our proposed potential programs for a multiple-pulse amperometry and a fast scan differential pulse voltammetry in combination with flow systems are presented. The development of new sensitive amperometric and voltammetric methods for the determination of oxidisable biologically active organic compounds is another aim of this work. In the first part of the work, the flow injection system and multiple-pulse amperometric detection were employed to develop and optimize a simple, low-cost, and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of natural and synthetic antioxidants. This technique involves the application of an appropriate potential waveform consisting of a suitable sequence of pulses on a single working electrode, thus allowing distinguish the analytes in a mixture with no need of separation. Conditions for the determination of antioxidants and modelling of the potential program were tested and studied, respectively. Second part of the work describes and characterizes the application of the fast scan differential pulse voltammetry (FSDPV) in combination with the flow systems. FSDPV is the electroanalytical technique that use high scan rate to record voltammograms within several milliseconds and ensures high temporal resolution. This technique...

Voltammetric and amperometric determination of homovanillic, vanillylmandelic, and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid
Němečková, Anna ; Barek, Jiří (advisor) ; Labuda, Ján (referee) ; Skopalová, Jana (referee)
Presented dissertation thesis is focused on the development of electrochemical methods for the determination of three important tumour biomarkers, namely homovanillic acid (HVA), vanillylmandelic acid (VMA), and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (5-HIAA). First part of the study is focused on electrochemical behaviour of these analytes in batch arrangement using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs). It has been proved that presented method is sufficiently sensitive for monitoring above mentioned analytes. Moreover, it can be used for determination of HVA and VMA in mixture. Obtained limits of detection (LODs) were 0.24 µmol·L-1 for HVA, 0.06 µmol·L-1 for VMA, and 0.12 µmol·L-1 for 5-HIAA. The requirements to speed up the analysis and at the same time to reduce its price initialized our study of the determination of tested biomarkers in flow systems. Firstly, flow injection analysis with amperometric detection was investigated for the determination of all three biomarkers at the same SPCE, and then an analogous determination of structural more similar pair, HVA and VMA, was performed at a boron doped diamond electrode (BDDE). Obtained LODs of optimized methods were as follows: at SPCE 0.07 µmol·L-1 for HVA, 0.05 µmol·L-1 for VMA, and 0.03 µmol·L-1 for 5-HIAA,...

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.

Development of electroanalytical methods for detection of cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol
Benešová, Lenka ; Schwarzová, Karolina (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
The aim of this Thesis is development of electroanalytical methods for determination of cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol on boron doped diamond electrodes based on electrochemical oxidation of products of acid-induced dehydration reaction. Two approches have been applied, relying on their detection in 0,1 mol.l-1 perchloric acid in acetonitril containing variable water content 0,43 % - 40 %. Cyclic voltammetry revealed substantial difference in oxidation peak pontecials for 7-dehydrocholesterol (+850 mV) and cholesterol (+1500 mV) in 0,1 mol.l-1 perchloric acid in acetonitrile containing 5 % of water. The limit of detection using differential pulse voltammetry were 6,19 µmol.l-1 a 19,2 µmol.l-1 for a mixture of 7-dehydrocholesterol and cholesterol, respectively. For flow injection analysis with amperometric detection (FIA-AD) the water content in run buffer, detection potencial and the distance between the capillary outlet and electrode surface in wall-jet arrangement of amerometric flow-through detection cell were optimized. Achieved detection limits are in range of 0,61 - 3,43 µmol.l-1 depending on the detection potencial and water concent in the run buffer. The developed FIA-AD method was used for determination of a model mixture solution of 7- dehydrocholesterol and cholesterol. Key words...
