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.

Biosensors based on modified carbon nanotubes
Ferdusová, Helena ; Majzlík, Petr (referee) ; Hubálek, Jaromír (advisor)
The aim of this work is to describe biosensors for detection of substances in liquids using modified carbon nanotubes. This work reports on knowledge about nanotubes and electrochemical analysis methods which were used. The matter of direct electrochemical detection of insulin using CNTs modified thick layer planar carbon nanotubes is discussed. The elementary working electrodes were created by using of commercial carbon paste and were modified by thin film CNTs, CNTs/ruthenium oxide and CNTs/chitosan then. The best results of the insulin detection were achieved with the working electrodes modified by low concentration non-purified CNTs which had low elementary response in electrolyte and good response to increasing concentration of insulin in the concentration range from 0, 25 to 10 mol/L. The other modifications caused increasing of the electrode elementary response, but they did not significantly affect the detection.
