Voltammetric Determination of Genotoxic 6-Nitrochrysene at a Mercury Meniscus Modified Silver Solid Amalgam Electrode
Šmídková, Monika ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Fischer, Jan (referee)
This Bachelor Thesis is devoted to the study of electrochemical behavior of 6-nitrochrysene (6-NCH) and to the finding of the optimum conditions for its determination using direct current voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at a mercury meniscus modified silver solid amalgam electrode (m-AgSAE). For measuring the concentration dependences of 6-NCH, the optimum medium methanol - BR buffer pH 9.0 (1:1) and the proper regeneration potentials Ereg,1 = 0 mV, Ereg,2 = -600 mV have been chosen for DCV at m-AgSAE and the medium methanol - BR buffer pH 10.0 (1:1) and the proper regeneration potentials Ereg,1 = 0 mV, Ereg,2 = -750 mV have been chosen for DPV at m-AgSAE. The concentration dependence was found to be linear only for the lowest concentration range of 10-7 mol·l-1 . In the concentration range of 10-6 mol·l-1 , the concentration dependences observed were polynomial. This result indicates a possible adsorption of 6-NCH on the surface of working electrode. Reached limits of quantification (LQ) were 1·10-7 mol·l-1 for DCV at m-AgSAE and 5·10-8 mol·l-1 for DPV at m-AgSAE. For comparison, the concentration dependence of 6-NCH was measured in methanol using UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Reached LQ ~ 1·10-7 mol·l-1 is comparable with LQs reached using DCV and DPV techniques.

Voltammetric determination of drugs doxycycline and dimenhydrinate using carbon film electrode
Humpolíková, Jiřina ; Fischer, Jan (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
This bachelor's thesis concerns the determination of doxycycline (DX) and dimenhydrinate (DMH) by the methods DC voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) on a carbon film electrode (CFE). The optimum conditions for voltammetric determination of DX and DMH were found and under these conditions, concentration dependences were measured and the limits of quantification (LOQ) were calculated for each method. The media of BR-buffer pH 12.0 was chosen as optimum for DCV and DPV determination of DX at CFE. For both DCV and DPV, the linear concentration dependences were obtained in concentration ranges of DX from 20 µmol·l-1 to 100 µmol·l-1 with LOQ 15,4 µmol·l-1 for DCV and 15,2 µmol·l-1 for DPV. DX was determined in drug using DCV under optimized conditions and for comparison of used voltammetric method DX in drug was determined also using UV-VIS spectrophotometry with consistent results. The optimum medium of BR buffer pH 3.0 was chosen for determination of DMH by DCV and pH 2.0 for DPV. The calibration range 2,0 - 10,0 µmol·l-1 of DMH was received using DCV and 0,2 - 1,0 µmol·l-1 of DMH was recevied using DPV at CFE with reached LOQ 0,08 µmol·l-1 for DCV and 0,02 µmol·l-1 for DPV. DMH was determined in comertional drugs using DCV on founded conditions. The stability of stock solution...

Voltammetric Determination of 4-Nitrophenol at a Large-Surface Carbon Film Electrode
Šmejkalová, Hana ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
The aim of presented Bachelor Thesis was to study an electrochemical behavior of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) resulting in the founding of optimum conditions for its determination at newly prepared large-surface carbon film electrode (ls-CFE) using DC voltametry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Voltammetic behavior of 4-NP was investigated in dependence on the pH of the medium (realized using Britton-Robinson buffer). As optimum pH values for voltammetric determination of 4-NP at ls-CFE in cathodic potentials region, the pH values 6.0 (for DCV) and 7.0 (for DPV) were chosen. The determinations of 4-NP at ls-CFE (at a concentration of the analyte of 1·10-4 mol/l) showed a good repeatability for both voltammetric techniques used (2.2 % for DCV and 0.4 % for DPV). Therefore, the possibility of an electrochemical regeneration of the electrode surface has not been further investigated. Under optimum conditions, the calibration dependences of 4-NP were measured in the concentration range from 2·10-6 to 1·10-4 mol/l, with limits of quantification (LQ) of 2.3·10-6 mol/l (for DCV at ls-CFE) and 1.8·10-6 mol/l (for DPV at ls-CFE). The applicability of the newly developed methods of the determination of 4-NP was verified on the model samples of drinking water, with LQ of 1.0·10-6 mol/l (for DCV at...

Voltammetric Determination of Dinitronaphthalenes Using Single Crystal Silver Amalgam Electrode
Tvrdíková, Jana ; Barek, Jiří (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
Voltammetric methods for determination of 1,3-dinitronaphthalene (1,3-DNN), 1,5-dinitronaphthalene (1,5-DNN) and 1,8-dinitronaphthalene (1,8-DNN) using DC voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at novel single crystal silver amalgam electrode (CAgAE) were developed in this work. Developed methods may be used for determination of 1,3-DNN within a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 1 - 100 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 1 μmol.L-1 by DPV; 1,5-DNN wihin a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 1 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 1 μmol.L-1 by DPV and 1,8-DNN within a concentration range 2 - 10 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 2 μmol.L-1 using DCV and 0,3 - 1 μmol.L-1 with LoQ 0,3 μmol.L-1 by DPV. An attepmt to decrease LoQ by adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetry was not successful. Process of electrochemical reduction of selected dinitronaphthalenes on the working electrode was also studied by cyclic voltammetry. This work verified the use of CAgAE as alternative electrode material to mercury electrodes for determination of electrochemically reducible organic compounds in aqueous-methanolic media. Small dimensions of the CAgAE are the main advantages which predetermine its use in voltammetric microvolume batch analysis and amperometric detection in...

Voltammetric Determination of Chloramphenicol and Ofloxacin at Boron Doped Diamond Film Electrodes
Ječmínková, Jana ; Fischer, Jan (advisor) ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (referee)
Voltammetric methods for the determination amphenicol antibiotic chloramphenicol (CAP) and quinolone antibiotic Ofloxacin (OFL) were developed. TTechniques differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and DC voltammetry (DCV) for determination of both substances at boron doped diamond film electrode (BDDFE) were used. The effect of pH of Britton-Robinson buffer was tested and the stability of the signal with repeated measurements was monitored. Optimal pH 6 was used for determining of CAP by both, DPV and DCV techniques. Media of pH 4 for determining of OFL by DPV and DCV was optimal. Under these conditions linear dependences in the calibration concentration region 1.10 -6 - 1.10-4 mol.l -1 were obtained. The limit of determination for the method for CAP by DPV at 3.10 mol.l , by -6 -1 DCV at 3.10 mol.l and for -6 -1 OFL by DPV at 1.10 mol.l -6 -1 and by DCV at 4.10 mol.l -7 -1 was found. The developed methods were used for the determination of CAP in the drug samples Spersadex comp. and OFL determination in drug samples Zanocin 200. Method for solid phase extraction of OFL from samples of urine with voltammetric detection was developed with limit of determination at 7.10 mol.l . -6 -1
