Voltammetric Determination of Chloramphenicol and Chlorambucil on Amalgam Electrodes
Havlíková, Štěpánka ; Fischer, Jan (advisor) ; Zima, Jiří (referee)
This diploma thesis is focused on the determination of chloramphenicol by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), DC voltammetry (DCV), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) on a meniscus modified silver solid amalgame electrode (m- AgSAE). For the determination of chloramphenicol the optimum conditions were found and under these conditions concentration dependences were measured and then limits of quantification were determined. The influence of pH of BR buffer was tested. For determination of chloramphenicol by DCV pH 7 was chosen as an optimum background and pH 8 was chosen as an optimmum for DPV determination. Under these conditions linear dependences were obtained in the concentration range of 1·10-6 - 1·10-4 mol·l-1 . The limit of detection of chloramphenicol by DCV was 2.3·10-6 mol·l-1 . The limit of detection of chloramphenicol by DPV was 2.1·10-6 mol·l-1 in distilled water, 2.9·10-6 mol·l-1 in river water and 4.2·10-6 mol·l-1 in drinking water. Electrochemical behavior of chloramphenicol was studied by cyclic voltammetry in BR buffer with pH 2, 6, 8, 12 and then mechanism of reduction of chloramphenicol was propose based on available literature. Chloramphenicol was determined in drug Spersadex by DPV in BR buffer with pH 8. The optimal conditions for determining...

Electrochemical Determination of Fomesafen
Maška, Jan ; Barek, Jiří (advisor) ; Fischer, Jan (referee)
The submitted work deals with the application of voltammetric determination of Fomesafen using non-traditional mercury meniscus modified silver solid amalgam electrode on model samples of Fomesafen in real aqueous matrices of drinking and river water. This method of measurement has been developed and optimized in my bachelor thesis, which the diploma thesis is related to. Fomesafen belongs to a group of herbicides used on a mass scale in the late 20th century in the USA and in many countries around the world still used even today. Among its side effects according to the EPA include, among others, potential carcinogenicity to humans and confirmed carcinogenicity to some mammals (such as rats) which led to a legislative regulation on its use in many countries around the world including the USA, the European Union and many others. Silver solid amalgam electrode has been developed with the intention to limit the use of mercury in accordance with new legislation of the European Union and the concept of green analytical chemistry. Despite the low levels of mercury mainly bound in the form of virtually harmless silver amalgam electrode retains very similar electrochemical properties with proven mercury electrodes. As part of the thesis, direct determination of a number of partial extraction of Fomesafen...

Voltammetric Determination of Herbicide Aclonifen Using Mercury Electrodes
Murcková, Klára ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Dejmková, Hana (referee)
Presented Diploma Thesis is focused on electroanalytical determination of the herbicide Aclonifen, which belongs to a group of herbicides derived from diphenylether. These herbicides are used due to their effects - inhibition of protoporfyrinogen oxidase synthesis and also inhibition of biosynthesis of carotenoids. Due to its widespread use in agricultural, toxical effects on humans and because of its negative impacts particularly on aquatic ecosystems there is a need for methods capable of determining the presence of Aclonifen in the environment to monitor its ecological impacts. Optimal conditions for the determination of Aclonifen have been investigated in BR buffer - methanolic solution and in BR buffer. Electrochemical behavior of the substance has been studied using direct current voltammetry (DCV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPP) and adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) on the hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) and by using TAST polarography and differential pulse polarography (DPP) on the dropping mercury electrode (DME). UV/VIS spectrophotometric detection was used for comparison to electrochemical detection. Used wavelengths were 308 nm and 388 nm. For electrochemical determination of Aclonifen the above mentioned techniques were used and following results were obtained: DCV...

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
