Voltammetric Determination of 5-Nitroimidazole - The Structural Unit of Nitroimidazole Drugs
Šmídková, Monika ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (advisor) ; Fischer, Jan (referee)
Presented Diploma Thesis deals with the study of electrochemical behavior of 5-nitroimidazole (5-NI), with the search for optimal conditions for its determination using techniques of DC voltammetry (DCV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) at a mercury meniscus modified silver solid amalgam electrode (m-AgSAE) and at a boron-doped diamond film electrode (BDDFE), and with the comparison of reached limits of quantification (LQs). The optimal conditions found for measuring calibration dependences of 5-NI at the m-AgSAE in deionized water were as follows: Britton-Robinson buffer of pH 7.0 and 10.0 for DCV and DPV, respectively. At both thechniques, it is advisable to use an electrochemical regeneration of the electrode surface by the application of a couple of regeneration potentials Ereg,1 = 0 mV and Ereg,2 = −800 mV. The calibration dependences were measured in the concentration range from 1·10−6 to 1·10−4 mol·l−1 , with the LQs of 1.0·10−6 mol·l−1 for DCV at the m-AgSAE and 1.5·10−6 mol·l−1 for DPV at the m-AgSAE. The concentration dependences of 5-NI at the BDDFE were measured using the DCV technique in the BR buffer of pH 3.0. For the DPV technique, the optimal medium seemed to be the BR buffer of pH 2.0, however, because of the presence of an interfering peak in the supporting electrolyte,...

The utitilization of boron-doped diamond thin film electrode for the voltammetric and amperometric determination of amino derivatives of biphenyl
Maixnerová, Lucie ; Schwarzová, Karolina (advisor) ; Zima, Jiří (referee)
The aim to this work was to develop methods for the determination of 2 aminobiphenyl (2-AB), 3 aminobiphenyl (3-AB), and 4-aminobiphenyl (4-AB) in model mixtures. Concretely, the direct determination of the mixture of studied analytes has been tested using spectrophotometry and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Furthermore, separation and detection of 2-AB, 3-AB, and 4-AB have been performed using high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC-ED) with boron-doped diamond film thin electrode (BDDFE) in ,,wall-jet" configuration and using high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UVD). It was found out that the spectrophotometric determination of 2-AB, 3-AB, and 4-AB is impossible in their mixture because of nearby values of local absorption maxima wavelengths of all three analytes studied. Upon the determination of 2-AB, 3-AB, and 4-AB in their mixture using DPV in BR buffer pH 2.0, the difference in peak potentials of 2-AB and 3-AB is too low for their determination in mixture. Upon the determination of mixture containing 2-AB and 4-AB in BR buffer pH 12.0, the limits of determination (LDs) were obtained in the concentration order of 10-6 mol.l-1 for 2-AB and 10-7 mol.l-1 for 4-AB. LDs for the mixture containing 3-AB and 4-AB were obtained in the...

Determination of selected terpenoids by HPLC with electrochemical detection
Mužíková, Jana ; Dejmková, Hana (advisor) ; Schwarzová, Karolina (referee)
This thesis deals with the determination of carvacrol, thymol, and eugenol by HPLC with electrochemical detection. Carbon paste electrode and boron doped diamond film electrode were used as the working electrodes. For the comparison, UV spectrophotometric detection at 275 nm was used besides the electrochemical detection. The separation was performed on LiChroCART 125-4, RP-18e (5 µm) column. Optimum separation conditions were found: mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and acetate buffer in ratio 50:50, the optimum buffer pH was pH 5. The optimum potential of working electrode during electrochemical detection was +0,8 V and +1,2 V for carbon paste electrode and boron doped diamond film electrode, respectively. For both electrodes, repeatability of the measurement was examined; the surface of both electrodes had to be renewed between the measurements. Under the obtained optimum conditions, calibration dependences were measured. The studied substances were determined in real samples, in Thymus vulgaris L. and Achillea millefolium L. and in thyme-containing tea and syrup.

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 benzophenone-3 on boron-doped diamond film electrode
Procházková, Kateřina ; Dejmková, Hana (advisor) ; Vyskočil, Vlastimil (referee)
Voltammetric behaviour of benzophenone-3 on a diamond film electrode doped by boron was studied by difference pulse voltammetry in an anodic area in the Britton-Robinson buffer medium. The influence of supporting electrolyte pH on the determination was monitored as well as the influence of methanol and acetonitrile content in the measured sample. pH 12 was selected as the optimum value for the determination. Methanol did not have any influence on the determination up to the content of 20 % (v/v), acetonitrile up to content of 70 % (v/v). A linear calibration dependence was measured in the medium of Britton-Robinson buffer pH 12 within the benzophenone-3 concentration range from 1·10-6 mol·L-1 to 1·10-4 mol·L-1 . Detection limit 1.5·10-6 mol·L-1 and determination limit 5.0·10-6 mol·L-1 have been reached. Key words Benzophenone-3 Boron-doped diamond film electrode Differential pulse voltammetry
