Support of physical interaction between hyaluronan and selected hydrophobic solutes
Michalicová, Petra ; Kislinger, Jiří (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
The method of fluorescence spectroscopy was applied for the studying of the way of the hyaluronan-fluorescence probe system`s preparation on mutual interaction in water. Several experiments with fluorescence probes pyrene, prodan, perylene and diphenylhexatriene (DPH) had been submitted. The first part of the experiments deals with the verification of the results of T. Brown`s work and it was focused on the study of simple interaction between hyaluronan and hydrophobic compounds. In the second part of the work hyaluronan was dried at higher temperature followed by adding of the fluorescence probe. The aim of this method was the distraction of hyaluronan`s moisture packaging and the opening up the hydrophobic parts of the chain for the fluorophore. Although wide concentration ranges of fluorescence probes had been tested in the first experiments, the interactions hadn`t been observed. The similar results were obtained in the second part of the experiments.

Phospholipids as the basis of biodegradable delivery systems
Burdíková, Jana ; Čeppan, Michal (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This thesis is focused on investigation of phospholipid-hyaluronan system. First, appropriate method for preparation of bulk solution of phospholipid/lipid and suitable fluorescence probe were chosen. Sonification was selected as a method for preparation of bulk solution and pyrene was chosen as a fluorescence probe. From the group of phospholipids lecithin was selected. Next to phospholipid, lipid with no phosphate group (DPTAP) was utilized for comparison, alternatively a mixture of lipid (DPTAP) and phospholipid (DPPC). Instead of hyaluronan another polyelectrolytes (sodium polystyrene sulfonate, sodium alginate) were used too. Measurements were performed in water environment and in phosphate buffer saline (PBS). All investigation was accomplished by fluorescence spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering.

Fluorescence study of hydrophilic domains of associating colloids
Londinová, Monika ; Knotková,, Kateřina (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
The properties of the hyaluronan were investigated by using different fluorescence probes, because hyaluronan is a hopeful carrier of an active matter in medicine and cosmetics. Selected fluorescence probes were: cationic acridine orange, Nile Blue A, methylene blue, amphiphilic 4-Di-2-ASP and anionic fluorescein. Except from fluorescence and absorption spectra of the probes were observed electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions as well. The probes in solvents with different polarity (MeOH, EtOH, DMSO) showed the bathochromic shift in the emission maximum and quenching of the fluorescence with the increasing polarity of the solvents. The influence of the ionic strength on fluorescence properties of the probe acridine orange and 4-Di-2-ASP was investigated in aqueous solutions of chlorides. The formation of acridine orange dimer is inhibited with increasing ionic strength. CaCl2 increased the ionic strength the most, then prevented repulsion of carboxylate groups, so it means the expansion of hyaluronan cluster into the solution. However, the emission of the probe 4-Di-2-ASP was quenched with the addition of CaCl2 the most. The first additions of COO– groups cause the formation of dimers of AO shown as decreasing in extinction coefficient and fluorescence intensity. Next addition of the hyaluronan caused a depolymerization of formed dimers and the increase of the emission intensity. The repolymerization caused the decrease and then again the increase. In case of 4-Di-2-ASP was the pattern of the fluorescence (the intensity and the position of the emission) firstly the same, but at the concentration of 1 g dm-3 the emission intensity increased. The probes MB and F were used for spectroscopic studies of the interaction between methylene blue-fluorescein complex and anionic and cationic surfactants. The absorbance of separate MB and F changed only with the addition of surfactants with the opposite electric charge. Absorbance of the mixture MB-F changed with the addition of the CTAC surfactant, while the addition of SDS into the mixture caused only the change of MB absorption spectra.

Study of interaction between hyaluronan and phospholipid in a presence of biocompatible non-ionic surfactant
Burdíková, Jana ; Klučáková, Martina (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This work is based on investigation of aggregation behavior of sugar surfactants and sn-glycero-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholin (DPPC) in aqueous environment and on study of the interactions in nonionic surfactant-DPPC and DPPC-nonionic surfactant-hyaluronan systems. Sugar surfactants were used from non-ionic surfactants. The behavior of each systems was studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Values of critical micellar concentrations (CMC) of sugar surfactants, begining of aggregation of DPPC, DPPC aggregation effect of sugar surfactants and the effect of hyaluronan on the system non-ionic surfactant-DPPC has been investigated. Also CMC of the CPC (cetylpyrimidium chloride), which was used for fluorescence quenching in the determination of aggregate numbers of sugar surfactants, has been determined. Fluorescent probes pyrene, perylene, nile red, acridine orange and hydrophobic dye sudan red were used for measurements.
