Poláková, Veronika ; Vojtová, Lucy (referee) ; Brtníková, Jana (advisor)
Cieľom tejto bakalárskej práce je príprava a polymérová enkapsulácia antibakteriálnych biogénnych nanočastíc, tak aby sa zvýšila stabilita, znížila cytotoxicita a bola zachovaná ich antibakteriálna aktivita. Teoretická časť obsahuje informácie o regeneratívnej medicíne, bežne používaných nanoštruktúrach v regeneratívnej medicíne, ich vlastnostiach a metódach enkapsulácie. Experimentálna časť popisuje procesy prípravy selénových nanočastíc za použitia rôznych metód so špecifickými stabilizátormi a pokračuje enkapsuláciou do prírodného polyméru. Použité metódy enkapsulácie sú založené na samostatnej polymerizácii a pokrývaní vybraným, v prírode sa vyskytujúcim polymérom s adhezívnymi vlastnosťami. Boli skúmané chemické a fyzikálne vlastnosti čistých a enkapsulovaných selénových nanočastíc, ako je ich koncentrácia a morfológia (veľkosť a tvar), boli skúmané pomocou infračervenej spektrofotometrie s Fourierovou transformáciou a skenovacej transmisnej elektrónovej mikroskopie. Bolo zistené, že rôzne metódy poskytnú nanočastice s rôznou veľkosťou, tvarom a stabilitou. Hlavným výsledkom je vytvorenie a popísanie optimalizovanej metódy syntézy selénových častíc, ich stabilizácia a enkapsulácia. Nanočastice syntetizované touto metódou majú sférický tvar a ich veľkosť sa pohybuje v rozmedzí od 10.5 do 101 nm. Veľkosť väčšiny takto syntetizovaných nanočastíc leží v intervale od 10.5 do 40 nm. Enkapsulované nanočastice sú väčšie a pohybujú sa v hodnotách od 74.5 do 571.5 nm.

Gel Polymer Electrolytes for Electrochemical Power Sources
Jahn, Michal ; Bartušek, Karel (referee) ; Paidar,, Martin (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
Dissertation thesis is focused on study of gel polymer electrolytes for electrochemical power sources, but also for other application. The electrical, electrochemical, mechanical and optical properties of gel electrolyte samples were measured in this work. The main goal was to prepare samples with high specific conductivity and with largest possible potential windows. Thermal stability of some samples was also monitored using thermogravimetric analyzes. The optimization of the chemical composition, quantities and ratios of individual chemicals has been made. Comparison of thermal polymerization and UV polymerization was performed. In the first part of the work, aprotic solvents and their mixtures in combination with lithium and sodium salts and one ammonium salt were investigated. Another subject of research was various crosslinking agents with methacrylate-based monomers. The second part of the work investigated the effect of ionic liquids, phosphor base flame retardants and nanoparticles as additives to gel electrolytes. In the last part of the work, the influence of the magnetic and electric field on the polymerization of gel electrolytes containing nanoparticles and selected copolymers was studied. Finally, a Li-ion cell with a graphite anode, LiFePO4 cathode and selected gel electrolyte was assembled.
synthesis of conjugated polyacetylene based polymers
Duchoslavová, Zuzana ; Zedník, Jiří (advisor) ; Doubský, Jan (referee)
Mostly new acetylene based monomers were prepared. All monomers were prepared by the means of standard spectroscopic methods. All monomers were successfully polymerized using standard metathesis TaCl5 based catalyst. Prepared polymers were characterized by the means of GPC/GPC-MALLS chromatography and standard spectral methods. Fluorescence properties of all prepared compounds were also studied: quantum fluorescence yields were determined and excitation and emission fluorescence spectra were recorded. Polymerization on modern metathesis Grubbs-Hoveyda catalytic systems of all prepared monomers was also tested. These reactions were only partially successful and only low molecular weight oligomers in mediocre yields were obtained.
Preparation and polymerization ethynyl pyridine based monomers
Faukner, Tomáš ; Zedník, Jiří (advisor) ; Hoškovec, Michal (referee)
A group of monomers based on disubstitued ethynylpyridine (3-PyCCPh-4-t-Bu, 2-PyCCR, R = 4-t-BuPh, 2-Py, n-Bu) and 4-tert-butyphenylethynyl (4-t-BuPhCCPh-p-OR, R = SiPh2-t-Bu, Si-i-Pr3) were prepared by Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction (PdCl2[(PPh3]2/CuI). All of these monomers were charakterized by IR, UV/vis and NMR spectroscopy. Ethynylpyridine based monomers were polymerised by quarternization (ethylbromid was used as a quarternization agent) and by Grubbs-Hoveyda 2nd generation catalyst. As a product of the quarternization were obtained oligomers compounded by 2 - 13 monomers units (Mw: 1600 - 6000, Y 70%). Only low molecular weight oligomers were also obtained by Grubbs-Hoveyda 2nd generation polymerization (Mw: 400 - 1500, Y 34 %). Monomers based on 4-tert-butyphenylethynyl were polymerized by TaCl5/Bu4Sn/Toluen catalytic system. In that case were obatined polymers (Mw: 64 000 - 200 000, IP = 2,3 -3,9, Y 75 %). Products of polymeryzations were charakterized by GPC, IR, UV/vis and NMR spectroscopy.
Study of molecular weight and configurational stability of substituted polyacetylenes
Trhlíková, Olga ; Sedláček, Jan (advisor) ; Netopilík, Miloš (referee) ; Žigon, Majda (referee)
3 ABSTRACT Complexes [Rh(cycloolefin)(acac)] (cycloolefin = norborna-2,5-diene, cycloocta- 1,5-diene and cyclooctatetraene) were investigated as catalysts of polymerization of monosubstituted acetylenes into stereoregular cis-transoid polyacetylenes. All complexes were highly active in arylacetylenes polymerizations in both coordinating and non-coordinating solvents. Selection of solvent and cycloolefin ligand of the catalyst allowed the control over polymer MW. The onset of initiation in the [Rh(cycloolefin)(acac)]/monomer systems proceeded as the proton transfer from the monomer molecule to the acac ligand under the release of acetylacetone and coordination of -C≡CR ligand to Rh(cycloolefin) moiety. Cis-transoid poly(phenylacetylene) and poly[(2,4-difluorophenyl)acetylene]s with required initial MW were prepared with these catalysts and submitted to the long-term ageing in which the polymers were exposed to the atmosphere and diffuse daylight either dissolved in tetrahydrofuran or in the solid state. Tightly connected processes of cis-to-trans isomerization of the polymer main-chains double bonds and oxidative degradation were found to proceed during polymers ageing in the solution. Besides, the formation of corresponding cyclotrimers accompanied the polymers ageing. However, the cyclotrimers amount was...
Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy and Visualization of Biological Objects
Nedvědová, Marie ; Kužel,, Petr (referee) ; Vrba, Jan (referee) ; Provazník, Ivo (advisor)
This thesis deals with the methods of Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy to observe the kinetics of haemostatic materials used for supporting the native mechanism of haemostasis. The theoretical part follows the physical principles of THz time-domain spectroscopy (THz TDS), mentions the advantages and limitations of this method and its application possibilities for the characterization of biomedical materials. Further, there are specified properties of actual haemostats, described principles of their function and usage in practice, including their interaction with the living tissue. There were performed experiments monitoring the kinetics of physiologic reaction of the tissue adhesive based on the cyanoacrylates and absorbable haemostats. The mechanisms of monitored reactions were explained based on the physical-chemical principles that are used also for the kinetic models’ derivation. Modelling of the measured data results in the estimation of the parameters characterizing the observed samples. The most interesting parameter is the time constant of the reaction because of the possibility to compare reaction rates of different types of haemostats. The detailed analysis of this parameter is performed using the means of statistical methods. Tissue adhesive samples were measured by other spectroscopic and microscopic methods to compare the findings with the experimental results of the THz TDS. Data were processed using algorithms designed especially for this experiment and analysed using mathematical methods.

Development of the poly(methylene blue) modified graphite electrodes for the electrochemical detection of hydrogen sulphide
Zlámalová, Magda ; Janda, Pavel ; Nesměrák, K.
A comparative study have been undertaken of the electropolymerization and electrochemical properties of deposited electroactive polymer on two different graphite electrode substrates: basal plane highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and pencil-graphite electrode (PGE). Poly(methylene blue) modified electrodes (HOPG/pMB and PGE/pMB) have been prepared by potential cycling in aqueous electrolyte solution containing methylene blue monomer. It has been found that electrochemical properties and electrocatalytic activity of deposited film are greatly influenced by the type of electrode substrate. Developed electrodes have been further investigated as potential sensors for hydrogen sulphide.
