Study of emulsion stability by means of physical-chemical and optical methods
Kuchyňová, Jitka ; Veselá, Mária (referee) ; Zmeškal, Oldřich (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the stability determination of model O/W (30/70) emulsions at 25°C. In fact, the time and emulsifier concentration (Tego Care PS) dependences of physical properties (aging) were monitored. In the second part of the work, the influence of conservant on emulsion stabilities were studied. In order to study physical properties of emusions rheometry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and optical microscopy were employed. The rheological measurement provided information on viscosity and viscoelastic modulus. DSC experiments used the repeated freezing/thawing cycles which allowed monitoring of changes in crystallization temperature of water present in emulsions and melting enthalpy of ice formed during the cooling. The optical microscopy was used to examine the change in oil droplet size in the course of emulsion destabilization and phase separation. In this case the image analysis was carried out using program HarFA. The results showed that due to the emulsion creaming, the oil droplets diffuse and aggregate which causes phase separation. Those processes were quickest for the emulsion with lowest emulsifier concentration 0.1 % (destabilization during 51 days) The emulsions with emulsifier concentration about 1.5 and 1.3 % were stable at least for 4 months. The presence of the coemulsifiers increased the elastic modulus and descreased the phase difference due to the network formation. It was shown that for the stability determination is necessary to use conservant due to risk of microbial contamination. DSC experiments allowed to distingush samples prepared under different conditions. Lower rotational speed during emulsion preparation caused the appearance of two melting and crystalization peaks while for higher speed only one peak was observed.

Hyaluronan ion complexes
Cimalová, Jana ; Sedlařík, Vladimír (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on the study of physical and chemical properties of hyaluronan and cationic surfactant. As the cationic surfactant Septonex was used. The influence of the environment on the system, the effect of molecular weight of hyaluronan, and its concentration was studied. Then, the study of the influence and the effects of concentration of Septonex on the interaction of hyaluronan-surfactant followed. Different methods of measurement were chosen to characterize these ionokomplexes. The critical micelle concentration of the surfactant itself was measured, and then also with the addition of hyaluronan by spectrofluorimetry with fluorescent probe pyren. It was found, that hyaluronan forms gel with Septonex. On this basis, gels were prepared for three different molecular weights of hyaluronan – 300 kDa, 806 kDa and 1697 kDa. Gels were prepared in a ratio of hyaluronan – surfactant 1:1. In gels prepared in this way, the influence of environmental water and 0.15 M NaCl was studied and it was found that at 0.15 M NaCl clear gels are formed. Selected samples of the gels were then measured with oscillatory testing and the rheological behavior of gels of Septonex was studied. As the last method the turbidimetric measurement was chosen, which characterized the turbidity point in the gradual addition of Septonex to sodium hyaluronate solution. Again, the effect of the molecular weight of hyaluronan and its concentration in two environments - water and 0.15 M NaCl was evaluated. It was found that 0,15 M NaCl suppresses formation of turbidity and formation of precipitates.

System of collagen-hyaluronan in colloidal silver
Sklenářová, Renáta ; Obruča, Stanislav (referee) ; Hurčíková, Andrea (advisor)
The bachelor thesis is focused on the characteristics of solutions of hyaluronan and collagen in colloidal silver. These solutions polysaccharide and protein were prepared at several concentration rows that were analyzed by densitometer from Anton Paar and rheometer from TA Instruments. There were measured density, ultrasonic velocity and viscosity. The aim was to find the optimal ratio of collagen and hyaluronan in colloidal silver, which would suit the transdermal absorption and prepare skin healing spray.

Hyaluronan hydrogels
Vaculíková, Hana ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Hurčíková, Andrea (advisor)
In this thesis there was preparation optimized for agarose-gelatin hydrogels with addition of various concentrations of low-molecular and high-molecular hyaluronan and than there were examined viscoelastic properties of them by rheological oscilation tests and high-resolution ultrasonic spektrometry. By rheology were measured values of elastic and viscous modulus for selected amplitude of strain, oscilation frequencies and temperatures. In the second method there were recorded values of ultrasonic velocities of samples at temperature scanning from 85 to 25 °C and from 25 to 85 °C in HR-US 102, which were compared with ultrasonic velocities measured at the temperature 27,0±0,5 °C by gel-modul HR-EX-SSC.

Development and assessment of selected properties of emulsion cosmetics
Kuchyňová, Jitka ; Souralová Popelková, Miriam (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis focuses on assessment of selected properties of emulsion cosmetic product called Soothing face mask, which is produced by SynCare company. Thesis is targeted on rheological properties of the product. Basic rheological properties were measured by Brookfield viscosimeter in experimental part of the thesis. Short part of the text is dedicated to thermic analysis field, which may provide some useful pieces of information for storage of products in cryogenic temperature and development of emulsion products with good cryogenic-temperature resistance. Chemical properties of Soothing face mask product are expressed by description of particular characteristics of cosmetic ingredients in the product.

Gabrielová, Michaela ; Ptáček, Petr (referee) ; Pekař, Miloslav (advisor)
The purpose of this study is to zoom in implication of flow properties of hyaluronan colloids with respect to physiological role. In the first part I will introduce physical formulation and definition of flow properties and reology, process to its measurement and utilization. In the second part you can read about hyaluronic acid and colloids of its salts. In this part I will focus on first studies of hyaluronic acid throught its occurence to its chemical properties. Within this work I will try to demonstrate interconnection of both subjects.
