New amphiphilic ion pairs for the preparation of vesicular systems
Strnadová, Martina ; Kalina, Michal (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
The bachelor thesis is focused on the preparation of the new vesicular systems. The aim of this work is to create the most stable system and find out the most optimal working method for its production. The compared parameters were the energy used for dispersion, the molar percentage of cholesterol added, and the type of double-stranded positively charged surfactant. The whole system consisted of negatively charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate and positively charged surfactant septonex. Each system was compared over time to determine stability based on the size of the particle, zeta potential, and turbidity of the solution. By the method of dynamic light scattering, particle size and polydispersity coefficient were measured. On the other hand, the zeta potential was determined by electrophoretic light scattering. The result of the thesis presents the most suitable parameters of ultrasonic dispersion, the molar proportion of cholesterol, and the use of cationic surfactant. Based on these parameters, it is possible to create a physically stable system for a long period of time, thanks to which such a system can be used in the future for other applications.

Influence of dispersion parameters on formation of vesicular systems
Vajcíková, Katarína ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
The work describes a method for the preparation of catanionic vesicular systems using the method of ultrasonic dispersion in order to find the most suitable parameters for the preparation of a system with long–term physical stability. The parameters compared were the amplitude of the ultrasonic wave, the energy used for dispersion, and the volume of deionized water used to prepare a system consisting of the negatively charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate and the positively charged surfactant hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide. To increase stability and provide a positive charge, the surfactant dimethyldioctadecylammonium chloride was used and cholesterol was also added to increase stability. The individual systems were compared over time because of their size, zeta potential and turbidity of the solution. Particle size and polydispersity coefficient were measurement by the dynamic light scattering method. The zeta potential was determined by electrophoretic light scattering, and the turbidity was monitored by UV-VIS spectrophotometry based on the measurement of turbidity. The results present the most suitable parameters of ultrasonic dispersion using Bandelin SONOPULS UW 3200. The use of these parameters shows the emergence of systems with long–term physical stability, which means that they can be used for other applications.

Study of membrane properties of catanionic vesicles from new SEPT-DS amphiphilic ion pairs
Vajcíková, Katarína ; Krouská, Jitka (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This work describes the possibility of determining the membrane properties of vesicular systems formed by ion pair amphiphile (IPAs), which were prepared by mixing positively and negatively charged surfactants, namely the positively charged surfactant carbethopendecinium bromide (Septonex) and negatively charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate with the addition of dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride and cholesterol for stability enhancement. Such systems are potential drug carriers and hence their careful characterization is very important for further research. In this work, the possibilities of studying the membrane properties of such systems using spectrometric methods, namely fluorescence anisotropy and generalized polarization, by which the fluidity and solvation of the bilayer membrane were detected as a function of the amount of added cholesterol and the change in temperature, are described. The size and stability of the prepared vesicular systems formed from the new amphiphilic pairs were investigated by dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering, and finally, the phase transition temperature was detected using differential scanning calorimetry method.
