Study of DNA-doxorubicine interaction by electrochemical methods on nanostructured electrodes
Přibyl, Jakub ; Fohlerová, Zdenka (referee) ; Kynclová, Hana (advisor)
Cancer diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, for this reason, great attention anticancer drugs. Doxorubicin falls into the category of the most widely used cancer drugs. The method of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were investigated properties of golds electrodes without deposit nanoparticles and electrodes with deposit gold nanoparticles. Using voltammetric measurements we detected doxorubicin and investigated the interaction of doxorubicin with oligonucleotides on gold electrodes without nanoparticles and electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles.

Thick-film sensors for heavy metals detection
Gajdoš, Libor ; Majzlíková, Petra (referee) ; Prášek, Jan (advisor)
This project describes the possibilities of heavy metals detections in solutions using differential pulse voltammetry with tree-electrode electrochemical thick-film sensors. In the theoretical part, the thick-film technology is described as well as thick-film pastes’ types and compositions, followed by introduction to electrochemistry and electro-analytical methods of measurement. This project also describes the three measured heavy metals – cadmium, lead and copper. In the practical part, heavy metals’ ions detection in solutions using carbon working electrode and determination of the detection limit and sensitivity are described and discussed. Finally the evaluation of obtained results and results comparison to hygienic limits are included.

Preparation and characterisation of ceramic electroactive materials for Na-ion batteries
Vaněk, Martin ; Libich, Jiří (referee) ; Čech, Ondřej (advisor)
Hlavním cílem této práce je charakterizace vzorků titanátů, jako materiálů pro sodíko-iontové (Na-ion) akumulátory. Syntéza některých vzorků je součástí této práce. Charakterizace je zaměřena na elektrochemické vlastnosti, složení a morfologii použitých materiálů. První část se zabývá lithium-iontovými (Li-ion) akumulátory. Byly vybrány, protože jsou ve vědeckých článcích dobře popsány a základní funkční princip je aplikovatelný také na Na-ion akumulátory. Materiály používáné pro katody, anody a elektrolyty následují po krátké části shrnující parametry a konstrukci Li-ion akumulátorů. Následující kapitola je zaměřena na sodíko-iontové akumulátory. Srovnání sodíku a lithia je následováno materiály používanými pro elektrody a elektrolyty (s důrazem na anodové materiály). Třetí část popisuje analytické metody použité pro charakterizaci elektrod a materiálů. Jedná se o elektrochemickou charakterizaci (cyklická voltametrie a galvanostatické cyklování s potenciálovým omezením), morfologii (rastrovací elektronová mikroskopie) a složení (X-ray difrakční spektroskopie). Poslední dvě kapitoly obsahují syntézu a charakterizaci sodného titanátu a charakterizaci dvou vzorků TiO2. Výsledky této práce jsou shrnuty v závěru.

Hair as a bioindicator of contamination of risk metals
Zmijová, Marie ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Zlámalová Gargošová, Helena (advisor)
The use of hair as a bioindicator of environmental contamination by risk elements is becoming more and more common. This bachelor thesis deals with the use of this matrix for analysis using the voltammetric method. It focuses on the optimization of the method for determining the concentration of cadmium, copper, lead and zinc in real hair samples and monitors the effects on the incorporation of these elements into the hair fiber. The presence of zinc and copper was confirmed in all samples analyzed. Cadmium could only be quantified in one sample. The effect of gender and age on the concentration of elements has not been demonstrated. Concentration of lead has been linked to smoking, with higher concentrations found in smoker’s hair than in non-smoker’s.

Optimization of thick-film electrochemical sensor's electrode system
Cupal, Miroslav ; Adámek, Martin (referee) ; Prášek, Jan (advisor)
Master’s thesis deals with thick/film sensor’s electrodes optimization. The aim of this work is to determine how the geometric size and shape of the electrodes affect the output current response. Technology and electro-analytical method is described in the theoretical part. The practical part is aimed at thick-films electrodes and sensors optimalization. It is here each optimization TLV electrodes in terms of their impact on the size of the output current response three-electrode electrochemical system using standard electrodes. Similarly, there is a study of the effect size performed on one common electrode free-electrodes sensor. Finally, there are studied various forms of electrode area three-electrode thick-film sensor in terms of their effect on the output current response. Summarized results are described in the final part of the work.

Bruštík, David ; Komendová, Renata (referee) ; Řezáčová, Veronika (advisor)
This bachelor thesis concentrates on the optimization of conditions for voltammetric determination of selected microelements, specifically zinc, copper, cadmium and lead. The theoretical part describes the individual properties of selected elements and their toxicity, occurrence and important figures of concentration. The practicable methods suitable for the determination of these microelements are summarized and the voltammetric analysis is described in depth. The experimental section deals with the optimization of dissolution voltammetry conditions, the description of the method used and the analysis of selected real samples.
