Viscometric study of L-Lysine- and 6-aminocaproic acid-hyaluronan systems behavior within the range of low aminoacids concentrations
Šimáčková, Marcela ; Běťák, Jiří (referee) ; Chytil, Martin (advisor)
This bachelor thesis investigates the interaction between high-molecular weight hyaluronic acid (1.75 MDa HA) and amino acids, particularly lysine and 6-aminocaproic acid. The interactions should occur between the carboxyl groups of HA carrying a negative charge and a positive charge located on the nitrogen atom of the protonated amino acids. The presence of these interactions would mean the possibility of establishing bioactive compounds, e.g. drugs, on hyaluronic acid, in which it would act as a targetting carrier. The interactions were examined at low concentrations for both aminoacids, i.e. below 10 mmoldm-3, and for 6-aminocaproic acid also at high aminoacid concentrations, i.e. above 20 mmoldm-3. The presence of interaction was investigated using not only rheology, but also by measuring pH and conductivity. Based on this research, the interactions manifested in terms of a decrease in the system viscosity.
Rheological study of high-molecular weight hyaluronan-protonated aminoacids interactions
Zeman, Jan ; Běťák, Jiří (referee) ; Chytil, Martin (advisor)
The study deals with interactions of hyaluronic acid with protonized amino acids Lysin and 6-aminocaproic acid. To study the interactions pH-metry, conductance measurement and reometry were used. The mixtures of hyaluronan and the aminoacids of different concentrations were measured and the data were compered with data obtained from measurement of amino acid samples in pure water. Observed interactions occured in the aminoacids concentrations between 0 to 10 mmolxdm3, then the HyA carboxylic groups were fully bonded by amino acids and no more interactions were recognized.
Study on interactions of protonated aminoacids with low-molecular weight hyaluronan
Chlumská, Jana ; Kalina, Michal (referee) ; Chytil, Martin (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with interactions between hyaluronic acid (HA) of low molecular weight (110-130 kDa) and protonated aminoacids lysine and 6-aminocaproic acid. For investigation of these interactions, methods such as pH-metry, conductance measurement, viscometry and dynamic light scattering were used. The electrostacic interactions between carboxylic group of HA and the aminogroup of the aminoacids are presumed. Proving these interactions would allow us to physically modify HA and further more, using such a system as a carrier of pharmaceuticals. The interactions of protonated lysine with HA were studied in pure water or in the solution of NaCl (c = 15 mmol•dm-3). Interactions of 6-aminocaproic acid were studied only in pure water. Both aminoacids were in the concentration range 0.9-20 mmol•dm-3. The decrease in the viscosity of the solutions indicates the interactions for lysine; for 6-aminocaproic acid the interactions also occured, but not as signifciantly as for the system containing lysine.
Study of interactions of hyaluronan-amino acids
Jugl, Adam ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Hurčíková, Andrea (advisor)
The master´s thesis deals with the study of the interaction between the polysaccharide hyaluronan of diffrerent molecular weights with the amino acids arginine, lysine, arginine hydrochloride and 6-aminocaproic acid. They are expected interaction between carboxyl groups of hyaluronan and amino groups of amino acids. These interactions were investigated by using ultrasonic spectroscopy, DLS, measuring pH and conductivity. Obtained results were compared with sodium polystyrene sulfonate. With ultrasonic spectroscopy was observed a change of concentration inkrement for titration of amino acid to water or polymers solutions especially for high molecular weight hyaluronan and for NaPSS in combination with 6AKK in concentration range of added amino acid 0–30 mM. The size of this change could mean a degree of interaction between polymers and amino acids. This theory has not been confirmed by other methods. By pH and conductivity measurements interations between arginine and low molecular weight hyaluronan and NaPSS were only confirmed. There was no possibility to make unequivocal conclusions from determination of particle size and zeta potential by DLS. Overall, the issue of the interaction of amino acids with polyanions was proved above expectations complex and will be appropriate to further expand the observations made in this thesis.
