Study of interaction of negatively charged vesicular systems with polycations
Repová, Romana ; Klučáková, Martina (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the preparation and characterization of negatively charged catanionic vesicular systems and their combination with selected polycations. The catanionic vesicular system was prepared by mixing of two oppositely charged surfactants SDS and CTAB. The negative charge as well as the stability of the vesicular system was provided by the incorporation of phosphatidic acid. Polycations, DEAE and TMC, have been selected for use in a pharmaceutical applications. Characterization of the prepared systems was performed by measuring DLS and ELS. The results indicate that we were able to prepare stable negatively charged vesicles that were eligible to non-covalently interact with selected polycations.

Interaction of negatively charged vesicular systems based on ionic amphiphilic pairs with polycations
Fardová, Lucie ; Venerová, Tereza (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This work is focused on the preparation of negatively charged vesicular systems from amphiphilic pairs deprived of counterions and their interaction with the polycation. First, vesicular systems were prepared from the surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. The addition of cholesterol and phosphatidic acid stabilized and at the same time gained a negative charge. Subsequently, there was an interaction with the polycation diethylaminoethyl-dextran hydrochloride. The systems were investigated by the measuring of particle size, zeta potential, generalized polarization and anisotropy. The measurement of generalized polarization was enabled with the laurdan probe and measurement of anisotropy was performed with the introduction of the 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene probe. The results indicate the successful preparation of stable, negatively charged systems that interacted with positive diethylaminoethyl-dextran hydrochloride, which affected the behavior of the outer membrane but not the inner. The systems were still stable.

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.
