|Preparation and characterization of micro- and nanoparticles with selected drugs
Sosková, Simona ; Bokrová, Jitka (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
The presented bachelor thesis is focused on the way to prepare combined micro- and nanoparticles containing some natural extracts with antioxidant effects, ibuprofen as the anti-inflammatory and analgetic agent and clotrimazole as the agent with an antifungal effect. The theoretical part contains an introduction of the methods of liposome preparation and a review of encapsulation techniques, methods of particles characterization, and analysis of active substances content. Furthermore, the yeasts of the genus Candida and the methods of the antimicrobial activity determination are described. The mentioned components were encapsulated into liposomes, alginate and chitosan particles. The antioxidant activity of the extracts was determined spectrophotometrically. The encapsulation effectivity of active substances into particles and the long-term stability of encapsulated components were determined and compared too. The HPLC method was used for measuring of the concentration of drugs and spectrophotometric method was used to quantify the content of polyphenols. Prepared particles were characterized with DLS method (size) and zeta- potential (stability). Finally, antibacterial properties of prepared particles and extracts using the test system Candida glabrata were studied. The antimycotic effect of particles, disturbed liposomes and extracts was compared. Finally, potential utilization of prepared liposomes in a cosmetic or pharmaceutical product is proposed.
