Barrier properties of varnishes for protection of photographs
Lokotschová, Radka ; Čeppan, Michal (referee) ; Veselý, Michal (advisor)
In this diploma thesis the basic principles of inkjet print, ink composition, print media and degradation mechanisms of ink dyes are summarized. The thesis deals with study of varnish barrier properties in coloured inkjet prints. Permeability of water vapour and oxygen (parts of atmosphere) depending on different coatings are tested there. In addition the influence of ozone on degradation of dyes was studied, while ozone was permeating through barrier varnish layer of inkjet print. Ozone plays an important role in degradation processes of the inkjet prints and it also causes a gas-fading. Concentrations of acting ozone were established by iodometric titration. Simultaneously kinetics of degradation of Orange 7 was studied on indicator papers.

Diffusion of dyes in biopolymeric hydrogels
Vyroubal, David ; Mravec, Filip (referee) ; Klučáková, Martina (advisor)
This thesis is focused on diffusion of dyes in biopolymer-based hydrogels. These hydrogels are based on interaction between biopolymer-like electrolytes with oppositely charged surfactants. When polyelectrolytes interact with oppositely charged surfactants, micelle-like nano-containers can be formed. These nano-containers are able of binding hydrophobic compounds. In this study, combination of modified dextran (diethylaminoethyl dextran) with positive charge and oppositely charged sodium dodecylsulphate as surfactant was used for preparation of hydrogels. Next type of hydrogel was based on hyaluronan and positive charged surfactant Septonex (carbethoxypendecinium bromide). As a diffusion probes in hydrogels dyes Nile red and ATTO 488 were used. The diffusion of these dyes from aqeous solutions of NaCl or surfactants into hydrogels was monitored in time. Transport of dyes into structure of hydrogels was characterized by diffusion coefficients and structural parameters of hydrogels.

New Approaches in Cardiac Optical Mapping
Švrček, Martin ; Kizek, René (referee) ; Sovka, Pavel (referee) ; Provazník, Ivo (advisor)
This dissertation deals with new approaches in cardiac optical mapping. The principle of cardiac optical mapping as well as the current research in this field was described. The new measurement system was developed and its characteristics presented. The system design allows epicardial and endocardial mapping, employing new ratiometric techniques in 2D acquisition and simultaneous electrical and optical mapping. The measured characteristics of fluorescent dye di-4-ANEPPSS were presented. The relation between movement and consequent motion artifacts is well described. Several new approaches in signal processing were proposed, including new ratiometry technique and using image registration to suppress motion artifacts. The algorithm for elastic image registration of optical signals and innovative method for verification of registration process were presented. Application of all proposed approaches and its results are included and discussed.

Multicomponent Analysis
Kovářová, Lucie ; Kubíček, Vladimír (advisor) ; Drastík, Martin (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biophysics and Physical Chemistry Candidate: Lucie Kovářová Supervisor: Ing. Vladimír Kubíček, CSc. Title of Diploma Thesis: Multicomponent analysis This diploma thesis deals with the determination of concentrations of individual dyes in mixtures by multicomponent spectrophotometric analysis. The method was tested on selected dyes which were divided into two groups. The first group contains methyl orange, methyl red, orange II and phenol red. The second group consists of methylene blue, bromocresol green and thymol blue. Within each group mixtures were prepared containing combinations of two, three and four dyes in various ratio. Spectra of prepared mixtures were measured by diode array UV/VIS spectrophotometer. Absorbance values were read at wavelengths of absorption maxima of the individual dyes. Using the pseudoinverse matrix, concentration ratios of components were calculated from the absorbance values. The determination in determined and over determined systems was performed. On the basis of the results obtained by the method of analysis it is possible to determine the individual concentration of the multi-component dyes mixtures without prior separation. Keywords: spectrophotometry, multicomponent analysis,...
