Determination of selected components in human urine with electrophoresis in short capillary.
Makrlíková, Anna
Capillary zone electrophoresis is frequently used in various analyses. In this diploma thesis a hydrodynamic sample introduction method controlled by pressure pulse has been proposed for short-capillary electrophoresis. The base electrolyte flushes sample from the loop of a six-way sampling valve and is carried to the injection end of the capillary. At the time when the sample zone reached the capillary, a short pressure impulse is generated in the electrolyte stream, which provides injection of the sample into the capillary. Then the electrolyte flow is stopped and the separation voltage is turned on. The amount of sample introduced to the capillary is controlled by the duration of the pressure pulse. This new sample introduction method was tested in the determination of ammonia, histidine, creatinine, uric acid and hippuric acid in human urine and for rapid screening of the contents of the inorganic ions in cerebrospinal fluid and blood plasma. The determination was performed in a capillary with an overall length of 10,5 cm and two base electrolytes was tested - 50 mM MES + 5 mM NaOH (pH 5,10) and 1 M acetic acid + 1,5 mM crown ether 18-crown-6 (pH 2,40). Using dual detection techniques contactless conductivity and UV spectrometric detection, anorganic and organic substances in the sample could...

Electrophoresis in short capillary with dual detection.
Kaliba, David ; Opekar, František (advisor) ; Jelínek, Ivan (referee)
Capillary zone electrophoresis is an analytical method frequently used in many laboratories for solving various analytical problems. This diploma thesis describes one of many applications of capillary zone electrophoresis using a unique laboratory apparatus composed of a short capillary and dual conductivity/UV detector placed in one detection point of the separation capillary. In the first part of this thesis, the laboratory apparatus was tested by the separation of small inorganic and organic ions. Sodium, potassium, tyramine and histidine ions were used to test the two parts of the dual detector. Experimentally obtained mobilities of these ions were compared with those calculated from the tabulated values. In the second part, the apparatus was used for determination of analytes in samples with more complex matrixces, pharmaceuticals Acylcoffin and B-komplex produced by Zentiva, a.s. One analyte was chosen from each pharmaceutical preparation for determination of its concentration in the preparation, caffeine from Acylcoffine and thiamine from B-komplex. The concentrations were calulated using three different calibration methods and the experimentally obtained values were compared with those specified by the pharmaceuticals producer. Key words: capillary electrophoresis; short capillary;...

Electrophoretic separations of saccharides in short capillary.
Vochyánová, Blanka ; Opekar, František (advisor) ; Jelínek, Ivan (referee)
A new laboratory system has been developed for rapid electrophoretic separations and determinations of inorganic and organic ions. The instrument employs short fused silica capillary in combination with contactless conductivity detection. The basic functions of the apparatus have been tested using mixture of inorganic ions. It has further been applied to separations of neutral mono- and disaccharides. The model mixture contains five saccharides (sucrose, lactose, glucose, fructose and ribose). The technique developed has been used to determine sucrose, glucose and fructose in high-energy drinks.

Electrophoresis in short capillaries
Podhorná, Petra ; Opekar, František (advisor) ; Samcová, Eva (referee)
The laboratory-made apparatus for electrophoretic separations in short capillaries has been tested. The basic functions of the apparatus (separation efficiency, resolution, migration time) have been tested using mixture of K+ and Na+ ions. The model mixture of basic amino-acids (arginine, lysine, histidine and its derivatives, 3-methylhistidine and 1-methylhistidine) has also been separated and detected using contactless conductometric detector. Histidine in real sample of urine has also been determined. Keywords: capillary electrophoresis, short capillary, alkaline aminoacids
