Transport Properties of Gellan Hydrogels
Sokolínský, Jan ; Sedláček, Petr (referee) ; Kalina, Michal (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the characterization of mechanical and transport properties of gellan based hydrogel systems. As gellan gum is a biopolymer, hydrogels based on this biopolymer are suitable candidates for use in the pharmaceutical industry and medical applications. The characterization of mechanical properties was realized by rheological analysis and by drying scales, transport properties were characterized by diffusion experiments in combination with the detection using UV-VIS spectrometry. The result of this work is a comparation and commentary of the measured data, in order to provide an overview of the properties of physical gellan gum hydrogels. It was found out that by changing the concentration of the biopolymer and by a suitable selection of the dispersion medium, transport, and mechanical properties of the physical gellan gum hydrogels can be modified.
