Preparation, characterization of trimethylchitosan and verification of its interaction ability with regards to variable charged ionic compounds
Bayerová, Zuzana ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Smilek, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is to study the interactions of trimethylchitosan with oppositely charged substances with regard to its potential biomedical use. A substantial step before the study of interactions was a successful synthesis of trimethylchitosan, which was subsequently confirmed by characterization of the final synthesis product using physico-chemical methods (infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance). The result product was subjected to negatively charged interactions such as sodium dodecyl sulphate as a representative of the ionic surfactant, alginate as a natural polysaccharide representative and Chicago Blue as a representative of the anionic dye. The ability to interact with sodium dodecyl sulfate and alginate was demonstrated by the formation of hydrogels, which were subsequently characterized by mechanical viscosity tests using rheometric properties. The positive affinity of trimethylchitosan for organic dyes has been investigated in agarose-based support hydrogel matrices for changes in transport and barrier properties.

Preparation and characterization of complex liposomal for drug delivery systems
Szabová, Jana ; Pekař, Miloslav (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the preparation and characterization of stealth liposomes and their combination with trimethylchitosan (TMC). This complex could find application in the field of inhalation administration. Stealth liposomes were prepared from neutral phophatidylcholine, negatively charged fosfatidic acid and polyethyleneglycol bounded to phosphatidylethanolamine. We have managed to prepare stealth liposomes with suitable properties that should guarantee passive targeting without evocation an immune response, despite the content of the negative component. We also found a suitable method of preparation for stealth liposome–TMC complex, where the change of size and zeta potential confirmed the non–covalent bound between two components despite the content of the polyethyleneglycol.

Incorporation of small organic hydrophilic substances into vesicular systems
Janoušková, Vendula ; Krouská, Jitka (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the study of the encapsulation efficiency of hydrophilic drugs and their releasing from the aqueous core depending on the different composition of the components of individual liposomal systems. The hydrophilic fluorescent probe called pyranine was chosen as a model drug. The aim was to prepare liposomes which would be suitable for inhalation administration in terms of their properties. These liposomes would provide passive targeting with prolonged release time without causing negative side effects on the organism. We have succeeded in developing a standard operating procedure for the incorporation of hydrophilic drugs. Liposomal systems have been prepared consisting of the addition of various components as cholesterol, phosphatidic acid, pegylated phosphatidylethanolamine and trimethylchitosan. Furthermore, we were able to characterize the individual liposomal systems in terms of size, stability and encapsulation efficiency which are important physicochemical properties for further application potential.

Incorporation of low molecular weight and high molecular weight substances into vesicular systems
Geistová, Karolína ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Mravec, Filip (advisor)
This master´s thesis deals with the study of the incorporation of low and high molecular weight substances into liposomal systems. The aim of the work was to determine the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of the active substance and the influence of individual components of the liposomal system on EE. Liposomes were prepared from dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine. They were stabilized by cholesteroland and phosphatidic acid was added to give a negative charge. Stealth properties gain the binding of polyethylene glycol and other trimethyl chitosan we enabled the entry of liposomes into the bloodstream by the paracellular pathway. Vitamin C and the enzyme bromelain were used for incorporation into liposomes. UV-VIS spectrophotometry was used to determine the encapsulation efficiency of liposomes prepared by combining the individual components. It has been suggested that vitamin C and the enzyme can be incorporated into liposomes, but an enzyme with a higher EE. Furthermore, phosphatidic acid and trimethyl chitosan have been found to affect EE, which increases the EE of vitamin C and decreases the EE of the enzyme.
