Comparison of detection techniques for analysis of saccharides by capillary electrophoresis
Vlčková, Nikol ; Křížek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Kozlík, Petr (referee)
The aim of this work was to compare detection techniques of capillary electrophoresis to determine saccharides. The techniques were contactless conductivity detection, direct and indirect UV detection and fluorescence detection. Determined saccharides were glucose, fructose and sucrose, lactose was employed as internal standard. For conductivity detection the capillary has internal diameter of 20 µm. Voltage applied to capillary was 15 kV and temperature was 25 řC. 40mM NaOH was used as BGE. The calibration dependence was measured between 0,005 - 0,5 mg/ml. Repeteabilityof peak areas and migration times was measured in two concentration levels of 0,02 and 0,2 mg/ml. Detection and quantification limits were between 1,0 - 5,8 µg/ml. RSD values for repeatability of peak areas and migration times were between 0,01- 8,64 %. Difference in recovery from real concentration of analytes was between 7 - 22 %. For other detection methods the capillary had inner diameter of 50 µm. Voltage applied to capillary for indirect UV detection was 28 kV and temperature was 30 řC. Wavelength for detection was 207 nm and 50mM glycylgylycine with pH value of 12,8 was used as BGE. The calibration dependence was measured between 0,1-1 mg/ml. Repeteability of peak areas and migration times was measured in two concentration...

Determination of proteinogenic amino acids by high-performance separation techniques
Hodek, Ondřej ; Křížek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Pacáková, Věra (referee) ; Tůma, Petr (referee)
(EN) Proteinogenic amino acids are key components of living organisms. Thus, the latest metabolomics research has focused on developing fast and sensitive methods for the determination of amino acids. In this context, this thesis contains two studies describing development of high-performance separation techniques for the quantification of amino acids. In the first study, a capillary electrophoresis method was developed for the determination of free amino acids in tobacco plants, particularly focusing on optimizing the extraction of amino acids from solid plant materials. The extraction procedure was optimized using design of experiments (DoE) to obtain the highest possible extraction yield of amino acids. Factors such as volume and concentration of the extraction solvent (hydrochloric acid) were assessed as the most significant. Subsequently, the optimal values of these factors were determined using response surface methodology (RSM). Lastly, proteinogenic amino acids were quantified using capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection and calibration with internal standard, which improved the precision of the method. The second study aimed at developing a supercritical fluid chromatography method for the determination of free proteinogenic amino acids in human plasma. The most...
