In order to develop the optimal strategy and to deepen the knowledge in the field of enzyme immobilization, three different techniques of covalent binding for two enzymes (glucose oxidase and laccase) at powdered surfaces were compared. Immobilization protocol was optimized by changing supports (two mesoporous silica powders (SBA−15, MCM−41) and a cellulose powder), the functionalized\ngroups introduced at support surfaces (−NH and −COOH), and the methods of activation (glutaraldehyde and carbodiimide). Amino and carboxyl functionalized mesoporous silica and cellulose powders\nwere prepared by silanization using (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and carboxyethylsilanetriol, respectively. It was found that coupling of both enzymes by their –NH groups through glutaraldehyde to -NH functionalized supports, in particular SBA15−NH and cellulose−NH for glucose oxidase, MCM41−NH for laccase, showed the highest activity and the best stability.

Photocatalytic concrete screeds with self-cleaning and antimicrobial function have been developed and tested. These building materials contain sand grains with deposited composite TiO2/SiO2 layers. Two types of the screeds, grey and white, were prepared and their photoactivity and material characteristics were compared. Commercial TiO2 photocatalysts from several manufacturers were employed. Effects of different parameters, such as temperature of the coated sand calcination, humidity, and surface abrasion, were followed. Mechanical properties of the screeds were analyzed by SEM/XRD microscopy. Photocatalytic activity was tested by means of NOx oxidation (ISO norm 22197-1/2007). Antibacterial activity was evaluated by modified ISO norm 27447/2009 with Bacillus subtilis as a model organism.

Determination of heavy metal poisoning antidote 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid using silver solid amalgam electrode
Choińska-Mlynarczyk, Marta; Hrdlička, Vojtěch; Redondo, B. R.; Barek, J.; Navrátil, Tomáš
2020 - English
2,3-Dimercapto-1-propane-sulfonic acid (DMPS) was investigated using direct current voltammetry (DCV), differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry (DPCSV), differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV), and elimination voltammetry with linear scan (EVLS) at a polished (p-AgSAE)and at a meniscus modified silver solid amalgam electrode (m-AgSAE). EVLS confirmed two consecutive reductions with coupled proton/electron transfer. Voltammetric titrations of DMPS with Pb2+ proved complex formation, with limits of quantification (LOQs) and detection (LODs) 0.3 and 0.1 mu mol L-1 at m-AgSAE and 0.8 and 0.3 mu mol L-1 at p-AgSAE, respectively. Determination of DMPS in commercial drug Dimaval and human urine samples confirmed practical applicability of the developed method.

Voltametrické stanovení pálivosti chilli paprik na elektrodě ze skelného uhlíku modifikované fosfolipidy
Skopalová, J.; Rajcová, A.; Vokounová, D.; Navrátil, Tomáš
2019 - Czech
Kapsaicin je přírodní alkaloid vyskytující se v plodech chilli paprik, které patří k nejdůležitějším a nejrozšířenějším kořením. Za jejich popularitou stojí významné organoleptické vlastnosti (typická pálivá chuť), antioxidační či antimikrobiální účinky. Pálivost chilli paprik je hlavním důvodem jejich konzumace a z pohledu konzumenta představuje jednu z jejich nejdůležitějších charakteristik. Od toho se proto odvozuje potřeba tuto charakteristiku kvantifikovat. Míra pálivosti přímo souvisí s obsahem kapsaicinu a jemu podobných látek (kapsaicinoidů) v paprikách. Kromě potravinářství nachází kapsaicin své užití i v lesnictví (zemědělství) jako ochrana před okusem stromů zvěří. The aim of this study was to develop a simple method for evaluation of the pungency in chili peppers with a glassy carbon electrode modified using phospholipid membrane prepared from asolectin. For these purposes cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) have been used. A few different methods have been tested: direct method, transfer method on unmodified and modified electrode, using standard addition method as well as calibration curve method. A statistically significant correlations with the results of the reference HPLC method have been found in case of voltammetric methods, especially in DPV with asolectin modified electrode.

This work compares single molecule conductance measurements of selected organic systems containing identical oligophenylene molecular wires and different tripodal anchoring groups. Single molecule conductance G was obtained by a scanning tunneling microscopy break junction technique complemented by theoretical calculations based on the density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism. Two molecules were compared where the same oligophenylene wire is connected to one of the electrodes via a tripod substituted on each leg by a thiol group either in the meta or para position. By combined experimental and theoretical analysis it was possible to confirm that single molecule conductance in the metal-molecule-metal junction of both molecules corresponds to a fully extended molecular wire, which is attached to one of the electrodes by all three thiolate bonds of the tripod. Experimental results confirmed that G value of meta-connected molecules is lower than that of para, whereas junction formation probability was higher for meta functionalization.

On UV-Vis Spectroelectrochemistry of Luteolin-7-O-Glucoside
Castano, A.; Sokolová, Romana; Degano, I.
2019 - English
The UV-Vis spectroelectrochemical cell containing an optically transparent platinum net used as the working electrode was tested in two regimes of electrochemical measurement, cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry, respectively. A three electrode setup used silver quasi reference electrode and platinum electrode serving as a counter electrode. The calibration of the spectroelectrochemical cell was performed for one-electron oxidation processes as well as for two-electron oxidations. The spectral changes during the oxidation of luteolin-7-O-Glucoside gave the information about the electroactive chromophores in molecule. Resulted spectra were compared with luteolin. The identification of products of oxidation was done by complementary analytical techniques HPLC-DAD and HPLC-ESI-MS/MS.

Voltametrie na uhlíkové pastové elektrodě modifikované silikagelem
Šestáková, Ivana; Navrátil, Tomáš
2019 - Czech
Kompositní uhlíkové elektrody s obsahem silikagelu 1,2 se začaly používat již v 90. letech minulého století, a to ve variantě pevné (s obsahem ceresinu) nebo pastové (s parafinovým olejem). Přítomnost silikagelu v uhlíkové pastě vede ke zlepšené amperometrické detekce látek, které lze na povrchu modifikovaném silikagelem nahromadit, a to jak látek organických, tak iontů kovů 3. Reprodukovatelnost povrchu a tím i vlastního stanovení je nejlépe zabezpečena použitím pastové elektrody se speciálně vyvinutým teflonovým držákem s pohyblivým pístem 4. Možnosti charakterizace uhlíkových pastových elektrod byly dále popsány v přehledném článku 5.\nVlastnosti uhlíkové pasty modifikované silikagelem byly dokumentovány při oxidaci flavonoidů a oxidaci kadmia v přítomnosti cysteinu a fytochelatinu PC2. Voltammetry using silica gel modified carbon paste electrode (SiO2-CPE) for oxidation of selected flavonoid showed better sensitivity and reproducibility than oxidation using glassy carbon or unmodified carbon paste electrode. Only SiO2-CPE is useful for study of cadmium complexation with cysteine containing ligand as phytochelatin or metallothionein. Voltammetry on boron doped diamond electrode showed only peak of sulfur compound oxidation, which decreased with the addition of cadmium ions.

Electrochemical Enzymatic Biosensors for Determination of Catecholamines in Flow Systems
Josypčuk, Bohdan; Barek, J.; Josypčuk, Oksana
2019 - English
Several biosensors (BS) based on flow enzymatic mini-reactors containing a mesoporous silica powder covered by enzyme laccase or tyrosinase were used for determination of L-DOPA, dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. The silica powder of MCM-41 with covalently bonded laccase was found to be the best reactor filling for the detection of catecholamines. Relative current response of such BS was 100 % for dopamine, 32.1 % for L-DOPA, 26.2 % for noradrenaline, and 0.71 % for adrenaline. The practical applicability of Lac-MCM41 biosensor was successfully verified by the determination of dopamine and noradrenaline in medical solutions for infusions.
