2021 - English
The main aim of this research was to develop a new method for voltammetric determination of\npopular antidepressants, analgesics, and illicit drugs using a laboratory-made 3D printed\nelectrode and to compare the achieved results with those registered using a commercially\navailable glassy carbon electrode. These experiments represent the first step in the development\nof a method applicable in clinical and forensic praxis for the rapid and inexpensive\ndetermination of commonly misused groups of biologically active compounds.

A comparative study of covalent glucose oxidase and laccase immobilization techniques at powdered supports for biosensors fabrication
Tvorynska, Sofiia; Barek, J.; Josypčuk, Bohdan; Nesměrák, K.
2020 - English
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.

2020 - English
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.

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.

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.

2019 - English
This contribution is focused on the development of electroanalytical methods for the monitoring of anthraquinone-based anticancer drugs in physiological solution by combination of liquid-flow system and dialysis catheter, possibly inserted into blood circulation of patients. For this purpose, amperometric detection with dual glassy carbon electrode was developed and derivate of these drugs, anthraquinone-2-sulphonate, was used as a model compound. Two different flow rates of carrier solution (physiological solution) were tested (specifically, 1 and 5 mu L min(-1)) and the dependence of peak currents of anthraquinone-2-sulphonate on its concentration was verified

2019 - English
Derivatives of 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) are well-known bident ligands which had a lot of interesting applications thanks to their coordination abilities. Selected 1,10-phenanthroline compounds were studied by electrochemical methods. Depending on their different substituents were observed several oxidation and reduction voltammetric peaks. The study involves also in situ spectroeletrochemistry, infrared spectroscopy and identification of products by HPLC-DAD and HPLC-ESI MS/MS.
