Simple flow-focusing microfluidic chip for droplet generation
Křivánková, Jana; Basova, E. Y.; Foret, František
2015 - English
There is an ascending requirement for analysis of chemical content of individual cells involving combination of various bioanalytical and optical sensors and arrangements. At the beginning of the cell analysis there is a need for creation of suitable transport vessels - droplets - that can be easily counted, sorted and serve for manipulation of cells with preserved biocompability as well. Among all of bioanalytical approaches droplet-based microfluidics proved its potential for producing droplets with precisely controlled size, shape as well as for encapsulation of reactants and delivering drugs. This study presents a simple microfluidic chip with flow-focusing geometry for generation of water droplets in fluorocarbon oil.

Comparison of ionisation properties of aetma-labeled saccharides with common labels
Partyka, Jan; Foret, František
2015 - English
We have tested (2-aminoethyl)trimethylammonium (AETMA) as a label for analysis of oligosaccharides by capillary electrophoresis with electrospray (ESI) mass spectrometry detection and compared its performance to taurine, 2-aminobenzoic acid, 2-aminobenzamide and 8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid. The AETMA-labeled saccharides were provided higher ionization signals in positive mode than native sodium or ammonium adducts and equal or higher signals than saccharides labeled by the more commonly used labels tested in this study.

System for fast analysis of explosives in the enviromnemt
Čapka, Lukáš; Večeřa, Zbyněk; Mikuška, Pavel; Šesták, Jozef; Kahle, Vladislav
2015 - English
Detection of explosives is the subject of many investigations by law enforcement agents and forensic scientist. The identification and discrimination of evidence taken from crime scenes is a common practice in forensic investigations. The higher demands on simple and fast determination of hazard materials or strange objects are required in connection with worldwide often repeated terrorist activities.

Synthesis and analysis of quantum dot conjugates intended for fret sensor
Datinská, Vladimíra; Klepárník, Karel; Belšánová, Barbora; Minárik, M.; Foret, František
2015 - English
Our work is focused on synthesis of sensor based on Fӧrster resonance energy transfer (FRET), which is aimed to be used for DNA mutation detection. The sensor is based on the attachment of laboratory synthesized quantum dot (QD) to ssDNA. A complementary chain of a sample is labeled by a fluorescent dye. Thus, only if dsDNA between both complementary chains is formed, the energy from QD (donor) can be transferr ed to the dye acceptor) and FRET is observed.

Nanostructured gold electrodes for determination of glucose in blood
Farka, Z.; Juřík, T.; Kovář, D.; Podešva, Pavel; Foret, František; Skladal, P.
2015 - English
Fast and sensitive devices for monitoring of glucose are crucial in today’s medicine. Most of the commercial glucometers are currently based on enzymatic catalysis which provides reasonable sensitivity but has a drawback in limited enzyme stability. With the development of novel surfaces, new generation of non-enzymatic sensors characterized by high sensitivity and stability is emerging. In this work, gelatin-templated nanostructured gold electrodes were developed and applied for non-enzymatic glucose determination. The analysis was done by direct electrochemical oxidation during cyclic voltammetry and amperometry with the limit of detection at 1.3 μM. The ability to detect physiological levels glucose in presence of interferents was demonstrated on deproteinized human blood serum.
