Nový grafenový inkoust pro výrobu levných a citlivých tištěných senzorů vyvinuli výzkumníci z CATRIN Univerzity Palackého ve spolupráci s kolegy z VŠB-Technické univerzity Ostrava a Univerzity Karlovy. Při přípravě inkoustu poprvé využili metodu atomárního inženýrství a díky navázaným atomům mědi jsou schopni detekovat velmi citlivě dopamin – neurotransmiter, který umožňuje přenos signálů mezi nervovými buňkami. Přístup <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/advs.76796">představený v časopise Advanced Science</a> má velké šance uplatnit se v lékařské diagnostice.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/CATRIN_Atom_po_atomu_Vedci_ukazali_novy_smer_v_lekarske_diagnostice_8a02ad6a66.webp" alt="CATRIN: Atom po atomu.

Jeho širšímu uplatnění v lékařské diagnostice však dosud bránil nedostatek atomárně upravených materiálů i absence na nich založených tisknutelných inkoustů.&nbsp;Nyní se vědcům podařilo vyvinout novou třídu atomárně dopovaných grafenových materiálů a také inkoust pro přípravu citlivých tištěných senzorů. Sázka na měď se vyplatila při detekci dopaminu, jehož sledování je důležité pro biomedicínský výzkum a vývoj pokročilých diagnostických technologií některých onemocnění včetně Alzheimerovy choroby.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/CATRIN_Atom_po_atomu_Vedci_ukazali_novy_smer_v_lekarske_diagnostice_2_97e419f039.webp" alt="CATRIN: Atom po atomu.

Samotný senzor vyžaduje pouze 1,3 mikrogramu aktivního inkoustu, stojí přibližně jednu korunu a dával stabilní odezvu minimálně po dobu tří měsíců. Inkoust je navíc plně kompatibilní s běžně dostupnými inkoustovými materiálovými tiskárnami. To vytváří velký potenciál pro přípravu cenově dostupných, digitálně navržených senzorů, jejichž funkci lze přizpůsobovat atom po atomu,“ uvedl korespondující autor článku Michal Otyepka.Základem pro novou generaci atomárních inkoustů byla dusíkem dopovaná grafenová kyselina (NGA), kterou vědci z CATRIN vyvinuli před několika lety. Nyní ji postupně obohacovali různými jednotlivými atomy kovů včetně mědi, železa nebo manganu.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/CATRIN_Atom_po_atomu_Vedci_ukazali_novy_smer_v_lekarske_diagnostice_3_c15d831792.webp" alt="CATRIN: Atom po atomu.

Zatímco atomy mědi výrazně zesilují signál dopaminu, ostatní kovy jej naopak potlačují. Rozhodující&nbsp;tedy není jen samotná přítomnost izolovaných atomů kovu, ale také to, o jaký konkrétní kov se jedná. To je velmi důležitý poznatek pro další vývoj biosenzorů,“ objasnil první autor Martin-Alex Nalepa.Publikované výsledky představují novou třídu senzorických materiálů s velkým potenciálem v lékařské diagnostice. Vědci nabízí obecně využitelnou platformu pro vývoj grafenových inkoustů s jednotlivými atomy kovů a otevírají cestu ke škálovatelné, reprodukovatelné a materiálově úsporné výrobě pokročilých elektrochemických senzorů. „Jsme na začátku a fascinují nás nové možnosti, které se před námi otevírají. Vidíme, že změnou typu atomů můžeme řídit citlivost a selektivitu senzoru. Kromě dopaminu tak umíme velmi přesně stanovit například imunoglobuliny – protilátky, jejichž množství a typ mohou být důležitým ukazatelem autoimunitních nebo infekčních onemocnění,“ zdůraznil další z autorů článku Radek Zbořil.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/CATRIN_Atom_po_atomu_Vedci_ukazali_novy_smer_v_lekarske_diagnostice_4_273cd760a5.webp" alt="CATRIN: Atom po atomu.

Jejich klíčovou součástí jsou funkcionalizované elektrody, pro jejichž výrobu se ukázaly jako velmi vhodné materiály právě na bázi grafenu. Základem úspěchu olomouckých vědců byla cílená příprava grafenového inkoustu s potřebnými vlastnostmi.Výzkum podpořil projekt TECHSCALE z operačního programu Jan Amos Komenský.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/CATRIN_Atom_po_atomu_Vedci_ukazali_novy_smer_v_lekarske_diagnostice_5_b1778f77f2.jpg" alt="CATRIN: Atom po atomu.

<h5>Session 1: Beer off flavours</h5>
What would you do if suddenly the taste of your beer was different? This is a big issue for manufacturers and where GC-MS analysis can help. 
<h5>Session 2: Beer Integrity and quality</h5>
Beer, malt and wort testing is essential to producing a quality product, off flavours are the way to turn your customers off your products. Many of the tests performed on beer samples can require multiple analyzers, but there is another way to analyze multiple parameters at the same time.
The Thermo Scientific Gallery Plus Beermaster discrete analyzer can deliver reliable analyses for multiple tests such as bitterness, acidity and sugar content—all from a single sample and run up to 350 tests per hour. This system’s automated workflow and fast analysis work together to ensure high throughput and low cost-per-test. Because the instrument operates without manual intervention, your staff can enjoy walkaway productivity and focus on more strategic tasks in the lab. More testing, from fewer instruments and with fewer techs.

<h5>Session 3: Addressing authenticity of fish oils by online coupling of GC-IRMS with an organic mass spectrometer.</h5>
As fish oils become a popular and precious source of omega-3 fatty acids, the risk of mislabeling and adulteration has risen significantly. The fatty acid profiles of different fish oils do not often allow the discrimination between different sources and geographical origins. In this study, the compound specific multi-isotope analysis of fatty acids allowed the discrimination of fish oils from different provenance, following risk-based comparisons from market experience. In the light of emerging cases of food fraud, we present how GC-MS-IRMS advanced technology can tackle these problems for addressing authenticity of fish oils.
