FOREWORD

FOREWORD

The Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology (FCHPT) is one of six faculties of the Slovak University of
Technology. The history of the Faculty dates back to 1939, when Law No. 188 of 25 July 1939 allowed the establishment
of a Chemical Engineering branch at the Slovak University of Technology. The specialisation profile of the Faculty has
developed steadily in accordance with the needs of the community.
The Slovak higher education has its rich history. Our Faculty follows in the footsteps of its famous predecessor in
the education of technical chemistry, i.e., the famous Mining Academy in Banská Štiavnica constituted by empress Maria
Theresa in 1762. The establishment of the Dr. M. R. Štefánik College of Technology in 1937 and subsequently, that of
the Slovak College of Technology in 1939 succeded in keeping the high standard of technical education in Slovakia.
Within the time of its existence, the Faculty has educated more than 16 700 graduates (more than 3 600
graduates in food engineering). The Faculty has trained nearly 1 300 graduates in postgraduate doctorate courses
granting the title PhD in chemical and technical sciences. Thus, the Faculty has helped considerably to increase scientific
knowledge in industry, education system, scientific and research institutes, and administrative services.
The Faculty occupies a very specific position within the Slovak Republic and relates to the whole spectrum of
chemical, food, pharmaceutical and consumer industries, and ecology. At present, some 1600 students study at the
Faculty and they are trained by qualified pedagogical and research staff.
The Faculty currently offers study in BSc courses, MSc courses, and PhD. The undergraduate form of study is
organized at two levels: Bachelor-of-Science and Master-of-Science programmes. The first level BSc course for all
students lasts three years, and is run in two branches: Chemical Technology and Food Technology. This first level of the
study ends by a state examination and a project granting the student the title Bachelor of Science (BSc). The nominal
span of the study in the BSc course is 3 years. The second level MSc course is run in 9 majors with several possible
specializations over two years. The MSc course ends by a state examination and by defending a diploma thesis. The
graduate obtains the title Master of Science (MSc). In addition to the natural-science basis, students of all branches study
basic engineering subjects, e.g. Chemical Engineering, Processes Control, Basics of Chemical and Food Processing
Technology, as well as subjects on Economy, Law and Ecology.
The highest form of university education is currently the doctorate study, which in the past was run as a form of
preparation for scientific work. In 1997 the Ministry of Education of the Slovak Republic approved the right of the Faculty
to train and to administer examinations in PhD Courses. The Faculty has conferred the title PhD in 16 branches of the
doctoral study. (Chemical Physics, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Physical Chemistry,
Macromolecular Chemistry, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Inorganic Technology and Materials, Organic Technology and
Technology of Fuels, Technology of Macromolecular Materials, Chemical Engineering and Control of Processes,
Chemistry and Technology of Environment, Chemistry and Food Technology, Biotechnology, Applied Informatics).
The Faculty has a widely oriented programme, leading to the development of basic scientific fields in chemistry,
chemical technology and food processing. This wide scientific orientation of Departments at the Faculty allows goal-
oriented training of undergraduates and thereby their quicker transition to industry. There are several scientific schools at
the Faculty which are successful at winning grants from domestic and international sources and at organising scientific
meetings. The Faculty generally maintains an important international position. In addition to basic research, the Faculty
participates in widely applied research for practice. The cooperation with many factories and companies allows for a swift
application of research results in practice. At the same time the Faculty obtains considerable financial support.
The Faculty participates in issuing the specialized scientific journals: Chemical Papers, Fibres and Textile,
Plastics and Rubber, Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, Biology, Folia Microbiologica, Vinič a Víno
(Wineyard and Wine).
The scope and quality of the scientific activity keep the Faculty at a level, which is comparable with other top
research and university centres in the world. This can be proved by the above mentioned number of grants, staff
invitations to participate in conferences abroad, wide cooperation with foreign universities and institutions, and
memberships in international organizations.
Any further details about the activities of the Faculty of Chemical Technology can be found in the Annual Report
2003.

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9128/02 Development and Application of Direct Injection Assays for
HPLC Analysis of Some Drugs and Toxic Compounds in Biological Samples (Eva
Brandšteterová, Jozef Lehotay).
The aim of the project was the development and the application of new assays with the possibility of direct injection of
biological samples into the HPLC system. SPE (Solid Phase Extraction) precolumn was integrated directly into the HPLC
system what improves validation parameter values and minimizes the personal contact with biofluids. Automated HPLC
procedures for the analysis of chosen drugs, natural and toxic compounds were compared with applied electromigration
methods.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
B. VEGA Project No 1/9129/02 Elektroanalysis by means of in-elektrode coulometric titration
and interdigitated array of microelectrodes. Optimization of stages of trace analysis (Dušan
Bustin).
The project is oriented to the investigation of in-electrode coulometric titration in porous electrodes for calibrationless
determination of trace concentrations of metels and some non-metals and to the application of elaborated procedures for
automated process analysis. It also intends to contribute to employment of chronoamperometry with the segments of
inter- digitated microelectrode arrays for the calibrationless analysis of electroactive species. Chronoamperograms are to
be obtained under redox-cycling or isolated segment conditions. The multivarite statistical data analysis are to be used for
authentification and classification of food products, environmental samples as well as for the software aided clinical
diagnosis.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
C. VEGA Project No 1/9127/02 Development of optimum methods for analyses of enantiomers
of biologically active chiral substances by high performance liquid, supercritical fluid and gas
chromatography (Ján Krupčík).
This project intends to contribute to development of methods for the direct analysis of enantiomers of selected biologically
active chiral compounds by high performance liquid (HPLC), supercritical fluid (SFC) and gas (HRGC) chromatography.
Following subparts shall be studied in this project: (i) Computer assisted optimum methods shall be developed for direct

separations of enantiomers of selected biologically active chiral compunds by HPLC, SFC and GC methods using
commercially available modified cyclodextrins (GC) and macrocyclic antibiotics (SFC and HPLC). (ii) Two columns in
series and two dimensional HRGC and or HPLC shall be applied for the separation of enantiomers in complex mixtures.
(iii) Computer assisted deconvolution of the peak clusters obtained separating the racemic mixtures shall be applied to
determine the enantiomerization barrier of the thermally labile enantiomers by dynamic HPLC, SFC and GC. (iv) Principal
component analysis and cluster analysis shall be used to classify the enantioselectivity of modified a-, b- and g-
cyclodextrin used in HRGC.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
D. VEGA Project No 1/9126/02 Large Volume Injection in Conventional and Fast Capillary Gas
Chromatography (Eva Matisová).
The aim of the project is the development of the large volume sample injection methods in combination with conventional,
fast capillary gas chromatography and GC-MS for trace analysis of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds in
multicomponent model and real environmental samples. A part of the project is connected with the development of
comprehensive gas chromatography (GCxGC) and its combination with the large volume sample injection for the
analysis of multicomponent samples of trace analytes. A part of the project is devoted to the application of the gained
knowledge to the trace and ultra-trace analysis of multicomponent mixtures of organic compounds in environmental
matrices including the sample pre-treatment for the large volume sample injection.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
E. NATO Project No SFP 977983 Minimisation of Pesticide Residues in Processed Products
and the Environment (Eva Matisová).
The project refers to pesticide science and more specifically to pesticide chemistry, and analytical methodology of
residues. Pesticide residues undergo significant changes in chemical structure and concentration during food processing.
The research work in the project is planned to contribute to better understanding of the effects of food processing on
pesticide residues. Perfection of the analytical methodologies for detection and determination of pesticide residues at
extremely low concentrations allowed in baby foods will be one of the scientific contributions of the project. Existing
methods will be modified or new methods will be developed, distinguished by sufficient precision and reliability of
determination of residues at or below the concentration level of 0.01 mg/kg, required by the EU directives on baby food.
The identification and assessment of the critical points in the food technology processes will be a contribution to food
technology.
Project duration: from 01.02.2003 to 31.01.2006
F. Aktion Oesterreich-Slowakei: “Chemometrical Classification of Food and Biologically
Important Samples” (national coordinator: Ján Mocák).
Bilateral scientific project between (a) Technische Universitaet Graz, Austria, and (b) Slovak University of Technology,
Bratislava, Slovakia.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 30.11.2003
G. VEGA Project No 1/9253/02: Electrochemical DNA biosensors for the characterization of
interactions of the bound DNA, the determination of traces of compounds binding to DNA as
well as activators and inhibitors of damage to DNA (Ján Labuda)
New biosensors with a DNA layer of controlled properties attached to screen-printed carbon electrodes have been
prepared. Host-guest interactions for dsDNA and small molecules of selected chiral drugs and risk chemicals have been
characterized using several voltammetric techniques. DNA structural changes and deep degradation as a consequence
of chemical reactions of reactive oxygen radical species as well as DNA protection by selected antioxidants such as
flavonoids were investigated. New analytical procedures for the simple and fast determination of trace amounts of chiral
drugs were developed. The DNA biosensors were tested as simple and single-use sensors for the determination of DNA
damage as well as the evaluation of antioxidative capacity of plant extracts of food industry interest.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
H. Project 035/2001 (USA – SK) The HPLC Study of Enantioselective Separations Using
Molecular Modelling and Artificial Neural Networks on Macrocyclic Antibiotic Chiral Selectors
(Jozef Lehotay).
The objective of this research project is to create a comprehensive method capable of the prediction and optimization of
enantioselective separations achieved by the vancomycin chiral selector,VM-CS, in HPLC, CEC and CE. This will be
accomplished by:1) development of QSERRs to describe the retention and enantioselective separations achieved in
each chromatographic mode; 2) training ANN to select optimum format and conditions, i.e. to minimize k1’ and k2’ while
optimizing k2’/k1’, using the independent variables identified by the QSERR studies. A key element in the optimal use of
CSs is an understanding of the chiral recognition mechanisms responsible for the observed enantioselective separations.
Thus, a second objective is the use of the QSERRs and stopped-flow kinetic studies to construct descriptions of the chiral
recognition mechanisms operating in each mode and to correlate these results with molecular modelling studies. The aim
of these studies is a better understanding of the fundamental processes involved in chiral recognition.
Project duration: from 01.07.2002 to 01.07.2005

D. Bilateral project MŠ SR/DAAD No 5/2002, SRN: Investigation/detection of environmental


risk species by DNA-based biosensors (Ján Labuda).
The topic of the project is an investigation of interactions of species of environmental interest with deoxyribonucleic acid
(DNA). Toxic chemical species interact with living organism by various ways including association and follow-up structural
and chemical changes of biological material. Toxic species can be accumulated by DNA and initiate subtle or deep
damage to DNA. With respect to body aging and cancer processes, the changes of DNA due to its chemical interactions
are of great interest. We aspect to investigate metalorganic and metalloid species as well as metal complexes with
organic ligands which are able to intercalate into cavities between DNA bases pairs.

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9131/02 Application of microorganisms in food industry and
agriculture - biotechnological aspects (Ján Šajbidor)
Osmotolerant Saccharomyces cerevisiae important for the production of Tokay type wines were characterised. Their
metabolic activity in ethanol presence and high temperature was studied. Selected strains were immobilised on a new
type of hydrogele and it was successfully tested in large-scale pilot experiments. Alcaligenes xylosoxid and
Pseudomonas stutzeri useful bacteria for bioremediation technologies were tested. Valuable results were presented in
papers deals with relationship between structure of xenobiotics and their biodegradability. Experiments with Nocardia
species, the strain applicable in food industry as tartaric acid producer continued. Activity of fumarase in our producer
Dipodascus magnusii - enzyme for malic acid production by fermentation of sugar medium - have been approximately ten
times higher in comparison with earlier published data. We suppose application of this solution in industrial production of
malic acid like as former mentioned result. New types of biosensors based on electrochemistry or microcalorimetry
principles for monitoring of ethanol production from sucrose, glucose, lactose or biotransformation of glycerol to
dihydroxyacetone was published in scientific journals. Individual part of our research is overproduction of secondary
metabolites for food industry and pharmacy. New trends in fortification of cereals with essential fatty acids via solid-state
fermentations (for human nutrition or animal feed) were published. Very interesting result were obtained during the study
of lipogenesis regulation in filamentous fungi.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004

B. VEGA Project No 1/0067/03 Immobilized technologies: Implementation of new


immobilization techniques/technologies into plant fermentation and biotransformation
and their industrial applications (Ernest Šturdík)
One of the main aims of the project has been to test the selected variety of hydrogels for cell immobilization by
techniques of entrapment and encapsulation. These should be applied in fermentation technologies applicable in
industrial praxis, mainly in production of ethanol from whey or starch hydrolysates or for production of low- or non-
alcoholic beer. Yeast cells were used when immobilized in hydrogels (alginate, pectate, carrageenan) and tested in
fermentation processes under batch, semi-continuous and continuous conditions regarding to study effect of
immobilization on biological part as well as on transport and stability parameters. Electrochemical and microcalorimetric
biosensors have been constructed and successfully applied to monitor the processes mainly of ethanol fermentation as
well as on glycerol biotransformation.

Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005


C. VEGA Project No 1/9130/02 Biotechnological aspects of classical and alternative
fermented beverages production (Daniela Šmogrovičová)
The aim of the project is an improvement of classical beverages fermentation productivity - beer (bottom fermented and
special), production of different categories of wine (still, petillant, sparcling and wines "under veil") and production of
fermented beverages with lowered content of alcohol but the traditional character and taste. An increase in gravity results
in higher metabolic activity and increased ethanol production, but an effect of osmotic pressure and toxicity of produced
ethanol affected yeast viability. Since immobilised cells show various modifications in physiology and metabolic activity,
biochemical composition and morphology, as well, an application of immobilised yeast can improve their ability to ferment
concentrated substrates in dependence on carrier and technique used for immobilisation and protect the yeast cells
against osmotic and ethanolic stress. Immobilisation also influence yeast by metabolites co-production and consequently
flavour and character of fermented beverage. Integration of up-to-date knowledge about yeast properties and metabolism
should result into elucidation of ethanol tolerance mechanism, improvement of fermentation and production of alternative
beverages.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
D. National project 2003 SP 27/028 0E 02/028 0E 02 Quality, safety and functionality of
primary food resources (Milan Čertík)
The project is coordinated by Research Institute of Plant Production where some tasks of the project are carried out in
our Faculty. Objectives of these tasks are focused on a) Enhancement of nutritional value of various types of cereals by
polyunsaturated fatty acids, b) Evaluation and selection of primarily food resources and preparation of functional food with
preventive-medical properties, c) Study of genotype dependence on lipid profile in oil seeds, d) Identification of essential
fatty acids donors in cereals.

Project duration: from 22.10.2003 to 31.12.2005


E. National project 2003 SP 27/028 0E 01/028 0E 01 Quality, safety and functionality of
primary food resources (Michal Rosenberg, Milan Čertík)
The project is coordinated by Research Institute of Food where one of the task is carried out in our Department. The task
is aimed on preparation of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) from microorganisms. The first step is focused on finding of an
effective method for isolation and purification of CLA and on optimizing of suitable analytical method based on gas
chromatography for determination CLA content in isolated lipids.

Project duration: from 1.5.2003 to 31.12.2005

V. CURRENT EDUCATION PROJECTS


A. CEEPUS H-158 Green Network in Central Europe (Daniela Šmogrovičová).
The network relays mainly on the institutional and personal contacts that were established in a previous CEEPUS
network (H-0115). The main objective of this network was to emphasise and strengthen the ecological approach in
university education in the fields of horticulture and food science. Continuing this activity in a considerably renewed and
extended frame, the present collaboration program focuses on three connecting components of the quality of life: the
safety, quality and health aspects of horticultural and food production, landscape ecology and meliorization as well as
management of ecological conflicts with the tools of landscape architecture.

Project duration: from 01.09.2002 to 31.08.2005

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VTP Project No 2/9012/21 Preparates for biological protection of plants on Trichoderma
fungus basis (Ľudovít Varečka)
The aim of the project is elaboration of effective technology/technologies for preparation of myceliar specimens of fungus
Trichoderma suitable for biological protection of plants:
a) by submerged cultivation of fungus on defined cultivation media (for specimens containing conidia, mycelia and
elicitating enzymes)
b) by surface cultivation on defined media respectively on waste substrates from food industry (conidia and mycelia).
c) Proposal of Trichoderma specimens adaptation into the forms convenient for different kinds of application (conidia
suspensions, granules, mixtures)
Project duration: from 1.1.2001 to 31.12.2003
B. VEGA Project No 1/0109/03 Transport processes in filamentous fungi and their adaptative
mechanisms (Ľudovít Varečka)
In the project devoted to study the transport processes in filamentous fungi several aspects of transport and physiology
were studied.
In Trichoderma viride the process of chloride transport was studied by means of 36Cl radionuclide. It was found
that chloride anions enter the vegetative mycelia in a saturatable, pH- and temperature-dependent manner with selectivity
for chlorides and bromides. Further properties of transport suggest that chloride anions are transported by a specific and
electrically silent transport protein. In Penicillium simplicissimum the process of citrate transport into the vegetative
mycelia has been described and the conditions were found which led to the induction of novel citrate uptake system
driven by protonmotive force. Its role in the citrate metabolism is being currently analysed.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005
C. VEGA Project No 2/3188/23 Characterisation of basal transport of Ca2+ in non-excitable
cells (Ľudovít Varečka)
The main goal of the project is to prove or disprove the existence of the carrier in mediating the inward basal passive
Ca2+ transport and to find out whether this process proceeds using and electrogenic or electroneutral mechanism.
Further goals of the project is to find out information about factors which determine the magnitude of the basal Ca2+
influx, particularly, to find out whether it responds to the immediate conditions, or it is predetermined by (genetic)
mechanisms.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005
D. Bilateral Cooperation Austria-Slovakia - Membrane transport of organic acids in
filamentous fungi (Ľudovít Varečka)
This project is a continuation and expansion of our previous collaboration, where we investigated citrate uptake in P.
simplicissimum. Additionally, this priject is carried out in colleboration with the Austrian Science Fund Project P 15491
("Energetics of citrate transport through the plasma membrane of Penicillium simplicissimum. A study using plasma
membrane vesicles").

DEPARTMENT OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY

The aims of this proposal are:


1.) To study the induction of high affinity uptake systems for pyruvate, citrate, 2-oxoglutarate and succinate in
Trichoderma viride, P. simplicissimum, Beauveria brongniartii and Aspergillus nidulans.
2.) To improve and validate the measurement of the plasma membrane potential using di-S-C3(3) or di-S-C3(5) in T.
viride, P.simplicissimum, B. brongniartii and A. nidulans.
3.) To measure the PMF using method above and a method to determine the proton gradient.
4.) To fing out if the induction of these uptake systems is accompanied by a change in the proton motive force and by an
increased expression on the plasma membrane H+-ATPase
Project duration: from 01.06.2003 to 31.5.2004
E. VEGA Project No 1/9247/02 New coordinating compounds of zinc, their preparation, study
of physico-chemical properties and their biological activity (Daniela Hudecová)
The main goal of this project is the preparation of new coordinating compounds of zinc binding the molecules of ligands
with predicted biological activity with emphasis on the study of their physico-chemical properties (spectroscopic and
thermic properties, structure and stability in solutions) and their biological activity. In the frame of project is selected wide
scale of complexes of zinc from the reason of their perspective using in the pharmacy, food and cosmetic industry.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9141/02 Superionic conducting oxide glass and glass-crystal
composite materials containig copper cations (Miroslav Jamnický)
Preparation of mixed-halide glasses in the systems CuI – CuBr –Cu2O – P2O5 and CuI – CuBr –Cu2O – (P2O5 +
MoO3) with the same structure of the oxide network, the same content of dopping salts (CuI + CuBr) but with the variable
content of cuprous halides (the study of “mixed anion effect”). Determination of the structure of main structural units in the
systems under study and characterization of their thermal, electrical and acoustical properties. Determination of
correlations among composition, structure of oxide glass network, acoustical and electrical properties of the glasses
prepared under study.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
B. VEGA Project No 1/0245/03 Effect of seeding additives on the phase and microstructure
envolvement during hydration of sulfoaluminate cements (Ján Majling)
The hydration in a model of sulfoaluminate belite cement consisting of C2S, C4A3S, CS, C minerals was deeply explored
in the term of chemical reactions. A computational mean has been developed to define the trajectory exploration of the
stable conode corresponding to ettringite and gehlenite hydrate. The result of computational method has showed that
C2S-C4A3S- CS- C system can be divided into two fields C2AS- C2S- C4A3S- CS and C2S-C4A3S-CS-C separated by
a singular point of C2S-C4A3S-CS. According to theoretical computation, hydration reactions in each field as well as in
singular point have to lead to the formation of two stable crystallohydrates: gehlenite hydrate and ettringite.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005
C. Institutional project of FCHFT SUT No 191/03 Preparation of Al2O3 ceramics from
nanosize articles (Vladimír Kovár)
Stabilization of colloidal particles in suspension and thickness of solvatation layers are important parameters for
preparation of ceramics by colloidal processes. Effect of various additives on alpha Al2O3 ceramics preparation was
investigated. Suspension were concentrated by pressure filtration and by isostatic membrane pressing. Further these
technique of ceramics preparation will be examined.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. Institutional project 215/03 Modeling of nonstationary industrial production processes
(Milan Bafrnec)
The aim of the project is the development of physical and mathematical models of industrial production processes, in
which forming of materials, heat transfer and chemical reaction in solid phase occur. These processes are nonstationary
and mainly proceed in equipment of rubber and plastic industries. For the achievement of the above mentioned goal,

44
DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING

methods and computer programs for the solution of the models derived must be elaborated and further methods and
apparatuses should be developed for the determination of quantities describing termodynamic and heat-transfer
properties of plastic materials, elastomers, and composite materials produced from them.

Project duration: from 1.1.2003 to 31.12.2005


B. VEGA Project No 1/0063/03, Pollutants separation from fluid mixtures (Daniel Bobok)
Measurement of adsorption equilibrium data of pollutants on carbon adsorbents. Investigation of the resistance against
mass transfer in solid phase pores. Modeling of adsorption separation in a fixed bed of adsorbent. Experimental
estimation of extraction properties of pure solvents, prediction and verification of properties of mixed solvents, particularly
aimed at extraction of BTX aromatics. Modeling and calculation of emissions of volatile organic compounds released
from waste-water treatment plants.

Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005


C. VEGA Project No 1/0064/03, Mechanism of coal particle combustion in low oxygen
concentration atmosphere (Jozef Markoš)
The project is devoted to the investigation of combustion of a single coal particle (representing the smallest unit of an
industrial combustor) under conditions of low oxygen concentration and high concentration of carbon dioxide. The
microstructure properties of the combusted particle will be investigated and the influence of its change during combustion
on the mechanism and kinetics of the process will be studied. A mathematical model of the combusted particle, involving
all partial processes inside the particle will be developed and compared with experimental data. Model parameters will be
determined and optimal performance conditions will be proposed with the aim to minimize the emission of carbon
monoxide.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005


D. VEGA Project No 1/0066/03 Designing and optimalisation of bubble column reactors
(Vladimír Báleš)
The aim of the project is to study the use of mixed bubble column reactors (bubble columns, airlift reactors) for
progressive food technologies. By monitoring fermentation process and transformation of glucose to gluconic acid at
growth and non-growth conditions, the influence of biomass concentration on the hydrodynamic regime of the reactor
and oxygen transfer through interfacial area will be studied. By developing a mathematical model for the non- steady
state conditions involving reaction kinetics, gas hold up dynamics and oxygen transfer, the progress of bubble column
reactors scale-up will be proposed.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005


E. FP 5: PRISM: Grant G1RT – CT –2001 – 05029, Process industries safety management –
thematic network on human factors (Ľudovít Jelemenský)

Project duration: from 2002 to 2004
F. VEGA Project No 1/8112/01 Integrated system for the safety analysis of chemical process
and loss prevention ((Ľudovít Jelemenský)
The aim of the project is a further development of an integreated simulation program for safety analysis, which was
developed by our research group within the framework of the foregoing project. An extension of the integrated program is
suggested. This will be based on a detailed model of the process, which takes into account nonlinear dynamics and
uncertainity. For the prediction of feasible disasters and problems occuring in a plant the attention should be focused on
the assessment of causes and consequences of danger due to the existence of multiple steady states and unsteady
failures following from nonlinear dynamics.

Project duration: from 2001 to 2003

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Poject No 1/0061/03 Study of the oxidation in chemical processing of wood
through new methods of separation and analysis (Svetozár Katuščák).
The elimination of chlorine in bleaching processes and its substitution by hydrogen peroxide, various peroxidic
compounds in combination with oxygen, ozone and alkali extraction were studied. The most perspective oxidation agents
studied in this project next to oxygen, ozone and hydrogen peroxide are peroxomonosulfuric acid and peracetic acid.
Very good results for delignification efficiency, brightness and strength properties of pulp were obtained with combination
two stage oxygen delignification and next ozone stage.The reaction products were identified by electroforetic analysis,
HPLC and FTIR methods.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2003 to 31. 12. 2005

B. VEGA Project No 1/8100/01 Interactions of nonprocess components under pulping


conditions (Vlasta Lužáková).
An analytical procedure convenient for the isolation, fractionation and identification of wood extractive lipophilics as a
significant pitch formation precursor in pulping and papermaking has been developed. The solvent extractions, SPE as
well as GC-MS have been employed for this purpose. The procedure enables to follow interactions of the lipophilics and
pitch control agents in pulp fibre suspensions. An original set of the three pitch formation precursors originated from wood
has been formulated. The twelve dominant domestic woods pulped in Slovakia have been analysed from this aspect. The
knowledge obtained enables the technological pitch problem decreasing by exclusion of problematic woods from
industrial treatment or by convenient mixture of treated woods.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2001 to 31. 12. 2003

C. VEGA Project No 2/3161/23 Methodology of preparation of new cyclodextrin


derivatives with ion-exchanging groups (Igor Šurina).
New derivatives of b-cyclodextrin are prepared by selective introduction of ion-exchanging groups. The point of the
project was the preparation of mono-derivatives through tosylation, subsequently modified with quaternary ammonium
group. From the epoxy-compound amino-derivative are prepared and quaternized. The prepared mono-derivatives with
specifically bonded quaternary ammonium groups are modified with carboxymethyl groups. The derivatives are tested as
stationary phases for gas chromatography.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2003 to 31. 12. 2005

D. APVT Project No 99-007302 Coated ink jet papers (Štefan Šutý).


The project is realized in cooperation with Pulp and Paper Research Institute in Bratislava. Project research is focused
on coated ink jet papers, which as a new generation of paper industry specialties with excellent properties are
characterised by high added value. The impact of the physicochemical and structural properties on the interaction
between ink and coating are studied. Laboratory research of surface finish and coating of base paper will be done by
means of laboratory size press, coater and supercalender. The methods on the coating base paper properties evaluation,
coating composition and its components as well as ink jet paper quality will be worked out.
Project duration: from 01. 07. 2002 to 30. 06. 2005

E. Project No 2003 SP 260280C03 Production of new pulp and paper products from
wood of lower quality - Effect of fibrous web structure and fibre properties on transfer
and qualitative parameters of paper (Štefan Šutý).
The project is realized in cooperation with Pulp and Paper Research Institute in Bratislava. The research in this project is
focused on the description of transfer and quality parameters of the paper and board using the physical and mechanical
characterization of fibres and structural elements of fibre web. The transfer parameters are initial strength and dewatering
of wet paper web. The structure of fibre web will be described by anisotrophy of paper, orientation of the fibres,internal
strength of the paper, its porosity, distribution of the pores and formations of the paper. The covalence and bending
stiffness together with structural components will be used for the prediction of tensile parameters of the materials for
corrugated boards.It is being assumed using of research results in development of graphic papers with high ratio of
hardwood pulp, magazine papers e.t.c.
Project duration: from 01. 07. 2003 to 31. 12. 2005

F. Project No 2003 č. 661/2003 Preservation, Stabilization and Conservation of


Traditional Information Supports in the Slovak Republic (Svetozár Katuščák)
This project covers program of saving, stabilization and conservation of traditional holders of information (books, archival
documents etc.). Big portion of cultural heritage stored in historical books and archival documents is endangered with

destructive impacts of abiotic and biotic factors. This can cause irretrievable loss of cultural heritage of Slovak Republic.
Solving of this problem is divided into two time steps. First includes years 2003 - 2005 and its subject covers basic
research. Except of this, second step will also include applied research and development.
Project duration: from 01.10. 2003 to 31.10. 2005

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS

A. VEGA Project No. 2/2049/22 Penetration of Xenobiotics across Skin (Katarína Bauerová, ÚEF
SAV ratislava); Department part: Penetration of Xenobiotics across Skin (Vasil Koprda)
Evaluation of kinetics of transdermal permeation of ionic species and effects of physico-chemical factors on this process
were studied. Using some radionuclides of corrosion and fission products, namely 137Cs, and 60Co ions , the effect of
valency and the concentration of ions on permeation velocity across the intact, and splitted skin of biologic animal models
were studied. Using radioactively labeled substances the effects of solvent type (Transcutol) and structural type of
chemical penetration enhancers (Azone), on barrier function of skin was investigated. The permeation across the skin of
new drugs (onchomycotics Terbinafine and some oxygen scavengers were studied. The new biological models of 5
and/or 9 days rat skin were studied and snake shed skin was used for standardisation of transdermal permeation
membrane. Effect of Cs+ and Co2+ concentration on their permeation rate through different skin models was evaluated.
A row of experiments were aimed to reveal the transmembrane behaviour of radionuclide 137Cs+ and 60Co2+ across
the different artificial skin substitutes constructed in the FCHFT.
Project duration: from 1.1.2002 to 31.12.2004
B. Part of the VEGA project No. 1/8909/01Syntheses directed towards novel structural well
defined pi-conjugated heterocyclic compounds and their oligomers (Gabriel Čík)
Poly(3-dodecylthiophene), with different amounts of head-to-head configuration defects, was characterized by UV-VIS, H-
NMR, photoluminescence, and Raman spectra. The heat-induced conformational sample changes were studied by EPR.
For the study of these changes, a spin-probe technique was used. From the EPR spin-probe spectra rotational
correlation times and order parameters were calculated.
Degradation of 4-chlorophenol by reactive oxygen species was studied, the latter being generated by photo-assisted
reactions of thiophene oligomers, synthesized in channels of the Na-ZSM-5 zeolite. The photoreaction was carried out in
an aqueous suspension of photocatalyst, irradiated with visible light. The spin-trapping method was used to detect the
generated OH radicals. The main products of the photodecompsition of 4-chlorophenol were found to be phenol,
hydroquinone and maleic acid.
Project duration: from 01.01.2001 to 31.01.2003
C. Project in cooperation with the Ministry of Environment of the Slovak Republic, No.
527/2003/II. emediation technologies of PCB. (Gabriel Čík)

Project duration: from 01.12.2003 to 15.06.2004
D. Institutional Project No. 155/03 The Study of Sorption and Immobilisation of Radionuclides
from Nuclear Power Plant Cycle by Natural Adsorbers (Pavel Dillinger)
The determination of sorption capacity of natural and chemically modified natural zeolites towards some cations was
studied by static radioexchange method, AAS method, liquid scintillation counting method (LSC) and gamma
spectroscopy . It was studied the sorption of Sr(II), Pm(III) and Cs and Co from mixture of radionuclides. Radionuclides
Sr-90, Pm-147, Cs-137 and Co-60 were used as radiotracers. The structure, sorption and desorption properties of
natural and chemically modified zeolites and the new types of natural and chemically modified sorbents - alginite,
diatomite, precinal HMS were studied. The inluence of individual cations and their chemical forms, pH, temperature and
competitive cations (K, Ca, Fe) on the sorption and desorption was studied as well. The sorption and desorption
characteristics of these materials were compared with syntetic zeolite -Zeolon. We demonstrated that the sorption
capacity of natural and chemically modified sorbents depends not only on these materials but also on the chemical
properties of studied solutions (chemical spetation), higher temperature and pH above 7. The time dependence of
permeation of 147-Pm(III) from aqueous solution was estabilished by the animal skin model and the age dependence of
Pm permeation through the skin was examined. The skin from 5-day-old rats was found to represent the optimum animal
model to study trasepidermal permeation of ions. The skin from 9-day-old rats was selected to study transfollicular
permeation of ions. Radon and its short-lived decay products have been simultaneously monitored at the height 1,5m
above the ground during various periods of a year. It was analysed an influence of meteorogical conditions on activity
concentrations of Rn-222. The use of wet oxydation catalysis in industry was studied. The derivates of difenylamine in
waste waters were degradated by wet catalytic oxidation.
Project duration: from 01.01.2001 to 31.12.2003

IV. URRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9133/02 Development, optimising and control of new food products with
the aim to increase the food quality using biological active substances and modern
technologies (Alexander Dandár)
Contamination level in extractor during saccharose extraction from sweet cossets was analysed. The content of
substances in thick juice caused the incrustation in evaporator was modified by SUCAZUR biocide.
The progress was made in analysis of cabbage juice during spontaneous and artificial managed fermentation.
The content of lysine in rolls was increased about 1/3 by using of suitable additives.
Significant results were obtained in the study of natural colorants with antioxidative properties on the quality of selected
raw materials of plant origin. Original results were gained in utilization of natural antioxidants in their application in
selected foods of plant and animal origin.
Microbial quality of spices used without heat treatment was verified. An effect of lactic acid addition applied on the surface
of butcher’s meat with the aim to extend its shelf life was evaluated.
Effect of chickpea and amaranth fractions on rheological properties of the dough was studied. Optimal addition of these
fractions with the aim to improve the quality of bred was analysed.

Project duration: from 2002 to 2004


B. VEGA Project No 1/9132/02 Processes and factors having the influence on durability and
safety of foods and on household chemistry (Š.Schmidt)
Principles of predictive microbiology in the evaluation of hygienic safety of food were used. Mathematical modelling of
growth of hygienically relevant microorganisms in model systems, in food and in emulsion systems was worked out.
Influence of biogenic elements, heavy metals and other biologically active substances on food quality with regard to
properties of relevant raw materials, intermediates and final products were studied. Modification of food properties in fresh
and preserved state was analysed.

DEPARTMENT OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Correlation of microbial and physical - chemical parameters of quality of bovine and caprine milks was worked out.
Influence of external and internal environmental determinants on micro flora and sensory properties during storage of
durable cereal products was studied.
Isolation, modification, characterisation of plant antioxidants and their use for stabilisation of selected types of fats and oils
were realized.
Antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activities of isolates from frequent seasoning as well as employment of plant
extractive substances in dairy products to stabilize their quality and durability were tested.
Fast and selective methods for determination of indicators of over processing and for evaluation of food quality factors
and the verification of methods for evaluation of effectiveness and safety of stabilizers and other permitted substances for
cosmetic products according to legislation of Slovak Republic and European Community were developed.

Project duration: from 2002 to 2004


C. VEGA Project No 1/0102/03 Probiotic bacteria and non-traditional raw materials in
production of functional foods with aim to increase their nutritive parameters (J.Karovičová)
Project is concerned to the study of application of Lactobacillus bacteria as well as Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts in
production of functional foods on the base of different type of lactic fermented vegetable juices. In production there were
studied the following substances: organic acids, especially lactic, acetic and citric acids, as well as biogenic amine
presence, (histamine, tyramine, kadaverine and putrescine ). Samples were analysed by capillary isotachophoresis with
following validation of the method.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/8108/01 Adaptive and Intelligent Control Strategies for Processes of
Chemical/Biochemical Technology (Alojz Mészáros)
The scientific project is focused on development of new strategies of adaptive, robust and intelligent control with respect to potential
applications to the processes of chemical/biochemical technology. The main goal is to make further progress in the field of artificial
neural network (ANN) based identification and control. New adaptive, predictive and robust control structures are designed and
tested by both, computer simulations and laboratory control experiments. An original adaptive tuning of discrete PID controller is
proposed. Control strategy based on adaptive lambda-tracking policy is also proposed for linear systems with higher relative degree
as well as with varying sampling rate for systems with discretely measured outputs. The new methods introduced are tested on
computer control of laboratory distillation column and laboratory biochemical reactor. Results achieved will be offered for industrial
application in collaboration with the ProCS Ltd. company.

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9252/02 Magnetoactive Coordination Compounds (Roman Boča).
A rational design of the zero-field splitting parameter in metal complexes lies at the centre of focus. An extensive series of the Ni(II)
complexes with a variable coordination sphere (unidentate, bidentate and polydentate ligands) has been synthesized and the
recorded magnetic response (the temperature variation of the isothermal magnetic susceptibility and the field dependence of the
magnetization) has been analyzed by the developed software. At this stage the sign and magnitude of the zero-field splitting
parameter (the axial magnetic anisotropy parameter) can be predicted. New program that handles the complete space spanning by
the crystal-field multiplets and Zeeman levels has been outlined. At present the project concentrates to the understanding of the
magnetic anisotropy in binuclear complexes. See: Chem. Phys. Lett. 373 (2003) 402-410.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004
B. DAAD Project No 6/2002 New Crystal, Molecular, Electronic and Magnetic Structures with Functional
Properties (Roman Boča).
Molecule-based magnets containing Ni(II) and Co(II) centers have been synthesized and their magnetism was studied extensively
by the contemporary battle of the magneto-chemical-physical hardware. See: Inorg. Chem. 42 (2003) 6965-6967.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2003 to 31. 12. 2004

C. MVTS Project No NEM/Slov/DAAD/CH New Magnetic Materials (Roman Boča).


Spin crossover phenomenon was studied by six experimental techniques: magnetic susceptibility measurement, variable-
temperature powder diffraction, variable-temperature EXAFS measurements, variable-temperature Moessbauer spectroscopy,
variable-temperature infrared spectroscopy and the differential scanning calorimetry. New theoretical insight into the
cooperativeness in the solid state has been proposed based upon the concept of the chemical hardness. See: Chem. Phys. 293
(2003) 375-395.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004

D. MVTS Project No NEM/Slov/DFG/CH Molecular Electronic Multistability (Roman Boča).


Multinuclear coordination compounds of iron(III) with cyanide bridges were synthesized where several close-lying electronic states
could be stabilized. The effect of the magnetic field to the induced stabilization is investigated. See: Solid State Phenom. 90 (2003)
147-152.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2007

E. APVT Project No 20-009902 Low-Dimensional Magnetic Materials (Roman Boča).


Molecular (0D) and chain (1D) coordination compounds were synthesized and their magnetic properties recorded and analyzed.
See: Inorg. Chem. 42 (2003) 5801-5803.
Project duration: from 01. 08. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004

F. VEGA Project No 1/9251/02 Preparation and study of novel non-steroid coordination antiflogistics
and antituberculotics (Milan Melník).
Synthesis of novel coordination compounds disposing properties of coordination chemotherapeutics which can be applied in
human and veterinary medicine represents one of the most perspective fields of bioinorganic chemistry. The synthesis and study of
novel nonsteroid coordination antiflogistics and antituberculotics are consistent with these properties. Thus, a search for new types
of chemotherapeutics is a great challenge for bioinorganic chemistry. The biocomplexes of copper and iron with various ligands,
namely with derivatives of nicotine, salicylic and propionic acids as well as with fenamates are the object of our study in connection

with the search for coordination antiflogistics. The biocomplexes of copper and magnesium with other group of ligands, namely
derivatives of 4-oxoquinolinate are considered to have properties of the potential antituberculotics are also the object of our study.
A specific theoretical and experimental procedure characterising the construction of coordination polymers was elaborated. Crystal
structure determination of some copper and magnesium complexes contributed to the optimisation of favourable conditions for
reactions of ligands forming new compounds in the coordination sphere.
The basic factors influencing the relation between the wavelength of irradiation and the photoredox efficiency of iron complexes
were formulated. It was found that by photolysis of copper complexes generated hydroxyl radical in solutions participates in
photodegradation of some pollutants. The results can be applied to improve ecology.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004

V. CURRENT EDUCATION PROJECTS


A. Project No 301/02 Picking out of talented students and their motivation in new conditions of social
development with respect to the needs of the Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology of the Slovak
Technical University (Anton Sirota).
A special questionnaire has been elaborated for research of students' motivation in their choice to study chemistry and their
evaluation of the study organisation and the level at the Faculty of Chemical and Food Technology.
The questionnaire has been applied to a sample of 178 students of the first course of the Faculty. Their responses have been
evaluated and the results obtained are prepared for publishing in a special journal. The results have been compared with those
obtained with a similar questionnaire in 1984. The results show that evaluation of students in 2003 differ in many significant aspects
from those obtained in the year 1984. It will probably be necessary to adapt the pedagogical process at the Faculty as well as
methods how to gain students for study of chemistry to a new situation in the secondary schools education as well as in social life.
The similar questionnaire has been elaborated and adapted to the needs of the Faculty of Sciences of the Comenius University in
Bratislava. It is supposed to be applied in 2004.
The members of the research team organised a special seminar for secondary school teachers in August 2003 with the aim to
enhance the quality of chemistry teaching at the schools. Two members of the research team presented their lectures at the
seminar.
Two members of the research team are chairman and vice-chairman in the club Socrates. The club activates such activities which
are in favour of selected talented students of the Faculty.
Some members of the research team were involved in a preparation of the national team of the best four secondary school pupils
who attended the 35th International Chemistry Olympiad in Greece and were awarded with 2 silver and 2 bronze medals.
The members of the research team published 18 papers in journals (in Slovak), presented three lectures at the conferences and
two of them published a text book for secondary school pupils on nomenclature of inorganic substances.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9425/02 Preparation and Properties of Composite and Alloy Layers on Metal
Substrates (Marta Chovancová)
Corrosion resistance of teflon sealed anodized aluminium was investigated by standard test and impedance spectroscopy. PTFE
dip coating on anodized aluminium belongs to the new way of material preparation. Sealing quality and compactness of the
prepared materials is the best one for PTFE sealing after anodic oxidation in the phosphoric acid electrolyte.
The combined two steps sealing method of anodic oxide coatings on aluminium has been designed. This sealing method is able to
substitute classical hydrothermal sealing.
The preparation of electrochemical composite coatings with nickel matrix and Si dispersion particles has been studied. The
influence of electrode position on the silicon content in the coatings has been tested. The participation of solid Cu and A2O3
powder particles in the transfer of charge through the heterogeneous system consisting of an electrolyte and both conducting and
non-conducting powder particles was studied by means of EIS.
The corrosion resistance and mechanical properties of Ni – W alloy coatings electrodeposited from the water solutions has been
investigated by the standard tests and anodic polarisation curves.
Basic physical and chemical features of insulation layers of pipeline materials were verified by the laboratory tests. The samples
were exposed to QUV-tester in order to define the influence of UV radiation on degradation of insulation materials. Insulation
features were assessed on the base of cathodic polarisation curves. The test of endurance against the loss of cohesion was
evaluated according to the standard.
Corrosion under stress of steel pipe samples in modelled environment of sand and clay has been laboratory tested. For each soil,
there were performed four variants of steel sample exposition. The influence oíf cathode protection on corrosion of monitored steel
samples is discussed.
Project duration: from January 2002 to December 2004
B. VEGA Project No 1/9426/02 Thermodynamics and kinetics of the chemical and electrochemical
reactions in the electrolyte at the phase boundary aluminium- melt (Pavel Fellner)
Impurities are introduced to the electrolyte for aluminium smelting with raw materials or they originate from the reactions of
construction materials of the electrolytic cells and/or electrodes with the electrolyte.
They are responsible for contamination of aluminium, but they can also participate in the reactions responsible for the decrease of
current efficiency or they can escape from the cell and to pollute environment. Importance of research of impurities will be stressed
when the inert anodes (which are now tested in an industrial trial) are introduced.
Aim of the project is investigation of the reactions of aluminium dissolved in cryolite-based melts with impurities like sulphates using
electrochemical methods (linear and cyclic voltametry, chronopotentiometry, impedance methods). There is no generally accepted
theory explaining behavior of impurities in the aluminium electrolyte and they role in decreasing of current efficiency. Aim of the
project is to supply experimental data for a new theory of the back reactions of dissolved aluminium.
The electrolyte will consist of the molten system NaF - AlF3. We will start to investigate the reactions in molten NaF at the
temperature of 1000 °C. The addition of AlF3 will make it possible to decrease the temperature to the range of 700 – 750 °C.
In the second stage (1.5 years from beginning of the project) we plan to investigate behavior of the impurities originating from
dissolution (corrosion) of the inert anodes.
The proposed project is demanding because of high reactivity of aluminium dissolved in the melt at the temperatures of 750 – 1050
°C. Investigation of fast electrochemical reactions requires suitable experimental technique. The proposed research team is skilled
enough for the work with molten salts. We have the electrochemical analyzer Autolab which is suitable for the electrochemical
measurements in molten salts.

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/0085/03 Mathematical vague information processing and its applications (Anna
Kolesárová)
Quantification of uncertainty related to vagueness of studied objects. Extension of the theory of aggregation operators, new
constructions methods for aggregation operators, in particular, construction of stable aggregation operators, clarifying their structure
and uniqueness. Ordinal aggregation operators for aggregation of data of qualitative nature. The study of possible applications of
different types of aggregation operators in inference process in fuzzy logic and construction of new operators for this purpose.

- 131 -
DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

Fuzzy preference modelling and decision making. Mixed fuzzy-stochastic models.


Project duration: from (01/01/2003 to 31/12/2005
B. EU Project COST ACTION 274/2 : Theory and Applications of Relational Structures as Knowledge
Instruments (TARSKI) (Kolesárová Anna)
The main objective of the Action COST 274 is to advance the understanding and use of relational structures in applicable object
domains. The researchers of FCHFT STU are involved in the working group WG3 for the development of non-invasive scaling
methods for the prediction of relational data and comparing, and possibly, integrating, a nominal scaling approach with numerical
methods such as fuzzy relations, etc. The aim is also the improvement of methods and procedures for gaining information from
everyday relational situations such as, e.g., preference models.
Project duration: from 06/2001 to 05/2005

C. VEGA Project No 1/8107/01 Computational simulations with multiagent systems (Jiří Pospíchal)
The goal of the project is a study of multiagent systems using evolutionary algorithms and neural networks in order to observe a
possible emergence of a coordinated communication, cooperation and social structures. For a study of emergence of a
coordinated communication the agents are endowed with a cognitive organ, which is represented by a simple recurrent neural
network. An agent has its randomly chosen internal state and with its cognitive organ it will code it and send as a message to
another agent. This agent will decode the received message by its cognitive organ to an internal state representation. Emergence
of cooperation and development of social structures between agents is studied by a prisoners dilemma game. Each agent of a
population is represented by a strategy (coded by a binary vector), which will determine its interaction with other agents. Evolution
of strategies is simulated by simple evolutionary algorithms. The evolutionary stability of emerging strategies is studied in detail.
Project duration: from 01/01/2001 to 31/12/2003

D. VEGA Project No 1/0062/03 Artificial chemistry and molecular evolution (Vladimír Kvasnička)
Biotic and abiotic molecular systems with kinetics determined by Eigen's replicator system are studied by methods of artificial
chemistry. Molecules are represented by strings of tokens over a finite alphabet. These molecules are capable of a physical
process called "folding" (an analogy with biomacromolecules RNA). Each molecule is evaluated by a fitness on the basis of its
particular folding. Molecules are placed in a chemical-reaction system, where they take part in a reproduction process (with
probabilities proportional to their fitness) consisting in a simple copying accompanied by mutations. Such a simple reaction system
corresponds to biomacromolecular systems that are capable of Darwinian evolution on molecular level. A goal of evolution
specified in this way is an emergency of strings with required folding (required phenotype or a goal phenotype). The present in-silico
approach offers a conceptual and notional machinery for a deeper theoretical interpretation and description of molecular Darwinian
evolution.
Project duration: from 01/01/2003 to 31/12/2005

V. CURRENT EDUCATION PROJECTS


A. KEGA Project No 3./100603 Mathematics on-line: An internet course (Dobrakovová Jana/ Kolesárová
Anna)
The aim of the project is to propose and create the framework for a dynamical mathematical electronic education using XML
documents, with respect to new pedagogical methods. The electronic net course will be addressed to the students of all faculties at
STU in the first year of their study.
Project duration: from 01/01/2003 to 31/12/2005

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. Governmental project 2003 SP 27/028 0E 02/028 0E 02 Quality, safety and functionality of primary
food resources“ (Eva Hybenová)
The project is coordinated by Research Institute of Plant Production where some tasks of the project are carried out in our Faculty.
Objectives of these tasks are focused on a) Enhancement of nutritional value of various types of cereals by polyunsaturated fatty
acids, b) Evaluation and selection of primary food resources and preparation of functional foods with preventive-medical properties,
c) Study of genotype dependance on lipid profile in oil seeds, d) Identification of essential fatty acids donors in cereals.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005


B. COMmon dataBASE on microbial responses to food environments generated in EU (in cooperation
with IFR; contact person of STU Bratislava - Ľubomír Valík)
Important advances to develop such a database structure were made by the Institute of Food Research (IFR, Norwich, UK) in the
90’s. The IFR database format is utilised in a project, called ComBase, being jointly run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture -
Agricultural Research Service (USDA/ARS), Institute of Food Research (IFR) and Food Standard Agency of the UK (FSA).
ComBase will store the raw data of the USDA Pathogen Modeling Programme, which is one of the largest databases of its kind.
FSA is supporting ComBase by releasing data and computer programs developed at IFR and funded by the FSA. The project has
attracted the interest of many universities and industrial partners. Some of them (first of all University of Complutense Madrid,
UCM) has already submitted large amount of suitable data to ComBase.

Project duration: from 2002 to 2004


C. VEGA Project No 1/9133/02 Development, optimising and control of new food products with the aim
to increase the food quality using biological active substances and modern technologies (Alexander
Dandár)
Research activity was focused on selection, analysis and utilization of antioxidants of natural sources namely of plant origin, applied
in edible plant oil. Antioxidative activity of ethanol extracts from oil seeds /corn, amaranth, soy, rapeseed, and cultivated flax/ as well
as from legumes /pea, lens, bean, chickpea, French bean/ was studied.Positive antioxidant effects on lipid stability were
established e.g. in the samples of heat-treated pork with lens. Antioxidative activity of ethanol extracts of some spices as green and
black tee and coffee drinks. Volatile compounds of silica and the extracts from selected herbs and tees as well as its sensory
properties were analysed too.Chemical parameters of sensory properties of fermented natural juices /cabbage, celery and beetroot/
were evaluated. Effect of NaCl content and an initial pH value as well as the effect of bacteria on biogenic amines and organic acids
production were observed in evaluated juice samples. Decrease of vitamins B in heat-treated confectionery samples within an
optimazing of technology was studied. Soy flavonoids / genistein, daidzein and their glukozides / in term of their antioxidative
properties were studied.The influence of polyphosphate content on sensory and physico-chemical properties in selected meat
products was observed. Nutritive parameters as well as the additives, mainly amino acids composition were analysed. An effect of
lactic acid addition applied on the surface of butcher`s meat with the aim to extend its shelf life was evaluated.

Project duration: from 2002 to 2004


D. Development of Good Hygiene Practices in the Slovak Food Industry; Development of the standard
approach for codes to hygiene practice (in cooperation with STOAS Netherlands and Ministry of
Agriculture of the SR; national expert - Ľubomír Valík)
The Netherlands and Slovak task force will develop a standard approach for the development, implementation and verification of
codes to hygiene practice. The standard approach must be based on best practices from the Netherlands and/or from other EU
sources. The standard approach must include all principles of HACCP according to Codex Alimentarius, the documentation on the
hazard and risk analyses for future reference and a general structure according which to develop common codes to hygiene
practice. The standard approach must be approved by the official inspection institutes (task international consultants (I.C.): initially a
workshop should be held to train task force members and to develop a common understanding of (content and budget is task of
I.C., organisation is task of T.L.); the background of food safety including legislation, hygiene, food safety hazards, historical and
future food safety developments in the international food market; the principles of HACCP and the approach to risk analyses; the
development, implementation and verification of HACCP-systems and hygiene codes; the programs, methods and material to train
the workforce on good hygiene practice in relation to HACCP systems and hygiene codes. A course was be made on the
developed approach, methods and techniques to be able to train project teams, which undertake to develop specific codes. This
course will include the development-, the implementation- and the verification phase. Subjects were:- legislation; food safety
hazards determination; risk assessment; control measures; documentation; validation; verification and registration (task of I.C.).

Project duration: from 2003 to 2004


E. Study of the influence environmental factors on behaviour of technological and health relevant
microflora in foods and food production areas (in cooperation with Institute of Food research
Bratislava - Ľubomír Valík).
Principles of predictive microbiology in the evaluation of hygienic safety of food were used. Mathematical modelling of growth of
hygienically relevant microorganisms in model systems, in food and in emulsion systems was worked out. Prediction of shelf-life
and dynamics of microbial deterioration of foods was studied. Influence of external and internal environmental determinants on food
micro flora.

V. CURRENT EDUCATION PROJECTS


A. Nutrition and health in training and education - V. Frank; M. Takácsová
Preparation of variable training and educational moduls for various groups. Preparation of conceptual framework and subjects for
whole-life education in nutrition, health and food safety in cooperation with the EAEA - European Association for the Education of
Adults (http://www.eaea.org/slovak/eaea.html) and Institute of whole-life education at Slovak University of Technology
(http://www.stuba.sk/svk1/icv/slovak.html). Establishing of the Educational centre STU in co-operation with College of Education of
the Trnava university. Development of programmes for pre-sschool and school nutrition recommendations.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005


B. Implementation of the BSP Food Safety Action (FSA) in cooperation with CIAA as a national expert -
Ľubomír Valík

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/0057/03 The Application of Stereoselective Cycloaddition, Cyclization and
Oxycarbonylation Reactions in the Total Syntheses of Natural Products and Its Analogues (Lubor
Fišera)
The syntheses of natural products and their analogues, especially polyhydroxylated derivatives of pyrrolidines, piperidines,
pyrrolizidines and indolizidines via asymmetric palladium(II)-catalyzed oxy-/amino-/amidocarbonylation of unsaturated polyols
and/or aminopolyols and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones. The study of the effect of substituent/Lewis acids to influence
diastereoselectivity of nitrone cycloaddition reactions. Modeling and synthesis of chiral palladium(II)-complexes for kinetic resolution

B. APVT Project No 20-010702 Synthesis of optically pure buildings blocks for syntheses of biologicaly
active natural compounds and their analogues as potential chemoterapeutics (Tibor Gracza)
Development and optimization of new synthetic ways - chiral pool approaches - in the syntheses of optically pure alkenitols derived
from cheap and commercially avaiable monosaccharides in laboratory grams and multigrams scale. Study of chemo-, regio- and
stereoselectivity of palladium(II)-catalyzed oxy-/amino-/amidocarbonylation and cyclization of unsaturated polyols and aminopolyols.
Evolution of asymmetric version of the transformations using chiral palladium(II)-complexes. The study of stereoselectivity of 1,3-
dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides and nitrones with chiral alkenes. The study of the effect of substituent/Lewis acids to influence
the diastereoselectivity of the cycloadditions. The new type of cross-coupling reaction with contributing neighbouring group and
finding of the reaction conditions for kinetic resolution of racemic polyols and aminopolyols.
Project duration: from 01.10.2002 to 30.09.2005
C. VEGA Project No 1/9249/02 Stereoselective syntheses, reactivity and properties of hydroxylated
indolizidines and substituted indolizines (Štefan Marchalín)
Basic research in the chemistry of heterocyclic compounds, in organic synthesis aiming at elucidation of structure of products and
of reaction mechanisms, as well as at search for novel synthetic procedures.The objective of this project is to develop new general
synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of diastereo- and enantiopure polyhydroxyindolizidines, dihydroindolizines and tricylic
heterocycles with 1,4-dihydropyridine ring. The project is divided in two parts. All parts of project are synergistically connected and
leverage each other. The first part explores new synthetic approach for the synthesis of chiral polyhydroxylated indolizidines starting
from enantiopure tetrahydrohetero[f]indolizinediones. The second part is based on our previous research in the chemistry of 1,4-
dihydropyridines and is focused in the utilization of easily obtainable 2-formyl-1,4-dihydropyridines for the preparation of new chiral
dihydroindolizines and tricylic heterocycles containing 1,4-dihydropyridine ring by means of diastereoselective intramolecular
cyclization reactions.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
D. VEGA Project No 1/0058/03 Benzazines and Their Condensed Analogues; Preparation, Properties
and Utilisation (Štefan Stankovský)
The objective of the proposed research project lies in preparation of novel condensed aromatic heterocycles – derivatives of

- 145 -
DEPARTMENT OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

benzazines mainly of the quinazoline and quinoline type fused with another ring containing O, S, N as heteroatoms. Special
attention will be paid to use of non-traditional precursors leading to desired skeletons carrying desired functionality, or such that
allow to preserve the original skeleton and introduce desired substituents. Such modifications are expected to streamline structures
of target compounds to achieve significant bioactivity, mainly antimicrobial, antifungal and cytostatic. Structural and spectral
characteristics of novel compounds will be studied, including the x-ray analysis and study of supramolecular parameters by
computational methods.
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005
E. VEGA Project No 1/1379/04 Syntheses directed towards novel heterocyclic compounds such that
show opto-electronic properties, specific bioactivity, and apoptosis (Daniel Végh)
Design of syntheses of novel compounds supported by modern trends gleaned from theoretical studies. Synthesis of novel
heterocyclic compounds from the furan, thiophene, pyrrole, imidazole, pyrazine, - and -pyrone series a modeling of their
biological activity. Study of controlled di- and trimerization of the prepared -conjugated heterocyclic compounds aiming at
preparation of molecular and supramolecular functional units and nano-structures. Modeling of supramolecular structures and
potential -conjugated antennae systems for molecular recognition and self-organization by theoretical calculations a combination
of building blocks. Utilization of perfluoroaromatics for molecular recognition. Structure modeling of compounds with cancerostatic
effects and those capable of initiating apoptosis.
Project duration: from 01.01.2004 to 31.12.2006

enantiomerically pure amino acids and their derivatives (Dušan Berkeš)
Conjugated addition of chiral amino derivatives on electron-deficient unsaturated carboxylic acids followed by crystallization-
induced dynamic resolution of primary adducts as key steps in a methodology of asymmetric transformation leading to pure
enantiomers. Also stereoselective transformations of prepared adducts, synthesis of optically pure hydroxyamino- and
diaminocarboxylic acids.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004
G. VEGA Project No 1/9254/02 Preparation, properties and reactivity of the nitrogen heterocycles with
fused ring containing O, S, Se or N atoms (Viktor Milata)
The preparation of new aromatic polyazaheterocycles on the basis of quinoline, quinazoline and benzoazoles with other fused
aromatic or saturated heterocycle containing O, S, Se or N, is the subject of this proposed project. In the first period of this project
the greatest attention will be aimed at the preparation of new precursors of the mentioned heterocycles. In the next part these
precursors of nitroquinazolines, nitrobenzimidazoles, nitroselenodiazoles, imidoylhalogenides, cyanoacetamides, quinazolones and
their thioanalogues will be used for the synthesis of the target compounds in the cyclization and cyclocondensation reactions.
Derivatisation of the newly synthetized heterocycles by incorporation of saccharide or other hydrophilic component, an increased
solubility of compounds in water and thus better biological application will be pursued. Attention will be given to physico-chemical
and spectral parameters, e.g. X-Ray analysis and supramolecular chemistry will be confronted with calculated models.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 31.12.2004

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9242/02 Ecofriendly options for the production of nitrogen compounds and their
precursors (Milan Hronec)
A simultaneous hydrogenation of nitro group and hydrogenation of chlorine in chloroanilines was studied over palladium catalysts
on resins and inorganic materials. Beta zeolites with defined acid strength and the type of Broensted and Lewis sites were
prepared and tested for condensation of aniline to diphenylamine. Metal phosphates were discovered as selective catalyst for gas-
phase oxidation of benzene to phenol. In the progress is the research of partial oxidation of methane to formaldehyde, selective
oxidation of cyclohexylamine to cyclohexanone oxime, oxidation of propylene to propylene oxide and synthesis of pyridine from
ethanol, formaldehyde and ammonia.
Project duration: from january 2002 to december 2004
B. VEGA Project No 1/9143/02 Zeolites as catalysts for fine chemicals intermediates ( Dusan Mravec,
Martin Bajus )
Tert-butylation of toluene: Preparation of shape-selective zeolite catalysts for alkylation of toluene by deactivation of outer surface
of basic zeolites. Study of tert-butylation of toluene in the liquid phase over basic and modified zeolite catalysts (H-MOR and H-
BEA).
Etherification of glycerol: Study of reaction conditions for oxygenates to fuels preparation by etherification of glycerol with tert-
butanol, isobutylene and C4 –fraction over different acid catalysts.
Project duration: from january 2003 to december 2004

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/9143/02 Catalytic and Thermic Conversion of Hydrocarbons from Crude oil
and Natural gas to Petrochemicals (Martin Bajus)
The subject of the scientific project is the study of kinetics and mechanism of catalytic and thermal conversions of hydrocarbons
from crude oil, natural gas and polymers with the orientation on copyrolysis of primary naphtha with polyethylene, polypropylene,
polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride to desired petrochemicals.
During the first period of the project we studied:
A. solubility of polymers )PE, PP, PVC, PST, PET) in aromatic diluent (xylenes) and in primary naphta
B. pyrolysis of individual polymers (PE, PP, PVC, PST, PET) in batch reactor
C. thermal decomposition of PE, PP and PS in the system PYRO-GC-MS
D. copyrolysis of primary naphtha with polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride in flow tubular reactor
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2002 to 31. 12. 2004
B. VEGA Project No 1/9144/02 The Modern Trends in Petroleum Treatment and in Petrochemistry
(Pavol Hudec)
The study of physical, physico-chemical and catalytic processes leading to the conversion of petroleum fractions, individual
hydrocarbons or natural gas to prepare components of modern and perspective reformulated fuels corresponding to the strict
ecologic and economic requirements. Examined topics join to the production of motor fuels in refinery-petrochemical complex
Slovnaft on the base of hydrocracking of heavy residues. Solved is influence of the composition on light and oxidizing stability and
low-temperature properties of motor fuels. In work, the possibilities of the improving the quality of the products by the modification of
classical hydrorefining catalyst by modified Y-type zeolites and by mesoporous molecular sieves of M41S type, and the
modification of fluid catalytic cracking catalyst by ZSM-5 zeolite additives will be studied, in direct connection with the composition of
industrial feeds in these processes.

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/0052/03 DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF COMPUTATIONAL METHODS
TO THE STUDY OF ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF MOLECULAR SYSTEMS (Stanislav Biskupič)
Within this research project, new theoretical treatments based on quantum-chemical principles are developed and then - with other
accessible techniques - used to obtain exact and detailed information on the structure and dynamics of selected molecular sytems.
Many-body perturbation and CC formalism of interaction energy evaluation (higher order contributions) has been elaborated and
applied to some van der Waals complexes that are important for chemical reactions in upper shells of the Earth atmosphere.
Systematic study of the factors causing unusual electronic structure of selected compounds with interesting physico-chemical
properties has been oriented to oligothiophenes, cyclophosphazenes, transition metal complexes in unusual oxidation states and
blue proteins model compounds.Vibration spectra of new push-pull olephines (as model compounds of pharmacotherapeutics)
have been calculated and interpreted.
Project duration: from 2003 to 2005
B. VEGA Project No 1/0053/03 SPECTROSCOPICAL ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURE AND REACTIVITY OF
FREE RADICALS AND TRANSITON METAL COMPLEXES IN CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND
PHOTOCHEMICAL SYSTEMS (Vlasta Brezová)
Research project is focused on the investigation of structure and reactivity of radical intermediates and metal complexes in the
chemical, electrochemical, photochemical, and biological systems with the predominant application of spectroscopic methods
(EPR, UV/VIS/NIR spectroscopy) and electrochemical techniques (voltammetry). The investigation is oriented especially on the
synthesis and physicochemical characterization of new organic materials for LEDs (Light Emitting Devices) systems, and on the
study of magnetic, redox and spectroscopic properties of metal complexes. The primary radical intermediates of the photoinduced
electron transfer in heterogeneous titanium dioxide systems, as well as reactive species produced upon the photoexcitation of
drugs are investigated. Additionally, the attention is paid to research of antioxidant properties of foods and beverages (tea, wine,
beer) with the main aim to select foods with the positive health effect. Concerning the experimental methods, the systematical
development of combined spectroelectrochemical and spectrophotochemical techniques continued, as well as further analysis of
experimental error sources in quantitative EPR spectroscopy is performed.
Project duration: from 01/2003 to 12/2005
C. VEGA Project No 1/0054/03 MATERIALS – physico-chemical methods of their study (Peter
Šimon)
The method for the evaluation of kinetic parameters of induction periods has been elaborated. The method enables to estimate the
length of nonisothermal induction periods in the processes such as rubber curing, oxidation in condensed phase, freezing of
undercooled liquids, oxidation stability of drugs and foods, etc. The method is expected to be applied in the quality management
and risk assessment in technological processes.
Theory of model-free isoconversional kinetics is developed and a new incremental isoconversional method has been elaborated.
The method enables modeling the processes without deeper insight into their mechanism.
Degradation and stabilisation of PVC is studied both experimentally and theoretically. The attention is paid to the non-hazardous
stabiliser mixtures based on tocoferyl acetate.
Project duration: from 2003 to 2005
D. VEGA Project No 1/9255/03 ELECTRON STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS IN SOLID
PHASE (Jozef Kožíšek)
The ambition of the solved project is the integrated study of the selected systems in solid state with possible applications in
understanding the mechanisms of enzymatic reactions in biological systems. In the experimental area the present possibilities of
measurements on the synchrotron equipments in the Europe (Hamburg, Grenoble) are utilized, as well as our collaboration with
TU-Darmstadt. The composition of investigators of this project was selected in such way that involves both theoretical (quantum-
mechanical) as well as available experimental methods (X-ray analysis, EPR spectroscopy, DSC measurements). So it will be
possible to produce the complex results including many aspects of the studied systems. We focus our attention on the study of
electronic structure and properties of the model systems of blue proteins. For this purpose we have synthesized monocrystals of
the compounds [Cu(bite)(BF4)] and [Cu(bite)(BF4)2] which very well reproduce the active centre of these interesting biological

catalysers. The electron density of compounds with various characteristic types of coordination sphere are studied experimentally
and results are correlated with the physico-chemical properties of these and similar compounds. These measurements will be
correlated also with ab-initio quantum-chemical calculations in solid state.
Another object of experimental study is the electron density of stereospecific catalyzers on the base of Ni complexes with
Schiff bases, which are reaction centers for the assymetric synthesis of various aminoacids and their analogs.
Project duration: from 2002 to 2004
E. Project APVT-20-014702 Research and development of biogenic ecological fuels and lubricants from
domestic renewable resources (Ján Cvengroš)
The research project is focused on the research, development, production and application of esters of higher fatty acids as
ecological fuels for diesel engines based on the renewable domestic raw materials with complex utilisation of the by-products. The
main results in 2003 are as follows:
1. Oxidation of methyl esters based on rapeseed oil and methyl esters based on frying oils used as the alternative diesel fuels,
unstabilized and stabilized by some antioxidants has been studied by differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetry (DTA/TG)
under non-isothermal conditions for various heating rates and by Rancimat test under isothermal conditions. Low oxidation stability
of the undistilled methyl esters was stated. The induction period increased expressively by the addition of low quantities of selected
antioxidants. Especially high stabilising effect was reached for pyrogallol. The results obtained by the both methods are compared
and the differences are accounted for by the oxygen diffusion within the samples. The DTA/TG method is suitable for the evaluation
of the oxidation stability of the studied esters.
2. The importance of the alternative fuels based on the biomass as reliable domestic and renewable resource is great. The
environmental, energetic and economical effects connected with the production and the utilization of biofuels in the transportation
were evaluated. The analysis of the biofuels taxation in the tax system of Slovakia was carried out.
3. Glycerol is a valuable by-product used in the production of methyl esters. Its production can positively influence economical
balance of the production of methyl esters. The method of refinement of glycerol in vacuum evaporator with wiped film was tested
and the parameters of the distilled glycerol were stated. Distilled glycerol meets the requirements of the industrial glycerol according
to the standard.
Project duration: from 2002 to 2005
F. VEGA Project No 1/8110/01 Evaporation performance and separation efficiency at molecular
distillation (Ján Cvengroš)
The research project is focused on the theory of molecular distillation, the development of the short-path evaporators with wiped
film and on the applications of molecular distillation. The main results in 2003 are as follows:
1. In the model study, selected parameters with the effect on the distillation output and composition of outlet streams from the
molecular evaporator were investigated in the laminar and turbulent regimes in the film, depending on the evaporator´s liquid load
and temperature. In the case of a turbulent film a higher portion of a feed is evaporated at a lower content of the more volatile
component in the distillate. There are only small differences in the separation efficiency at both studied regimes. Re-evaporation
from the condenser has a small effect on the separation efficiency. The decrease of the separation efficiency is greater in the case
of splashing. The qualitative agreement between experimental results and results from the model shows that the model describes
well the phenomena that occur within the distillation space of the molecular evaporator.
2. The study of the film wiping with the wiping element having profiled surface shows that there are three different liquid flow
regimes on the evaporating cylinder. The conditions for the formation of these regimes and their consequences are discussed.
Optimum conditions for distillation can be reached at increased retention of liquid on the evaporator. The increased residence time
is a positive factor, which makes efficient evaporation at a lower evaporating temperature.
3. Some technically interesting applications of molecular evaporators were developed (regeneration of used mineral oil, final
treatment of methyl esters as alternative diesel fuels, purification of the phytosterols from vegetable oils and others).
Project duration: from 2001 to 2003
G. Project APVT-20-005702 Thermooxidation and photooxidation processes in chemical and biological
systems and their influence on the quality of life (Stanislav Biskupič)
The project is oriented towards spectroscopic (EPR, UV/VIS) and thermoanalytical (DSC) characterization of the processes
occuring in thermal and photooxidative degradation of food, drugs and newly synthesized pharmaceutical precursors. A great
attention is paid to spectroscopic study of antioxidative properties of foods with the aim of selecting the group of beneficial functional
food and to monitor and improve their quality. Elaboration of time-saving procedures for the determonation of stability of food and
drugs (DSC, EPR). Study of photoinitiated radical transformations of drugs, interpretation of the results by quantum-chemical
calculations with the aim of elucidating the mechanisms of their effects and targeted improvement of their quality.
Project duration: from 06/2002 to 06/2005
H. VEGA Project No 1/9256/02 The role of trace metals and light in camptothecin – serum albumin
interactions (NMR and EPR studies) (M. Valko)
The anticancer drug camptothecin (CPT) is a plant alkaloid that has recently gained approval for clinical trials as a treatment of
gastric, rectum, and bladder tumors. The drug exists in two forms, a lactone form which is biologically active and a carboxylate form
which is not. It has been shown that in the presence of human serum albumin (HSA) the drug converts to the biologically inactive
form and therefore the liposomal stabilization of the lactone form of the drug is of primary importance. In this connection the high

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY

resolution NMR study is planned to elucidate the stabilization of the lactone form of the drug and the nature of the binding mode
with HSA. It is generally believed that camptothecin activity occurs through a free radical mechanism. We also believe, that the role
of trace metals is in particular important. Our preliminary results show that upon irradiation (365 nm light) copper(II)-CPT complex
generates free radicals which may cause DNA damage to cancer cells. The aim of the proposed project is to further investigate a
radical mechanism of the action of the drug.
Project duration: from 2002 to 2004

IV. CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS


A. VEGA Project No 1/0059/03, Study of Structure and Properties of Crosslinked Polymers (Gabriela
Kyselá).
The project is focused on the curing of polymers and copolymers during their preparation in the presence of multifunctional
monomers and using the suitable post-polymerization reactions, too. The curing of elastomers is interesting in the application of
non-harmful sulfur curing systems, based on the phosphoric accelerators and their combinations with thiazoles, respectively. The
experiments are predominantly oriented on the researching of the optimal composition of accelerate systems, as well as, on the
connection of the network structure of crosslinked materials and their age resistance and the level of the retaining of original
physical-mechanical properties, too. Also, the crosslinking reactions are studied in the course of two stage seeded semi-continuous
starved emulsion polymerization of styrene and butylacrylate in the presence of N-methylol acrylamide. Partially crosslinked latexes
with core-shell particles are used for formulation of ecological paints. The influence of polymerization strategy and crosslinking
reaction on the film - forming properties of modified dispersions are investigated..
Project duration: from 01.01.2003 to 31.12.2005
B. VEGA Project No 1/0283/03, New Types Blends and Composites Materials Containing Biodegradable
Polymers and Fillers (Ivan Hudec).
The project is aimed on the investigation of polymer blends and composite materials based on biodegradable polymers and
particulate fillers. The main research and experimental efforts are focused on chemical and physical modification of thermoplastic,
elastomeric and crosslinked multy-phase polymer materials by changing morphological structure and interphase interactions on
polymer/polymer and polymer/filler interface. The selection of the polymer matrix and modification methods are oriented on the new
achievements which enables to reveal relations between composition, structure and properties of studied multiphase polymer
blends and composites.
Project duration: from 01. 01. 2003 to 31. 12. 2005

C. GER Project No 17/2001, Modification of Reinforcing Materials for Rubber Articles (Ivan Hudec).
Development of new technologies and procedures for surface modification of materials for rubber articles, using applications of
plasma-chemical methods. Preparation of new types of biodegradable textile reinforcing materials based on polyvinylalcohol, their
chemical and physical modification with the aim to obtain advantageneous physical-mechanical properties and required adhesion
to rubber. Preparation of new rubber blends for warp applications in combination with textile and steel cords, including the
application of new and advanced types of elastomers.
Project duration: from 01.01.2002 to 30.11.2004

D. WHEYPOL - Project No GRD 2-2000-30385, Dairy Industry Waste as Source for Sustainable Polymeric
Material Production (Dušan Bakoš).
The aim of the European procect is the preparation of biodegradable polyhydroxybuthylene from whey (waste from milk industry)
by biotechnological way. The cooperation of STU in this project is focused on investigation of blending PHB with other
biodegradable polymers (e.g. polyethylene oxide), and investigation of various modes of compatibilization, as well as investigating
the possibility of blending PHB with thermoplastic starch. Determination of ultimate properties of prepared blends with PHB matrix is
aimed especially to improved toughness of the material.
Project duration: from 01.12.2001 to 30.11.2004

E. Project No 2-3-5 CHN, New Biomaterials Based on Chitosan Complexes (Dušan Bakoš).
Target of the project is complexation of natural polymers to set-up a new tissue-engineered multi-functional composite products
that are successful in three-dimensional tissue regeneration as being biologically active, biodegradable, heterogenous, anisotropic
structures. The research activity will be based on highly innovative technological processes and biopolymers (chitosan, hyaluronan
and starch). Special nano-technologies for natural polysacharide-based polymers will be used to optimise the materials

A. Development of NMR techniques for the structure determination of modular molecules (Tibor Liptaj)
The main goals of the project are:
Development of the NMR techniques which provide long-range structural information on the studied molecules. These methods
relay on measurement and interpretation of residual dipolar coupling constants which appear in high resolution spectra because of
partial orientation of moleculesT
the main results are:
a/ development of the methods for the precise determination of the value of coupling constants
b/ determination of the dipolar 1H-1H and 1H-13C coupling constants in the model oligosaccharide.
c/ structural and dynamic interpretation of the experimental dipolar couplings
Project duration: from 2002 to 2004
B. High Resolution Solution Structures of Carbohydrates by NMR Spectroscopy. (NATO

NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution solution structure, dipolar couplings, liquid crystalline media, carbohydrates, monosaccharide,
oligosaccharide, conformation, ab initio calculations
Determination of high-resolution solution structures of monosaccharides. The aim is achieved by the analysis of small residual
dipolar coupling constants measured in dilute liquid crystalline media. Different types of dipolar coupling constants, such as nDH,H,,
1DCH,, 2DCH,, and 1DCC, are measured using new NMR techniques recently developed in our laboratories. The accuracy and
very high precision of these techniques will allow us to use NMR approaches developed previously for the analysis of molecular
structures in nematic liquid crystals. For flexible monosaccharides, conformation of the glycosidic linkage will be investigated.
Experimental solution structures will be compared with their solid state equivalents known from diffraction studies. The developed
methodology for high-resolution structure determination of small molecules by NMR spectroscopy in dilute liquid crystalline media
will be applicable to a variety of small molecules, not only carbohydrates.

Project duration: from 2003 to 2005


C. State program of reseach and science development, Project: Establishment of the "top-class"
laboratory for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (Tibor Liptajˇ)
Establishment of national NMR laboratory consistoing of the group of 5 specialized NMR labs with the aim to initiate the exploitation
and development of NMR methods in the broad area of natural science research and education.
Project duration: from 2003 to 2010
