The aim of this thesis was development and initial testing of new porous electrochemical detector for flow-through arrangements, especially for flow injection analysis (FIA) and liquid chromatography. One of the most advantageous properties of the detector is simple renewal of working material and thus its suitability for determination of strongly passivating substances. Glassy carbon microbeads and copper microparticles were tested as a working material within this study. Initially, basic electrochemical properties of the glassy carbon-based detector were examined by FIA using hydroquinone and potassium ferrocyanide as model substances. For both model substances high degree of conversion was achieved (around 100 %), and thus it was concluded that glassy carbon-based detector can be considered as coulometric. Hereafter, practical application of the carbon-based detector are presented on five electrochemically active substances closely related to the human medicine and pharmacy - thymol, tyrosine, sulfamethizole and vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) simultaneously determinined with homovanillic acid (HVA). Complexity of instrumental arrangement of flow-through methods had been increasing consecutively up to the HPLC determination with gradient programme. It was proved that the carbon-based detector is...
