This diploma thesis is focused on the determination of distribution a surfactant at phase separation in polymer-surfactant system. Sodium hyaluronate of three molecular weights was chosen as a polymer, CTAB was used as a surfactant. The experiments were performed in an environment of 0,15 M NaCl. The measurement of the CTAB concentration in samples was based on the formation of coloured complexes of CTAB and picric acid in chloroform. UV-VIS spectroscopy was used for the detection of these complexes. The content of CTAB was determined in four gels of different composition (2% Hya + 200 mM CTAB, 2 % Hya + 50 mM CTAB, 0,5 % Hya + 200 mM CTAB, 0,5 % Hya + 50 mM CTAB). All gels were gradually washed five times with 0,15 M NaCl. The content of CTAB was determined for newly prepared gels and for gels after 2 and 4 months since the preparation. Initial concentrations of CTAB and hyaluronan have greater influence on the distribution of CTAB after phase separation, than the molecular weight of hyaluronan. The content of CTAB in newly prepared gels and after 4 months since preparation is very similar and demonstrates the stability of the system.
