Degradation possibilities of synthetic macromolecular materials centred on biodegradations
Zichová, Miroslava ; Ondruška, Vladimír (referee) ; Babák, Libor (advisor)
This work deals with the degradation possibilities of synthetic macromolecular materials. Mechanical, chemical and chemo-physical degradation is described, but the work is focused on biodegradation. Polymer biodegradation is its decomposition by microorganisms. The aim of the work is to show the advantages of biodegradation and to arrange the knowledge acquired about the biodegradation of particular macromolecular materials. There is resumed the information about the degradation of polyurethanes as an exception among synthetic polymers, which are mostly resistant to biodegradation. Attention is also paid to biodegradable polymers.

Regulation of production of enriched biomass and lipidic substances in carotenogenic yeasts.
Němcová, Andrea ; Ondruška, Vladimír (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
Carotenoids belong to the most abundant classes of natural pigments with important biological functions. In last years intensive studies focused on biotechnological production of carotenoids by suitable microorganisms were done. Presented work was realized as a comparative study of three yeast strains: Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodotorula rubra a Sporobolomyces roseus. These strains were cultivated in different media with several waste substrates (potato extract, whey) as nutrition sources. Additionally, strains were exposed to some types of exogenous stress. All strains were able to use tested waste substrates as nutrition sources. Most of strains exhibited increased carotenoid production, in several conditions accompanied by high biomass formation. As the best producer of enriched biomass yeast strain Rhodotorula glutinis CCY 20-2-26 cultivated on medium with addition of lyophilized whey (9 g/l of biomass enriched by 2 mg/g of beta-carotene) and/or under mild salt stress.
