The use of ion exchanges for preconcentration of platinum group metals
Sýkora, Jiří ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Komendová, Renata (advisor)
The aim of this thesis is the elaboration of a detailed literature review on the use of ion exchangers for the preconcentration of platinum group metals. This work contains an actual literature review on this issue. In this work you will find information about the current occurrence of platinum metals in the environment, their impact on health, properties, resources and the use. There are also described ways of decomposition, extraction and use of ion exchangers. In the experimental part this thesis deals with optimization of ion exchangers and following application of real samples from the city of Brno.

Use of biomarkers for assessing environmental pollution by platinum group metals
Nedvědická, Lucie ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Komendová, Renata (advisor)
This diploma thesis in the theoretical part analyses the characteristic feature of individual platinum group elements, their toxicity, anthropogenic sources and the presence of platinum group elements in the environment of the Czech Republic. In addition, there are specified types of bioindicators focusing mainly on lichens, mosses and needles. There are described individual bioindication techniques and pre-treatment of samples for platinum metals determination in bioindicators. The subject of the experimental part is to verify the sorption efficiency and ability of platinum and palladium using the SPE method and to determine the actual platinum metal contamination in selected localities in the city of Brno. There was also the additionally subject to verify the sorption potential of selected bioindicators and determination of the environmental pollution by platinum metals using the bag technique. In the experimental part, the bioindicators of moss Pleurozium schreberi, lichen Xanthoria parietina, lichen Flavoparmelia caperata and needles Pinus nigra were used.

National Debt of the Czech Republic compared with selected states of the European Union
Řezáčová, Veronika ; Severová, Lucie (advisor) ; Spiesová, Daniela (referee)
This work is focused on the general issue of sovereign debt and consequently on the comparison between the various European Union countries and the Czech Republic.
The first part deals with the theory of sovereign debt, as general government debt has been incurred and what resources the government has to deal with sovereign debt. There are also described emit forms of sovereign debt in the Czech Republic and the total debt in this country.
Own research in the form of a questionnaire survey is presented in the secod part of this work, which includes both the actual exploration and evaluation. Constitutive part also compared the actual states of the European Union to the Czech Republic according to individual criteria.

Platinum group elements in waste and surface waters
Novotný, Matěj ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Komendová, Renata (advisor)
This assignment provides a detailed description of platinum metals, their occurrence in surface and waste water and their determination options. Currently, platinum metals are widely used in the automotive industry as a part of a catalyst, as well as in medicine and jewelery. Release of these metals in pure form and the form of oxides leads to their subsequent accumulation, which directly affects fauna and flora. Due to that, the living conditions and health status of some organisms are petting worse.

Thermal lens spectrometric detection of MRI contrast agents in the process of their photocatalytic degradation
Petruľák, Michal ; Řezáčová, Veronika (referee) ; Franko, Mladen (advisor)
Diplomová práce je zaměřena na studium degradace kontrastních látek pro magnetickou rezonanci. Tyto látky se dnes ve velké míře používají v oblastech s rozvinutým zdravotnictvím. Můžeme je najít v odtocích z čistíren odpadních vod, což svědčí o tom, že běžné stupně čištění odpadních vod nejsou dostatečně efektivní pro jejich odstranění. O degradaci kontrastních látek na bázi gadolinia je jen málo informací. Fotokatalytický rozklad za pomoci oxidu titaničitého a také ozonace vybrané kontrastní látky gadobutrolu, byl sledován pomocí měření celkového organického uhlíku, mikroskopie termálních čoček a spektrofotometrie.
