Assessment of diffusion coefficient
Mikeš, Petr ; Schimmel, Jiří (referee) ; Míča, Ivan (advisor)
Most acoustic measurements and parameters provided by a manufacturer of acoustic elements, which are offering additional solutions to room acoustics as well as acoustic construction works, are mainly limited to the parameters associated with absorption of individual elements. Until now, these diffusional elements have been neglected. Diffusi- onal panels are used to e.g. eliminate direct reflection of sound waves to the listener or reflection of sound waves concentrated at one point. Combination of absorptive acoustic panels and diffusion elements results in a space that is customised to the submitter’s needs.

Effect of humic acids on mobility of ionic compounds
Herzog, Milan ; Weidlich,, Tomáš (referee) ; Sedláček, Petr (advisor)
The content of this diploma thesis is study of interactions between humic acids and model probes (such as organic dyes and ions of heavy metals) by the simple diffusion experiments in diffusion cell. The main aim was to desctibe the influence of charge of different diffusion sonds (solved substances) on interactions with humic acids imobilized in model gel phase. As a appropriete model probe was chosen copper ions (as a representation of heavy metals) and organic dyes (methylene blue, rhodamine, fluorescein and chicago blue). Experimental results could be used to improve knowledge based on natural barier properties of humic acids and to inovate simple diffusion laboratory techniques for characterization of reaktivity of biopolymers in general.

Reactivity-mapping studies on biopolymers in hydrogel forms
Smilek, Jiří ; Kislinger, Jiří (referee) ; Sedláček, Petr (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on the study of interactions between biopolymers and model probes in a hydrogel media utilizing diffusion processes. The main aim was to test and to optimize selected combination of diffusion methods (diffusion cells and unsteady diffusion) in study of interactions between biopolymers and organic dyes. Anionic (humic acids) and cationic (chitosan) representatives of biopolymers were utilized and methylene blue and methylene orange were used as a reactivity probe in the case of humic acids and chitosan, respectively. Another appreciable part of the work is represented by in-depth characterization of applied biopolymers and hydrogel samples by a wide range of analytical and physico-chemical methods (rheometry, UV-VIS, FT-IR etc.). Besides particular experimental results on studied systems, the diploma thesis provides both theoretical and practical background for subsequent applications of the innovative and full-automated method for reactivity mapping of biopolymers.
