The influence of water activity on respiration behaviour of women after breast ablation
Černá, Tereza ; Čechovská, Irena (advisor) ; Břečková, Gabriela (referee)
Title: The influence of water activity on respiration behaviour of women after breast ablation. Aim: We aim to design and verify a programme of water exercises for women after breast ablation which would have a positive influence on their health. In our pedagogical experiment we want to discover the effect of breathing exercises in water environment on respiration capacity and strength of respiration muscles (inspiration and expiration muscles). Methods: Sociological research was used in order to find suitable probands. The examination of functions of respiration muscles was used in order to evaluate strength of respiration muscles. We measured strength of respiration muscles (inspiration PI max and expiration muscles PE max). Spirometry testing, volume-time curve and a flow-volume loop, set values for inspiration (VCinsp) and expiration (VCexp). The examination was carried out in Krajska zdravotni a.s, Usti nad Labem at the department of Functional Diagnostic. Results were evaluated by statistic program STATIS TICA. We used describing statistics, categorization, data analysis, t-tests, Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney testing. Conclusion: Water activity related to breast exercises had a positive influence on values of PI max, VC insp a VC exp which demonstrate results of Wilcoxon test. Some differences...

Automatic control for factory building heating
Prudek, Miroslav ; Voldán, Jiří (referee) ; Němec, Zdeněk (advisor)
The graduation thesis is focused on the automatic operating of heating of the production hall of První brněnská strojírnaVelká Bíteš, a.s. The thesis consists of an analysis of present state of the heating technology and solution of the general conception of the automatic operating of the heating. Integrated part of the conception is heat-up of the supply water and drain off of the condensation water from the air heating units. Outcome of this graduation thesis is a design of the algorithm for operating of the regulated system. Remote supervision and control of the regulated system shall be ensured by the visualization setting, which shall be implemented into the station of dispatching centre. The accuracy of the design of the part of regulated system shall be validated as a design of PID regulator with the use of “Matlab” program and it´s module “Simulink”. To set up parameters of the PID regulator, “Ziegler-Nichols” method shall be applied. The objective pay-off period of investments for regulation controlling system is figured out as a part of this thesis as well.

Highly sensitive analysis of chlorophenols and sulfonamides in waters by electrophoretic focusion on inverse electromigration dispersion gradient with ESI-MS detection
Malá, Zdeňka ; Gebauer, Petr ; Boček, Petr
This work presents a new methodology for high-sensitivity analyses by capillary\nelectrophoresis (CE) with electrospray-ionization mass spectrometric (ESI-MS)\ndetection, based on electrophoretic focusing on an inverse electromigration dispersion\n(EMD) gradient. The technique is based on a robust electrolyte system providing a\ngradient of required properties, suitable for routine analyses of trace amounts of weak\nacids with pKa values between approx. 6.5 and 9. Examples analyses of several\nchlorophenols and sulfonamides are presented, with LODs around 3x10-9 M for spiked\ndrinking water without any sample pretreatment.

Capillary electrophoresis with contactless conductivity detection for rapid determination of meldonium in urine
Šlampová, Andrea ; Kubáň, Pavel
A simple, rapid and cheap capillary electrophoresis-capacitively coupled contactless\nconductivity detection (CE-C4D) method for determination of meldonium (MEL) in\nurine samples was developed. Sample pretreatment was minimized to dilution of urine\nsamples with DI water and MEL was determined by CE-C4D in background electrolyte\nconsisting of 2 M acetic acid (pH 2.3) in ng mL−1 to mg mL−1 concentration range.\nSample-to-sample analysis time was less than 4 min, limit of detection and\nquantification was 0.015 and 0.05 μg mL−1, respectively, and the method showed\nexcellent linearity (r2 ≥ 0.9998), recovery (97.6–99.9%) and intraday as well as interday\nrepeatability (RSD ≤ 4.7%).

Assessment of the efficiency of wastewater treatment plant using ecotoxicity tests
Urminská, Barbora ; Vávrová, Milada (referee) ; Zlámalová Gargošová, Helena (advisor)
The possibilities of environmental pollution control are increasing and more advanced wastewater treatment methods are being emphasized, as well as more specific control of contaminants presence in treated waters. That is why it becomes relevant to perform not only chemical analysis but also ecotoxicological bioassays as the means of evaluation of biological effects caused by wastewater discharges to ecosystems. No wastewater treatment plant is able to treat the water perfectly – it can only decrease the pollution level to an acceptable value. Therefore it is important to find out if the treatment process is sufficient to provide a satisfactory decrease of ecotoxicity and also what effects to the organisms in recipient will be caused by wastewater discharges. The thesis is focused on the evaluation of wastewater ecotoxicity. In the experimental part of the thesis, wastewater samples were collected at four wastewater treatment plants in the Czech Republic. At one of them also the sludge samples were taken. The aim was to evaluate the efficiency of wastewater treatment by selected ecotoxicological bioassays. The results have shown that the efficiency of wastewater treatment plants with secondary treatment is sufficient to reduce acute toxic effects to the minimum. Average toxicity removal was over 80 % at three of four evaluated wastewater treatment plants. At the fourth WWTP it was 41 %, however, at this WWTP high efficiency of treatment is not necessary.

Kupčík, Roman ; Skoták, Aleš (referee) ; Haluza, Miloslav (advisor)
The main subject of the diploma thesis „Contradiction analysis of small water power Ostravice“ is solution of reduced output of small water power plant on the river Ostravice near the town Vratimov. Power plant equippment is axial flow Kaplans turbine RA – 3,5 – 0 1000 with runner diametr 1000 mm. Low output is caused by draft tube. New draft tube is designed in this masters thesis. For hydraulic layout was used CFD software Fluent. The aim of this work is finding of optimal shape which leads to increasing of power from current 30 kW to projected 55 kW.
