Thesis title: Comparison of height and jumper parameters for young girl volleyball players in 2002 - 2009 Thesis aim: Based on the results obtained in the test tournaments in 2002 - 2009 (Kafka's memorial) create order 15-best placed volleyball players, under-reach at strike jump with rozbehem(heat?). The results compare for each yer, according to the selected somatic assumptions (body height, the range from the floor stretched arms) and selected performance assumptions (net reach - absolute jump, reach at strikejump with heat). Method: For my thesis examination I have looked up and processed results of standardized volleyball tests. Each year these tests are applied to the players at the regional youth centre championships. Nowadays these tests are rather applied to selections of the best regional players. Concerning girl players it refers to ,,the Memorial of Milan Kafka". The testing is provided by the organizer in coordination with commissioned co-workers of youth committee and youth coordinator. For processing and evaluating of the acquired data I have used the following mathematical-statistic methods: arithmetic mean, variation range and decisive anomaly. Results: I have transformed the final tests results into transparent graphs through which you can see apparent differences between...

Hubálek, Tomáš ; Novotný, Čeněk (advisor) ; Pazlarová, Jarmila (referee) ; Malachová, Kateřina (referee)
2 2. Abstract The aim of this thesis is to identify the ecotoxicity of contaminated soil and water during bioremediation. Different test organisms were selected for the battery of ecotoxicity tests such as the bacterium Vibrio fischeri, the terrestrial plants Sinapis alba, Lactuca sativa, and Hordeum vulgare, the water plant Lemna minor, the earthworm Eisenia fetida, and the crustaceans Daphnia magna and Heterocypris incongruens. A comparison of individual biotests with various organisms and endpoints should demonstrate their suitability and sensitivity for the ecotoxicity evaluation of contaminated soil and water. The bioassays were used for the evaluation of the bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil, composting of PAH-contaminated soil and remediation of contaminated groundwater. The ecotoxicity of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil originating from a brownfield was evaluated during a 17-month biodegradation pilot test (experiment I). The initial concentration of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in the soil was 6380 μg.g-1 dry weight; the concentration of TPH in the soil decreased by 65.5 % after bioremediation. The highest toxicity was detected in the first period of bioremediation; however, certain toxic effects were detectable during the whole bioremediation process. The contact tests were the...

Lazařová, Klára ; Šnejdrová, Eva (advisor) ; Dittrich, Milan (referee)
Klára Lazařová Diploma thesis 2008 The aim of this work was the study of the fluconazol and terbinafine release from oligoester carriers branched with various concentration of either mannitol (3M, 5M, 8M) or dipentaerythritol (3D, 5D, 8D) and plasticized with 30 % triethyl citrate (TEC). Theoretical part is occupied with drug delivery systems and the conditions of the coupling of the macromolecules with the biological substrates. The 150,0 mg matrices composed of carrier, drug of 4% and plasticizer TEC of 30% were prepared. They were put to the static dissolution test using phosphate citrate buffer pH 5,0 at 37řC. The drug release was determined spectrophotometricaly at 261 nm for Fluconazole and 283 nm for Terbinafine. Fluconazole release was the fastest from carrier 5D. The carriers 5D and 8D released the drug during three stages, after burst effect was observed constant liberation followed slowing the process. The carriers branched using mannitol released the drug depending of the concentration of the mannitol.

Awareness of Canistherapy in Jindřichův Hradec
FRAŇKOVÁ, Zuzana
The bachelor thesis was written in order to survey the level of canistherapy awareness in Jindřichův Hradec. Canistherapy is based on interactions between a human and a dog. That is the reason why the author briefly touched the relationship history as well. Then she continues with the history of zootherapy and specifies terms used in the field of zootherapy. Next chapters clarify the zootherapy practising, i.e. what animals are used for this method, what techniques are applied and what ways is possible to exploit while practising the zootherapy. The chapter analyzing the organizations covering the zootherapy is important as well. In following chapter the author tracks the zootherapy in legislation wraps up important laws related to the work with animals. Next part of the bachelor thesis is dedicated to the canistherapy. It explains the term evolution, introduces the history of canistherapy and its development in the Czech Republic. She focuses here on the conditions of canistherapy both from the dog?s side as well as from the therapist, the facility and the client?s point of view. The author opens practical part of the bachelor thesis with its goal, describes methods and techniques of research. To realize the bachelor thesis research the author has chosen quantitative research and questioning. The outcome is elaborated in form of descriptive statistics and results of questionnaire inquiry is amended with diagrams for clarity. The research goal was to realize the extent of the canistherapy awareness amongst secondary schoolteachers in Jindřichův Hradec and employees (social workers and social services workers) of social services facilities and institutions in Jindřichův Hradec. Two hypothesis were established for the survey purposes. Hypothesis 1: Level of the canistherapy awareness is higher in case social services facilities workers to compare with secondary schoolteachers in Jindřichův Hradec. Hypothesis 2: Respondents with a dog in their possession are better informed than those without. To prove or disprove them, the hypothesis were tested by statistical significance test (T-test) and the result was composed of outcoming levels of significance. For the purposes of T-test zero hypothesis were established. H0 (1): Level of the canistherapy awareness is the same in case of social services facilities workers as well as in case of secondary schoolteachers in Jindřichův Hradec. H0 (2): Level of the canistherapy awareness is the same in case of respondents with own dog as well as those without. To each of thesis related question were prescribed points and each respondent has reached average score. This average score could prove or disprove T-test. Total amount of the questionnaire inquiry respondents was 100. 60 of them were secondary schoolteachers and 40 social services facilities workers. Results of the survey revealed that majority of respondents already had met the auxiliary method, though just at theoretical level, in their life. That is the reason for right answers of respondents to the key question, according the author, what the canistherapy was. Questionnaire included more the canistherapy related questions and as the results revealed, respondents are informed on the auxiliary method. Statistic calculation proved hypothesis, i.e. the social services facilities workers are better informed on the canistherapy than secondary schoolteachers and the respondents owning their own dog, or planning to have, are better informed as well than those without dog. It is necessary to point out that the difference between those groups of respondents is not substantial and majority of respondents provided right answers to the questionnaire questions. The author would recommend the social services facilities where the therapy is not applied to have possibility to get the information on the therapy and to assess possibility to include the canistherapy into their services offer.

Genus Haemophilus and laboratory examinations in medicine today
KADLECOVÁ, Jana
My bachelor´s thesis focuses on the most major pathogen of the genus named Haemophilus, and Haemophila influenzae. H. influenzae is an originator of more serious infections, mainly its type b, which is the most virulent organism, causing invasive diseases mainly with children and older people. It causes mainly meningitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In the theoretical part of my bachelor´s thesis I write about the genus Haemophilus and clinic significances of the most famous species which occur at present. The genus Haemophilus is an aerobic and a facultative aerobic gram that means it is a negative bacteria, which is characteristic for its arduous requests for accretion. I used some methods for the diagnosis. I used the following methods a test with growth factors, which is a common diagnostic method, which distinguishing Haemophilus according to their addiction to the growth factors. This method is financially very demanding and currently the mason being why its results are not so accurate. But thanks to a new technology a more modern method called MALDI TOF weight spektronomie (MS) was found, which is easier, quicker and more accurate than the first one. MALDI TOF enables a diagnosis of the most demanding pieces of bacteria, yeast and mushrooms. The MALDI TOF diagnosis is characterized by undisputed reliability and cost effectiveness. Lactam antibiotics, mainly antibiotics - co-amoxicilin and chloramfenikol are used as treatment methods against Heamophilus. Against serious infections can one protect themselves with a vaccination the Hib vaccination. In the practical part of my bachelor´s thesis I described some processes and laboratory diagnostics of the pathogen H. influenza by methods MALDI TOF MS and by the Test for growth factories in a microbiological laboratory named Synlab, czech s.r.o., in České Budějovice. The results of how frequently H. influenza occurred in the year 2013, were gained from of the previously mentioned laboratory information system and were transported into the other laboratory from a field office of general practisioners. The other aim of my bachelor´s thesis was to compare severity and of each method. HYPOTHESIS 1: The frequency of H. influenzae in the year 2013 depends on a season. HYPOTHESIS 2: The MALDI TOF MS method is reliable and fast for identification of the genus Haemophilus. The Test with growth factories is not so reliable and fast. From the results it is obvious that the frequency of H. influenzae depends on the season. Heamophilus are very demanding and sensitive bacteria for cultivation and they need optimal conditions for their accretion. In this season the viral diseases increase and they can affect the process of the treatment. During the comparison of these two methods I managed to prove that the second hypothesis MALDI TOF is useful in a diagnosis. This method is not demanding. And the result can be obtained in a few minutes. At the end of my thesis it can be said that the MALDI TOF MS method is fast, reliable and an efficient diagnosis tool for identification of microorganisms. MALDI TOF MS has become an effective method for taxonomic classifications and microbiological studies. The MALDI TOF MS method is fast and there are minimal costs for consumables in samples.

Dance and it´s influence on mental and physical health of adolescents.
BLAŽKOVÁ, Klára
Bachelor thesis examines the impact of dance on adolescents. The goal of this work was a realization of dancing intervention program and verifying its psychological and physical effect on the selected group. This research involved 25 senior students from High School and Business College Marianske Lazne. Before the start of the program, students were tested using the Iowa-Brace tests, test of balance on beam, Jacík´s motoric tests, Poms questionnaire and the test of coloring characters. In addition, their blood pressure was measured and an author-made questionnaire was given them for filling in. The intervention program was carried out for four months and culminated with a public performance as a dance show in their prom. After completion of the intervention program students underwent the same tests as before, with the exception of the questionnaire. The evaluation of the results showed that there was an improvement in all the tests and thus the research assumptions were confirmed.
