The Study of Aggregation of Humic Acids in Different Xenobiotic Environments
Hronová, Aneta ; Smilek, Jiří (referee) ; Kalina, Michal (advisor)
Theme of the presented bachelor thesis is the study of the aggregation behavior of the humic acids (HA) in the environment of extraneous substances. As extraneous substances, three cationic surfactants were selected (CTAB, TTAB and Septonex). In the experimental part of the thesis, the humic acids were characterized in detail using different methods (elemental analysis, ash content determination, titration acidity determination). The experimental part of the thesis is dealing with the structure of created HA-surfactant systems. These systems were characterized using the results of the elemental analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. The key part of the experimental part of the study is represented by the selection of proper methods and by determination of the critical aggregation concentration of the humic acids in the surfactant environment. For these purposes, two key methods were selected in the frame of the presented bachelor thesis: isothermal titration calorimetry and dynamic light scattering. The first method is sensitive owing to the energetic fluctuations, in the case of the dynamic light scattering we are able to detect well the changes in the particle size caused by mutual interactions of particular substances in the system.

The application of magnetic particles for DNA isolation from thermally processed food products
Hronová, Aneta ; Rittich, Bohuslav (referee) ; Kovařík, Aleš (advisor)
The thesis has been focused on testing of micromethod of DNA isolation using magnetic particles from thermic-managed food products in a quality suitable for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Currant jams were selected for the analysis. These were homogenized using plastic copist and stomacher in lysis buffer with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The effect of chloroform-octanol and isopropanol in the preparation of homogenates was tested. Homogenates were used for DNA isolation by magnetic particles. Rough fraction of DNA was purified by binding on the magnetic particles after centrifugation of the CTAB complexes with proteins, polyphenols and polysaccharides. Two types of magnetic particles were tested: microparticles of poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate-co-glycidylmethacrylate) - P(HEMA-co-GMA) and nanoparticles of iron oxides covered by poly(L-lysine) - PLL. Isolated DNA was analyzed spectrophotometrically - it was assessed its concentration and contamination by polyphenols and proteins. After that, amplification of the DNA was tested in PCR. Primers specific for plant ribosomal DNA were used. PCR products of expected length 700 bp were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis. It was shown that DNA isolated from currant jams using magnetic particles was in PCR-ready quality.

Physics in household
HRONOVÁ, Aneta
This bachelor's thesis was created in order to motivattes primary school students to self-education and understand the worl around them, starting with their own households. In this work, we will focus on some selected appliance that we find directly in our household. We will describe how these appliances work and how they developes in time. The work also includes photographs of these appliances. The last part of this bachelor's thesis is to verifying the knowledge of primary school students by questionnaire. The questionnaire is focused on selected appliances.

Transport Services and Their Impact on Employment
HRONOVÁ, Aneta
The main aim of the thesis is to verify the relation between employment and transport services in the region. The secondary aim is to describe the dependence between the quality of transport infrastructure and employment in the region. The assumption, which says that villages with worse transport service have a higher rate of unemployment. Is compared with outcomes of the survey realised through questionnaires. They are submitted to people who use public transport to get to work. This thesis use quantitative and qualitative methods. The quantitative method is in the form of regression analysis. It explores the dependence of the unemployment rate on the number of transport links. For qualitative methods already mentioned questionnaire are used. In conclusion, the thesis includes proposals to improve the current situation.
