Ability of specially trained dogs to detect human scent which was exposed to different weather conditions over a long period
Machová, Lucie ; Vyplelová, Petra (advisor) ; Jaroslav, Jaroslav (referee)
Survivability of human scent was observed by many scientists mainly in artificial conditions (Hudson et al., 2009; Santariová et al. 2012; Preti et al., 2006). Against this exists a few researches about survivability of human scent in nature conditions (King et al., 1964; Santariová et al., 2016).
On glass tubes were taken individual humant scent from 6 volunteers. Target scents were left outdoor during 2 different periods of year. Winter samples from 3 target people were outdoor from November to May and summer samples from other 3 people from May to December. Always after 3, 4, 5 a 6 months was taken scent from 1 glass tube of each target person. After last time period was taken scent from target people on cotton textile. Scent of other volunteer was taken at the same time for purpose scent deceptions.
Then was observed if dogs will be able to identify these samples corectly. Specially trained dogs on scent identification line-ups get sample from outdoor environment and they should choose the identical human scent from line of 6 samples (with 1 target and 5 deceptions).
The experiment showed, that dogs are able to identify winter samples in all time periods but are not able to identify summer samples in whatever time period. Time periods do not show any diference.
The biggest influence on quality change of individual human scent has intensity of sun radiation.

The prevalence of the overweight and obesity of students studying the first grades in the ZF JU and the possibilities of the reduction by means of an interventional active plan
MACHOVÁ, Lucie
In my thesis I have been dealing with the prevalence of the overweight and obesity of students studying the first grades in the ZF JU and also with the possibilities of the reduction of these by means of the interventional active plan lasting 12 weeks. The prevalence of students´ overweight and obesity was finally found out thanks to the values of BMI, BIA, the girth and also thanks to the values gained by measuring with a caliper. On the basis of the research, which 160 students were involved in, the students with a higher portion of fat were chosen (33 probands to experimental group and 30 students to control group). Since February 2007 till May 2007 the experimental group was undergoing the interventional active plan. The plan was focused on the reduction of an actual body weight and it was also focused on an affecting of the psychical and social parameters in a positive way. After finishing this interventional active plan the obtained results were analysed by means of the statistic methods. This created plan could become an inspiration and also a clue for the organisations which are engaged in the problems of the overweight or obesity in the sphere of the development of health
