Experimental study on the adsorption of bacterial cells on solid surfaces
Kahanovská, Kristína ; Obruča, Stanislav (referee) ; Sedláček, Petr (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on an optimalization of simple laboratory model systems which serve as an innovative tool for an experimental study on the adsorption of bacterial cells on solid surfaces. In the description of living biological systems, an adsorption is labelled as an adhesion. Designed model systems were validated with a physical-chemical analysis. Various techniques were used to determine bacteria properties, more specifically Burkholderia cepacia and Bacillus megaterium. The solid surfaces after sorption of bacterial cells of Bacillus megaterium were subjected to a structural and visual analysis. Applying the theoretical approach (e.g. using different physical-chemical models) to study the adhesion of microorganisms to a particular surface allows a prediction of the conditions for a successful adhesion. The results will give us a better understanding of a formation and development of a biofilm.

Polymer composites with controlled interphase
Zvonek, Milan ; Knob, Antonín (referee) ; Čech, Vladimír (advisor)
Cieľom diplomovej práce je príprava polymerných kompozitov vyztužených sklenenými vláknami s riadenou medzifázou za použitia metódy plazmochemickej depozície z plynnej fáze a monomeru tetravinylsilanu. Teoretická časť je zameraná na literárnu rešerš o plazme, plazmovej polymerácií, tenkých vrstvách a kompozitoch. Experimentálna časť popisuje použité materiály a aparaturu použitú na povrchovú modifikáciu sklenených vlákien a prípravu vláknom vyztužených kompozitov. Povrchová úprava sklenených vlákien prebiehala za rôznych depozičných podmienok. Chemické a mechanické analýzy vytvorenej medzivrstvy prebiehali za použitia FTIR spektrometrie a vrypového testu. Vliv povrchovej úpravy bol zistený pomocou získanej interlaminárnej šmykovej sily použítím testu krátkych trámečkov.

Adhesive properties of matrix tablets
Kišková, Martina ; Šnejdrová, Eva (advisor) ; Mužíková, Jitka (referee)
Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradci Králové Department of Pharmaceutical Technology Name: Martina Kišková Title of diploma thesis: Adhesive properties of matrix tablets Supervisor: PharmDr. Eva Šnejdrová, Ph.D. The diploma thesis deals with the evaluation of rheological and adhesive properties of the mucin, aqueous dispersions of polymeric carriers and matrix tablets based on chitosan and sodium alginate or iota-carrageenan loaded with the salicylic acid using absolute rotational rheometer. The theoretical part deals with the characterization and classification of matrix tablets, polymeric carriers (sodium alginate, chitosan and carrageenan) and with the principles of evaluation of rotational, adhesive and oscillational tests performed in the experimental part. The mucin from porcine gastric used as a model substrate for adhesion tests behaves as a viscoelastic solid and its adhesive strength decreases with increasing hydration. Significantly higher adhesive strength was found for chitosan at pH 1.2 and sodium alginate at pH 6.8 compared to the adhesive strength of iota-carrageenan. In terms of viscoelastic properties, chitosan and sodium alginate are viscoelastic fluids, but iota-carrageenan is a viscoelastic solid. Iota-carrageenan forms the stiffest gel after hydration at pH 6.8...

Adhesion, growth and potential immune activation of cells on metallic materials for bone implants.
Straňavová, Lucia ; Bačáková, Lucie (advisor) ; Filová, Elena (referee)
The contemporary orthopaedics and traumatology of the musculoskeletal system and stomatology have been witnessing a substantial increase in the number of surgeries using metallic implants. The issue of reconstruction of bone defects covers a large area of study, where the surface properties of the implants are extremely important. Bone defects often occur as a result of open fractures, radical cancer treatment or limb lengthening, which is very common in paediatric orthopaedics. In the treatment of these conditions, the surface of the applied materials should provide a favorable environment for bone cells and support bone formation. In endoprosthetics it is highly desirable to achieve the strongest possible fixation between the implant surface and the bone. During the surgery, primary stability of the implant fixation is ensured by the proper positioning of the implant, based on the appropriate shape of the implant and the quality of bone cut. The initial stability is only temporary, being estimated to last approximately three months. After this period, the secondary stability starts, determined by the bone ingrowth into the implant surface structure. Osteogenic differentiation and extracellular matrix (ECM) mineralization can be enhanced by the presence of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs),...
