The effects of land management on the physical quality of subsurface soil layer
Komárková, Markéta ; Doležal, Petr (referee) ; Kameníčková, Ivana (advisor)
The thesis deals with the influence of soil cultivation on physical quality of the subsurface soil layers (horizons). The experimental research has been conducted nearby Šakvice on two different areas which were both cultivated in an ordinary way, e.g. by tillage. One of the two areas was exposed to PRP SOL subsidiary substance. Undisturbed soil samples were drawn in three different soil depths: 0,1, 0,2 and 0,3 m. Samples were drawn on May 13, 2009 and September 9, 2009 during the vegetation period of the grown crop. The selected physical properties of the soil, e.g. the specific gravity of the soil, porosity, poruses division, actual presence of moisture and air, were assessed using standard analytical methods. The results of a one-year research did not give evidence of a strong effect of the PRP SOL subsidiary substance on the physical quality of the subsurface soil layers.

Effect of addition of microbial or vegetable oil on the efficiency of cosmetic products
Kovářová, Karolína ; Hoová, Julie (referee) ; Němcová, Andrea (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the influence of the fatty acid profile and the concentration of active substances on the abilities to hydrate and to absorb into the skin of cosmetic emulsions. Coconut and macadamia oil, which are common cosmetic ingredients, were used as vegetable active ingredients. The last active ingredient used was the microbial oil, which was prepared as part of this work. Four strains of oleaginous yeast Metschnikowia were tested for the overproduction of microbial lipids in various culture media. Based on the results of gas chromatography, the yeast strain Metschnikowia pulcherrima (149) was selected. The chosen culture medium contained apple cider as a carbon source and had a 10 % sodium chloride content, inducing osmotic stress. Cosmetic emulsions with different concentrations of active ingredients were prepared. These emulsions were tested by sensory analysis. After application, the skin was analyzed with a skin camera that measured desquamation and sebum. The degree of desquamation is directly related to skin hydration and the level of sebum reflects the ability of the emulsion to be absorbed into the skin. It was found that if the user is not used to applying hydrating cosmetic emulsions regularly, but only solves the immediate problem of dry skin, it is advantageous to use an emulsion with an active ingredient content of 5.0 % or more. However, commercially available hydrating creams typically contain effective vegetable oils in lower concentrations. Furthermore, it was found that microbial oil could be a very interesting cosmetic ingredient.

Design and production of a plastic komponent
ČÍŽEK, Václav
The theoretical part is focused on evaluation of chosen ?essential? plastics used in the car industry. The principles of construction and proportioning of plastic components, basic conception of injection moulding and measuration follow. Another section of the theoretical part presents a summary of possible CAD systems, which are used. The practical part is focused on a particular plastic moulding. It includes the main description of a component with its material choice in dependence on the component function. Another section contains evaluation of the component complexity from the viewpoint of moulding, and a possible substitution of constructions, which could be productively simpler, is shown. The whole thesis is completed for better lucidity by pictures, drawings, and mechanical drawings.
