Endocrine disruptors in consumer goods
Pařízková, Alžběta ; Šuta, Miroslav (advisor) ; Cajthaml, Tomáš (referee)
The Thesis focuses on the group of specific organic compounds with a potential risk of their endocrine disruptive effect, and appearing as UV filters in various cosmetic products. An extended list of such products was created on the basis of search in drugstores, pharmacies and perfume shops. The products were further grouped as cosmetics for adults, children, and those declared as bio products. The source data collection counted 156 individual products, with origin in 40 drugstores, 20 pharmacies, and 10 perfume shops. The data collection sites were distributed in big cities, their suburb parts, shopping parks, and small towns on many places in the Czech Republic. The products were mostly sun protection creams, oils and emulsions, body creams and emulsions, lips balsams, and hair cosmetics. In these items an occurrence of 7 organic compounds (suspected endocrine disruptors) from the SIN List, used as parts of UV filters, was followed. The compounds of interest were: ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate; benzophenone-1, benzophenone-2, benzophenone-3; 4,4-dihydroxyphenone; 4-methylbenzylidene camphor; 3-benzylidene camphor. Alternative names, product brand names, chemical structures, CAS numbers etc. were also collected from various sources. Of this group only ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate and benzophenone-3...

Demarcation between the categories of products with physiological function on human body in EU law
Vavrečka, Jan ; Švarc, Zbyněk (advisor) ; Boháček, Martin (referee) ; Jakl, Ladislav (referee)
The thesis is focused on theoretical principles of demarcation of products with health effects in the EU law and on the reflection of these issues in the application and administrative practice in commercial law. The thesis developed yet been brought judicial interpretation with the scientific interpretation of certain key and decisive problems that separate from each other law-regimes of regulation: medicinal product for human use, foods, cosmetics products, medical devices and biocides. Correct law-regime for a particular product is determinating of the general legal basis in the EU internal market. It is therefore a important problem not only in EU law, but also in EU economic. Thesis results are highly critical of current practice in the local markets of EU member states, especially Czech Republic, and in many instances documented sub-optimal application of this law in general practice.
