Toxicity of fine and ultrafine particles from combustion processes
Berková, Helena ; Köbölová, Klaudie (referee) ; Adamec, Vladimír (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the toxicity of fine and ultrafine particles from biomass combustion. The theoretical part is focused on the current state of this issue from the origin, physicochemical properties, mechanism of toxicity of particles, to their impact on the environment and human health. The following is an overview of tests for determining the toxicity of fine and ultrafine particles. The experimental part is devoted to the actual sampling of biomass combustion, their characterization, cultivation of the tested organism and toxicity tests. The results of acute toxicity tests are expressed in terms of percentage mortality values and then the toxicity is evaluated.

Risk of Presence of Fine and Ultrafine Particles at Work Place of Specific Industry
Hájková, Alena ; Skřehot, Petr Adolf (referee) ; Martincová, Jana Victoria (advisor)
Submitted Master’s thesis deals with risks of fine and ultrafine particles occurrence in the industrial workplace area of automotive production. The introductory part has been analyzing the contemporary state of art defining basic terms, qualities, ways of measurement and health risks involved with fine and ultrafine particles. Furthermore, the research deals with the legal framework based around fine and ultrafine particles exposure in the workplace and the management of work-related risks in general. The experimental part of the thesis describes devices and conditions of measurement in the industrial company. The results of each measurement have been presented with the emphasis on inhalant exposure. Technical and organizational measures have been proposed on the basics of obtained results to reduce potential health risks of employees involved in exposure of fine and ultrafine particles. Final chapter of the thesis concludes obtained results, findings and in practice recommendations.
