Comparing the physical prerequisites of competitive swimmers, relative to the preferences of swimming disciplines.
Hanus, Tomáš ; Chvostek, Lukáš (advisor) ; Suchý, Jiří (referee)
Title: Comparing the physical prerequisites of competitive swimmers relative to the preferences of swimming disciplines. Objective: The objective of this bachelor thesis is to create a pilot study in which selected physical and anthropometric parameters of junior swimmers (16 to 18 years old) will be measured and compared. We compare short and middle distance swimmers against long distance swimmers. Methods: The research of this pilot study was carried out under the supervision of the supervisor and with the help of special devices lent by the Department of Physical Education. Summary tables and graphs were used for clear interpretation and comparison of results. Results: The measurement results show that endurance swimmers have an average of 2-3 % more body fat than sprinters. Swimmers focusing on short and medium distances, on the other hand, have an average of less than 1 % higher water-free ATH. This result was demonstrated in both girls and boys. The results of the spirometry measurements showed that the sprinters achieved a higher maximum expiratory velocity compared to the endurance runners. Vital lung capacity did not confirm any regularity of results. In this case, the boys were the better sprinters, while the girls, on the contrary, were the endurance athletes. The results were compared...

Determination of distribution of pharmacologically active compounds and their biological degradation during waste water treatment processes
Palyzová, Andrea ; Kyslík, Pavel ; Marešová, Helena
The project is focused on the development of technology for the degradation of persistent active pharmacologically substances (APIs) in wastewater. These substances are biologically active, due to their physicochemical properties often difficult to degrade, their consumption in human and veterinary medicine is difficult to control. By using it alone, even non-metabolized drugs enter the environment. End-user disposal of unused drugs is virtually uncontrollable and is becoming another important source of pollution. APIs are a common nodal point for the main sources of environmental contamination. Unfortunately, in the case of the API series, current WWTP systems are not even capable of capturing, let alone degradation, and are therefore distributed back to the environment via surface waters. The development of persistent APIs degradation technology at the WWTP level is the aim of the project. Its implementation will significantly reduce the level of surface water pollution and thus increase the sustainability of the use of water resources.

Body Surface Potential Mapping In Animal Experiments - Pilot Study
Novotna, Petra
The aim of this article is to present a pilot case study in the area of body surface potential mapping. This technology was used to record data from animal experiments with the goal to find out, what information could be derived from recorded ECGs in the protocol including induced myocardial ischemia. Data recorded before and after the ischemia were compared. Differences in ECG beat morphology were observed, also local changes in analysed intervals (QT, ST, QS, PT) were visible. It was hypothesiced that QT interval will be prolonged after myocardial ischemia. Nevertheless, according to out pilot study this hypothesis was declined.

The developement of partnerships in these days
URBANOVÁ, Simona
This diploma thesis is used as a pilot study, which requires sensitive and private information. Data necessary for research have been hardly accessible. The own qualitative research has been done in form of half-standardized interviews, secondary analysis and case studies. There have been delimitated areas and specified main guideline questions, which were, if necessary, closely specified in the course of interview. The maximum length of an interview was 45 min. Respondents answered questions in anonymous way. 14 case studies have been developed based on obtained data.
