The application of chlorine for public swimming pool water disinfection
Wagnerová, Andrea ; Svoboda, František (referee) ; Biela, Renata (advisor)
The bachelor thesis focuses on issues surrounding disinfectants of swimming pool water. The dissertation examines various chlorine based disinfectants as well as chlorine free disinfectants. Part of the thesis compares advantages and disadvantages of different possibilities of securing hygienic swimming pool water. Several complexes of public swimming pools in Brno and its neighbourhood were visited in order to examine the methods of disinfection, which are currently used at those swimming pools. Disinfectants based on chlorine are currently used the most for swimming pool water.

The Study of Polyolefins Photochloration
Kučera, Vladimír ; Tocháček, Jiří (referee) ; Petrůj, Jaroslav (advisor)
This Master´s thesis deals with heterogeneous photochlorination of polyolefins and especially with the photochlorination of polypropylene itself. In the theoretical part the available information about properties, manufactory and application of chlorinated polyolefins, specifically polyethylene and polypropylene, is provided. The basic principles of the photochemistry are described, which are further applied to the issue of photochemistry chain reactions and photochemical halogenations, mainly photochlorinations. The practical part includes design and realization of few types of equipment for the heterogeneous photochlorination of polypropylene done at low temperatures (to 50° C) by gaseous chlorine in bulk or chlorine suspended in suspension of PP in CCl4. Series of chlorination was accomplished, which was varied in the type of PP, in the way of dosage Cl2 and in the period of high pressure mercury lamp irradiation (1–90 minutes). The chlorine content in prepared samples was determined by the gravimetry with ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, as well as by the Shöniger combustion method. Their accuracies were than compared. The chlorine content dependence on the period of chlorination and on the porosity of initial PP was established.

Water supply without a residual disinfectant
Rajnochová, Markéta ; Pikal, Martin (referee) ; Ručka, Jan (advisor)
The diploma thesis focuses on the water distribution system functioning without chlorine-based disinfectant. This thesis contains research of documented cases of examples of drinking water distribution systems both abroad and in the Czech Republic, which do not use disinfectants. Moreover, the thesis pay attention to chlorine and its effects on bacteria. The thesis deals with the first assessment of water supply structure, which determines whether the water supply structure is suitable for operating without disinfectant. The thesis describes the process of transition to the disinfectant-free operation and determines the undesired events, which may occur with the ending of the use of disinfectant. As a part of the research, the thesis examines the water supply system in village Kateřinice, to determine if it is suitable for operation without disinfectant.

The effect of swimming training on children with skin problems
Kleinerová, Kateřina
The diploma thesis focuses on children of early school age who have undergone mandatory swimming training in pools with various water disinfection methods, specifically chlorine, salt, and UV+. The aim of the thesis is to analyse how this swimming instruction affects children with different skin conditions, such as dry skin, atopic eczema, psoriasis, and plantar warts. The research was conducted at three different primary schools, each of which visited a different swimming pool with a distinct water treatment method during the swimming lessons. A total of 348 students participated in the research, including 172 girls and 176 boys from the 3rd and 4th grades, aged 8 to 11. The research utilized the method of quantitative personal interviewing and the method of qualitative observation. The theoretical part delves into swimming, swimming instruction, water treatment methods in swimming pools, and selected skin diseases. The practical part outlines the research findings. The obtained results demonstrated that skin dryness was observed in 35.4% of students from all three schools participating in swimming lessons. Skin dryness manifested in 26.5% of students in the chlorinated pool, in 46.2% of students in the salt-treated pool, and in 34.6% of students in the UV+ pool. The exacerbation of atopic eczema...

The effect of salt on health, its content in food and the intake of the population of the Czech Republic
Miškovská, Žaneta ; Dostálová, Jana (advisor) ; Košťálová, Alexandra (referee)
This work deals with the effect of salt on human health. Excessive (as well as insufficient) salt consumption can harm health, and at the same time salt consumption in the Czech Republic is one of the highest in the EU. In my work I deal with basic types of salt such as table salt, vacuum and sea salt and their extraction. I also deal with the two elements that make up salt - sodium and chlorine. I also describe disorders of sodium and chlorine metabolism, the effect of salt on health (positive and negative) and the function of salt in food. I also briefly address the salt content of bakery, meat and dairy products and the importance of salt in the technology of these foods. In the practical part of the work, I deal with the salt content in individual selected foods and the possibilities of how to reduce this salt content. Part of the practical part of the work is a questionnaire survey in spas and fitness centers regarding their knowledge of the salt content in individual foods. In the second part of the practical work, I will evaluate the menus from clients from fitness centers according to the nutritional program. The aim of this work is to map the effect of salt on human health, its content in basic foods and its intake by the population of the Czech Republic.

Cytototoxic effects of antiseptics in devices for chronic wound healing
Kejzlarová, Leona ; Pavlík, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Hrdý, Jiří (referee)
Chronic wounds are often colonized by pathogens bacteria. The occurrence of infection on the surface results in an injured and delayed healing process. Therefore, the use of antimicrobial agents that eliminate microbiological stress and prevent infection is required for the treatment of chronic wounds. Microbial agents include antibiotics, but pathogens are able to develop resistance to them. Antiseptic agents are therefore used, which act non-selectively. Antiseptics may be cytotoxic to human tissue cells and cause a delay in wound healing. A certain balance needs to be struck between antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity. The most commonly used active substances with microbicidal properties in antiseptic preparations are: silver, iodine, chlorine, octenidine, polyhexanide, and chlorhexidine. This work describes the mechanisms of action of these agents and compares the clinical and laboratory knowledge of their effectiveness in chronic wound healing and cytotoxicity against cells involved in this process. Keywords: Chronic wounds, antiseptic, cytotoxicity, octenidine, chlorhexidine, polyhexamethylen, PHMB, iodine, silver, chlor
