The Influence of Air Humidity on the Optical Properties of Aerosol Particles.
Suchánková, Lenka
2021 - English
Atmospheric aerosol (AA) are ubiquitous particles in the atmosphere that influence Earth’s climatic system, environmental interactions,\nand human health. AA is emitted directly from primary sources or formed in the atmosphere via the oxidation of gas-phase precursors\nwith subsequent partitioning resulting in low-volatility products into the particle phase. Among AA, great interest is dedicated to organic\naerosol (OA) since it can represent from 20 to 90% of the total submicron mass.

Removal of Contaminants from Water.
Spáčilová, Markéta
2021 - English
This study deals with commonly used plastics; polystyrene (PS), polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), polyamide (PA), polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), etc. Microplastic samples were prepared by abrasion from commonly available plastics to simulate real microplastic occurrence in the environment. Prepared samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy (IR) to obtain their fingerprints. These characteristics can be applied as standards for characterization of real microplastics.

Zvýšený výskyt cizorodých látek ve vodních zdrojích, ať už mikroplastů či dalších jiných organických kontaminantů je v současné době stále se zvyšující environmentální problém. Tato problematika úzce souvisí se zmapováním jejich výskytu ve vodním prostředí, a dále také s možnými způsoby jejich odstranění. V rámci práce byla nejprve provedena charakterizace připravených mikroplastových částic pěti nejčastěji používaných plastů (polyethylen, polyamid, polytetrafluorethylen, polyethylenglykoltereftalát a polystyren) pomocí skenovací elektronové mikroskopie (SEM), Ramanovy spektroskopie a infračervené spektroskopie (IČ). Tyto mikroplastové částice byly použity pro přípravu simulovaných vod kontaminovaných mikroplasty. Připravené simulované vzorky vod kontaminovaných mikroplasty byly využity pro vývoj metodiky určení počtu obsažených částic mikroplastů. Dále byly testovány možnosti odstranění mikroplastů ze vzorků pomocí sorbentů na bázi přírodních bentonitů a zeolitů. Bylo potvrzeno, že účinnost sorbentů závisí na jejich složení a texturních vlastnostech a může být zvýšena pomocí jejich modifikace. The occurrence of contaminants in water sources, microplastics or other organic pollutants, has been an increasing environmental problem. This issue is related to mapping of their occurrence in an aquatic environment and with finding of possible ways regarding their elimination. The prepared microplastic particles of five most-frequently used plastics (polyethylene, polyamide, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylene glycol terephthalate and polystyrene) were characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the Raman spectroscopy and the infrared spectroscopy (IR). The obtained microplastic particles were used for preparation of simulated water contaminated with microplastics. The prepared simulated samples of water contaminated with microplastics were used for the development of a methodology for determining the number of contained microplast particles. Furthermore, the possibilities of a microplastic removal from simulated samples by sorbents based on natural bentonites and zeolites were tested. It was confirmed that the effectiveness of sorbents depends on their composition and textural properties and could be increased by their modification.

CFD Simulation of a Sub-millimetre Rising Bubble in a Stagnant Liquid.
Crha, Jakub; Basařová, P.; Kašpar, O.
2020 - English
Hydrodynamics of the multiphase apparatus is strongly affected by fluids used in the process. One of the main quantities, which determine the hydrodynamic behaviour is the rising velocity of gaseous bubbles. This velocity can be determined easily in small scale apparatuses, but it can be much more challenging in industrial-scale devices. For that reason, mathematical modeling is used. COMSOL Multiphysics, finite element CFD solver, was used to describe the behaviour of the single bubble rising in aqueous solutions of ethanol and n-propanol. Aqueous solutions of low-carbon alcohols are extensively used in many multiphase chemical processes such as distillation, flotation and in multiphase reactors. Bubble velocities and shapes obtained from the simulation were compared to experimental and theoretical values. Two initial diameters of bubbles were used – 0.6 and 0.8 mm. Terminal velocities and shapes deformations obtained from COMSOL of 0.6 mm bubble were in an agreement with theoretical and experimental values.

NMR Metabolomics Study of the Association between Pancreatic Cancer and Diabetes Mellrtus.
Michálková, Lenka; Horník, Štěpán; Sýkora, Jan; Habartová, L.; Setnička, V.
2019 - English
In our study, 1H NMR metabolomics was employed to plasma samples of pancreatic cancer patients, individuals with long-term diabetes mellitus type 2 (lasting more than 5 years) and healthy controls. The NMR analyses were followed by establishing a statistical model based on principal component analysis and discriminant analysis. The aim was to discover differences between these groups and to define a potential biomarker panel. The statistical evaluation of metabolomics-based profiles provided high values of sensitivity and specificity. Subsequently, plasma samples of the risk group, specifically patients with recently diagnosed diabetes mellitus with a duration of <3 years (possible T3cDM), were analysed and the possibility of PC development was predicted. The achieved results showed strong potential of 1H NMR metabolomics to establish a biomarker panel that would facilitate the early diagnosis of PC and the possibility identify diabetic individuals, who are at risk of developing PC.

As the dialytic tubing is impermeable for big molecules of receptor, the anions crossing the barrier of dialytic tubing to form complex with the receptor stay entrapped inside and can be removed from the solution. NMR methods were used to study the complexation properties of given receptors as well as to determine the concentration changes during dialytic experiments.
