This paper deals with waste waters produced by industrial producers during recent three years. Its main purpose is to evaluate the data monitored from discharges of three leather plants where eight traditional variables (COD, BOD, insoluble matters, pH, and the concentrations of ammonia, total nitrogen, chromium and sulphides) were regularly analyzed and quantified. Chemometrical and statistical methods were approved as very useful tools for characterization and classification of various kinds of water samples considering the environmental and metrological aspects. For this purpose, multivariate (multidimensional) techniques of data analysis and correlation analysis were especially very useful. The mentioned techniques are used in this work to (1) reveal the concealed interrelations of the monitored characteristics of waste waters, (2) compare the results of individual waste water producers and find the most important polluting source during a long time period, and (3) derive some generally valid conclusions regarding the observed results.

Corn fiber due to its chemical composition (up to 20% starch, 50 - 60% non-starch polysaccharides) and availability has potential to serve as a substrate for manufacture of various products, including fuel ethanol. This paper deals with assessment of fiber-to-ethanol conversion. The water/dry fiber ratio in suspensions was 10/1. Enzyme liquefaction and saccharification of residual starch in corn fiber was carried out in two steps with thermostable α-amylase (20 min, 120°C) and mixture of pullulanase and glucomalyse (24 hours, 60°C). Procedures resulted in release of 57.7±1.6 mg of glucose per gram of dry fiber basis. It responds to the dextrose equivalent expression to 96.7±2.2%. By fermentation of the starch hydrolysates by yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCY-11-3 (5% v/v inoculum, 28°C, 72 hours) 0.48 g of ethanol per gram of glucose in hydrolysates was obtained. The solids after starch hydrolysis were separated by filtration and processed by acid pretreatment (0.1 g of conc. HCl/g of biomass/5 ml of water, 120°C, 20 min) with subsequent enzyme hydrolysis (24 hours, 60°C) by the multienzyme preparations containing cellulases and hemicellulases. Overall yield of reducing sugars after these two steps was 740.7±3.9 mg/gram of dry corn fiber basis. Fermentation of lignocellulosic hydrolysates by yeasts Pichia stipitis CCY-39-50-1 and Candida shehatea CCY-29-68-4 (in both cases 5% v/v inoculum, 28°C, 72 hours) resulted in 0.38 and 0.12 g of ethanol per gram of reducing sugars. The results indicate that applied pretreatment methods and used microorganisms are able to produce ethanol from corn fiber.

In this contribution a possibility of electrochemical production of chlorine for water disinfection, by using photovoltaic panels from solar energy, is described. A simple way of chloride production by means of a photovoltaic panel, comparable with classical electrical power source was performed on an experimental device. By using photovoltaic panel with nominal output 50 W and solar irrigation 380 – 550 W/m2 chlorine production was 0.3 mg/min, which represents amount of chlorine sufficient for disinfections of approximately 4000 l water per day.

Production of flavonoids in madder callus culture (Rubia tinctorum L.) was dependent on culture conditions and culture media composition. The content of flavonoids increased in calli maintained on media supplemented with NAA (4 mg.l-1) or NAA:BAP (4 mg.l-1 a 1 mg.l-1) in 16 h photoperiod. Flavonoids represented 2.08 – 2.25 % of callus dry mass. The presence of Cd(NO3)2 (3.1 or 31.0 mg.l-1 concentrations) negatively influenced callus growth, but enhaced the percentage of dry mass in callus cells. During 42 days of culture an increase of cadmium accumulation and even of flavonoids has been observed. The most considerable influence of CdCl2 or Cd(NO3)2 on flavonoids content has been shown in short-term experiments after 48 h of callus culture. More distinct influence has been observed under the treatment with CdCl2 (0.005 mg.l-1) in comparison with Cd(NO3)2.

Results of 10 biochemical tests of 172 patient data (among them 84 men data and 88 women data, resp.) before and after administration of statins were thoroughly studied. All monitored patients are characterized by disorders of lipoprotein metabolism or other kind of dislipidaemia. The calculations were performed using four chemometrical methods facilitating quantification and visualization of the statin effect upon most important biochemical parameters, mainly lipid markers, and allowing classification of the patient blood samples taking into account whether the patient has been or has not been medicated by a statin drug.

For genotoxicity study simultaneous phytotoxicity and mutagenicity assay with Vicia sativa L. var. Klára was used. For phytotoxicity the following rank orders of growth inhibition can be arranged: for roots: Ni(II) > Cr(VI) > Cr(III); for shoots: Ni(II) > Cr(VI) ≥ Cr (III). For mutagenicity assay root tips of V. sativa were used and chromosome aberrations were determined at least in 500-anatelophases. All tested metals exerted in V. sativa a significant increase of chromosomal aberration rate in applied concentrations. Maximum of aberrations invoked Cr(VI) and the rank order of aberrations fall was: Cr(VI) > Ni(II) > Cr(III). Genotoxic effects of metals were determined by analysis of micronuclei frequency in the pollen tetrads of Tradescantia plants. None of tested metal significantly stimulated micronuclei frequency and genotoxic effect was decreased in order: Cr(VI) ≥ Ni(II) > Cr(III).

The effect of chelating agent – EDTA (ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid) was used for induced phytoextraction to increase intensity of lead transfer from roots to aboveground parts of garden pea. Pot experiments with contaminated soil substrata (50 mg Pb.kg-1 and 100 mg Pb.kg-1) were established for experimental purposes in growth chamber. The results showed that application of 5 and 10 mmol EDTA.kg-1 to experimental variants with 100 mg Pb.kg-1 doubled the increase of lead uptake by pea roots in comparison with variants without EDTA addition, which was statistically confirmed. Intensive lead transfer was observed from roots to aboveground parts of pea after application of 5 and 10 mmol EDTA.kg-1 in variant with 50 mg Pb.kg-1 (40-fold increase), as well as in variant with 100 mg Pb.kg-1 (17-fold increase). The results showed that induced phytoextraction can improve the mobility of lead from soil to plant roots. Application of 5 mmol EDTA.kg-1 resulted to 40-fold increase of lead transfer to green plant parts, despite the fact, that garden pea does not belong to conventional metal hyperaccumulating plant species. Following the results, pea could be used for decontamination of arable soil. The optimal EDTA concentration seems to be 5 mmol.kg-1. Therefore, application of 10 mmol EDTA.kg-1 decreased root mass about 55%, which resulted to decrease the intensity of lead uptake.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are organic xenobiotics contaminating environment for at least 50 years. They could be eventually eliminated by various organisms under different conditions. The degree of chlorine substitution per biphenyl molecule influences biodegradability which decreases with increasing chlorination. Our work is focused on the PCBs biodegradation under anaerobic conditions. The suitable high chlorinated biphenyls are converted via reductive dechlorination to the chlorinated biphenyls with lower extent of chlorine, which could be eventually fully mineralized by aerobic bacteria. Microbial consortium was isolated from sediment of Strážský Creek (located near by plant producing PCBs in the past). This consortium was able to dechlorinate polychlorinated biphenyls under anoxic conditions. The effectiveness of this process was tested under different cultivation condition – different energetic sources (Aroclor 1248 or Aroclor 1260 or Delor 103 or Delor 106), addition of potential electron donors (pyruvate, lactate or acetate with hydrogen) and further if there is necessary to add yeast extract into fresh low sulphur cultivation media. Our microbial consortia so far do not need supplementation by non-contaminated sediment to maintain dechlorination activity. Addition of yeast extract is non essential, but needs to be further proved in serial transfers. In all cases (except acetate without yeast extract) dechlorination proceeds at meta- and flanked paraposition.

Possible antimicrobial properties of essential oils isolated from Tanacetum vulgare L., and Salvia officinalis L., harvested from five different locations in Slovakia, were examined using the disc agar diffusion method and by the microdilution method. GC/MS analysis of the essential oil from Tanacetum vulgare L. resulted in the identification of 16 compounds constituting 82.1% of the total oil. Gram-positive bacteria, mainly Bacillus subtilis, were more susceptible to essential oils from both plants than were gramnegative species. Tested essential oils posses also anti-yeast activity. The shares of the constituents in the essential oils as well as their antimicrobial activity differed in dependence on the locality.

The aim of this work is focused on water quality classification of the textile waste water streams and evaluation of pollution. Data from the chemical characterization of the effluents were elaborated to identify a useful separation in potentially treatment for reuse. This was done with the aim of realizing a full scale characterization of effluents. In the two textile companies analyzed, machineries are used to carry out different production processes such as sizing and desizing, weaving, scouring, bleaching, mercerizing, carbonizing, fulling, dying and finishing. Different process effluents from the same machinery were found to be very diverse in pollution level. 25 and 49 samples of textile waste waters from two different textile companies were analysed and physical chemical measurements were performed. The following physicochemical and chemical water quality parameters were controlled: absorbance measured at three different wavelengths, pH, conductivity, turbidity, total suspended solids, volatile suspended solids, chemical oxygen demand, metals content (Ba, Ca, Cu, Mn, K, Sr, Fe, Al, Na) and total nitrogen content. For handling the results, basic statistical methods for the determination of mean and median values, standard deviations, minimal and maximal values of measured parameters and their mutual correlation coefficients, were performed. Different chemometric methods, namely, principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis (CA), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were used to find hidden information about textile waste water quality.
