Abstract:

Summary The paper deals with the non-normative impacts of the EU law in the national legal systems (Czech Republic in particular) and focuses on the approach of the Czech Constitutional Court (CCC) towards the so-called principle of indirect effect of EU law. The authors examine the case law of CCC and offer the conclusions about the place, constitutional relevance and (national) limits of the EU-consistent interpretation of national law. CCC up to date case law clearly indicates that a EU-consistent interpretation is the most ideal tool for meeting the Czech Republic’s membership obligations.

Abstract:

Countercurrent liquid-liquid chromatographic techniques (CCC), similar to solvent extraction, are based on the different distribution of compounds between two immiscible liquids and have been most widely used in natural product separations. Due to its high load capacity, low solvent consumption, the diversity of separation methods, and easy scale-up, CCC provides an attractive tool to obtain pure compounds in the analytical, preparative, and industrial-scale separations. This review focuses on the steady-state and non-steady-state CCC separations ranging from conventional CCC to more novel met

Abstract:

For most companies to be financially successful, it is critically important that operating cash flows be effectively managed. The Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) is a traditional tool that companies use to measure the average time required for operating cash flows to cycle from cash out for the payment of payables and back to cash flow in from the collection of receivables. Knowledge that the rate their operating cash flow is speeding up or slowing down, as indicated by a decreasing or increasing CCC, while useful information, is of limited value to the company. The CCC indicates nothing about the

ABSTRACT A combined cell culture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CCC-ELISA) was developed for measuring the neutralizing antipoliovirus antibodies in human sera. The binding of different concentrations of each of the three poliovirus types to BGM cells in the presence and absence of a constant dilution from each test and reference serum was measured in the CCC-ELISA. The titers of the viruses neutralized by each serum were measured with the titration curves and used for interpretation of neutralizing titers to the three poliovirus types. Analysis of human sera revealed that the sensitivity

Abstract:

Remote sensing is a suitable tool for estimating the spatial variability of crop canopy characteristics, such as canopy chlorophyll content (CCC) and green ground cover (GGC%), which are often used for crop productivity analysis and site-specific crop management. Empirical relationships exist between different vegetation indices (VI) and CCC and GGC% that allow spatial estimation of canopy characteristics from remote sensing imagery. However, the use of VIs is not suitable for an operational production of CCC and GGC% maps due to the limited transferability of derived empirical relationships t

Abstract:

A novel approach of rare earth elements (REE) determination in crude oil is suggested. Special application of countercurrent chromatography (CCC) is used as a sample pretreatment tool. An oil sample is continuously pumped through the rotating coil column (RCC) as a mobile phase, while an aqueous phase (nitric acid solution) is retained as a stationary phase. Two phases are kept well mixed and agitated, but there is no emulsion at the interface under the chosen conditions. Special features of CCC give an opportunity to vary the volume of oil samples to be analyzed from 10 mL to 1 L or more. Tra

Abstract Aim SIRT is an established treatment option for liver malignancies. Metabolic information can provide additional knowledge about tumoral characteristics and treatment response. FDG-PET/CT was shown to be advantageous for pre-/post-SIRT evaluation. However, whole-body PET/CT is an elaborate procedure. The aim of the study was to optimize clinical efficacy assessment after SIRT with a low-dose, low-cost protocol for focused diagnostic work-up. Methods An abdomen-only minimal-activity FDG-PET/CT protocol (MA-PET) was established as an alternative for clinically indicated whole-body PET/C

The in vitro vero cell cytotoxicity of 93 antitubercular compounds belonging to the classes of chiral pentaamines, bis-cyclic guanidines, bis-cyclic thioureas, bis-cyclic piperazines, and quinolylhydrazones has been modeled in the present quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) study. Genetic function approximation followed by multiple linear regression (GFA-MLR) based on the mean absolute error (MAE) based criteria was used as the chemometric tool for the model development using 2D descriptors available from open source PaDEL-Descriptor.

Abstract:

Cancer is responsible for approximately 7.6 million deaths per year worldwide. A 2012 survey in the United Kingdom found dramatic improvement in survival rates for childhood cancer because of increased participation in clinical trials. Unfortunately, overall patient participation in cancer clinical studies is low. A key logistical barrier to patient and physician participation is the time required for identification of appropriate clinical trials for individual patients. We introduce the Trial Prospector tool that supports end-to-end management of cancer clinical trial recruitment workflow wit

Abstract:

Pressure ulcers, involving sub-dermal tissue damage and originating in deep tissue injury (DTI), have attracted much attention of physicians and researchers for three decades. Finite element (FE) model is a very efficient tool to investigate internal stresses and strains in human body that induce pressure ulcers. However, there was scarce report available to explore stresses distribution in human buttocks during manual wheelchair propulsion. A three-dimensional (3D) comprehensive FE model, incorporating ischial tuberosities (ITs), muscle, fat, and custom-contoured cushion (CCC), was developed

AbstractEach industrial automation project includes tasks that strongly depend on human factors, many of which may belong to the critical path or chain of the project. Multitasking significantly affects human productivity. The reduction in productivity has a direct result of delaying the primary task, which may cause an overall delay to the project with cost and time overruns. A project should be seen with respect to a global environment, such as that of a company, where resources are shared among its portfolio of projects. Although multitasking might have negative results, it is something tha

Abstract. Cryogenic cave carbonate (CCC) represents a specific type of speleothems, whose precipitation is triggered by freezing of mineralized karst water. Coarse-crystalline CCC, which formed during slow freezing of water in cave pools, is known in 20 Central European caves located in Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland. All these caves are situated in an area, which was glacier-free during the Weichselian. Whereas the formation of usual types of speleothems in caves of this region usually ceased during glacials, CCC precipitation was restricted to glacial periods. Since CCC rep

During thermoplastic injection moulding process, the gradual increase of the coolant temperature along the conformal cooling channel (CCC) inside the rapid tool reduces the rate of heat transfer from the polymeric melt to the cooling channel surface at the outlet portion. Injection moulded defects such as irregular warpage of the part between the coolant inlet and outlet cannot be avoided. Rapid tooling (RT) technology offers a speedy and automatic method for rapid tool design and fabrication integrated with complex internal structure such as CCC.
