Passive and low energy cooling techniques for the Czech Republic

This paper deals with the applicability of passive and low energy cooling technologies in the Czech Republic. The work includes climate analysis as well as buildings and systems analysis in order to estimate the potential of passive and low energy cooling technologies. The latter is based on case studies, which include both building simulation and monitoring. The role of computer simulation in ...

Hantaviruses in the Czech Republic

Chlamydiae, and plant plastids, and uses a specific DNA probe. We considerably decreased the risk of horizontal and vertical contamination of the PCR reaction by using uracil and uracil-N-glycosylase and by keeping reaction cups closed since the first amplification cycle. More importantly, our study showed that Parachlamydia DNA is rarely found in bronchoalveolar lavage samples (0.083%). This s...

Genomics in the Czech Republic

The Functional Genomics and Disease 2003 conference was held at the Hilton Hotel in Prague, the beautiful capital of the Czech Republic, on 14–17 May 2003. This conference provided an ideal forum for European specialists to converge in the geographical centre of Europe to discuss the progress made in, and future prospects for, the important field of genomics in disease, and presented an opportu...

Evidence from the Czech Republic

Y-chromosomal variation in the Czech Republic.

To analyze the contribution of the Czech population to the Y-chromosome diversity landscape of Europe and to reconstruct past demographic events, we typed 257 males from five locations for 21 UEPs. Moreover, 141 carriers of the three most common haplogroups were typed for 10 microsatellites and coalescent analyses applied. Sixteen Hg's characterized by derived alleles were identified, the most ...
