    The main objective of this study is to develop highly active catalyst and its preparation method that would meet the requirements of steel carriers for short- channel structured converters for NO x abatement from stationary biogas engines. The in situ synthesis was applied to deposit a series of Cu-exchanged MFI zeolite (ZSM-5) on kanthal sheets. The samples differ in preparation con- ditions: organic template assisted and template-free syn- thesis, Si/Al ratio and catalyst carrier pretreatment (calcined vs. non-calcined). Dip-coating method was used as a reference to compare loading efficiency. In order to evaluate preparation quality and purity of resulting struc- ture the samples were examined by XRD and SEM/EDS at various stages of preparation. For the assessment of mechanical endurance of the deposited catalyst layers the ultrasonication method was used. The results demonstrated high depositing efficiency of the in situ synthesis as well as high activity and selectivity of the Cu-exchanged MFI samples prepared without costly organic template

    In order to gain control over the assembly and functioning of photosynthetic antenna, we have developed methods to manipulate pigment composition of bacterial LH1 complexes via their reconstitution with modified bacteriochlorophylls or carotenoids, major photoactive cofactors of these antennae. In the present work we show how the reconstitution and pigment exchange approach is applied to control structural and functional parameters of LH1 and its subunits. The size of the subunits and the energy of the first excited singlet state can be controlled via the use of detergent while the thermodynamics of LH1 formation can be modified using carotenoids and/or a co-solvent. Carotenoids affect the efficiency of the intracomplex energy transfer, while the replacement of native bacteriochlorophyll a with its Ni-substituted analog allows one to control the excited state properties of LH1. These results show that LH1 is a very promising model system applicable for the design of bio-inspired device performing solar energy conversion

    Admission Cholelithiasis is one of the most common conditions in the abdominal cavity. The highest incidence is observed in highly developed or developing countries. Bile duct diseases often require surgical treatment, which is a great physical and mental burden for the patient. The perspective of the surgical procedure and the accompanying circumstances is a sense of insecurity and fear for the patient and his family. The fact of the prevalence of cholelithiasis and the effects of the disease may have an impact on the quality of life of people after gallbladder surgery. Objective of the work The aim of the study was to assess the quality of life of patients after resection of the gall bladder using laparascopy and traditional methods. Research methods As a research method, the diagnostic survey method was used, a standardized WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire was used, in which the analysis of the collected material referred to the somatic, psychological, social and environmental sphere. Results The obtained research results allowed to state that socio-demographic variables differentiated the patients' opinions on the subjective assessment of the quality of life and health. The place of residence does not have a significant impact on the quality of life. Key words: quality of life, gall bladder resectio

    Admission Primary health care is the first level of a professional medical service, to which patients with their ailments and health problems apply. Access to basic health care services should be free from any physical, organizational and financial barriers due to the willingness to use the services of various patients. Objective of the work The aim of the work was to get to know the expectations of women regarding the medical care provided in the gynaecological clinic. In order to achieve the research objective, the issues concerning, among other things, the level of satisfaction of women with the functioning and offering of medical services in the gynecological clinic as well as the expectations of women during visits to the gynecological clinic were chosen. Material and methods The research was based on the method of a diagnostic survey using a standardized questionnaire, which was addressed to women using gynecological outpatient services. Results The research shows that the most frequent respondents visited the gynecologist once every three years, (49.33%, n = 74). Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between the professional activity of the surveyed women and the frequency of visits to the gynecologist (p = 0.004). The study showed that most often during the visit to the gynecological clinic, the respondents expected: gynecological examination (93.33%), cytological examination (83.33%) and breast examination (69.33%). Conclusions Expectations of women during a visit to the gynecological clinic concern primarily the obtaining of information on research and treatment. Women using the gynecological clinic are satisfied with the offered medical services and the way the clinic operates. Women aged 30-41 with higher education are significantly more satisfied with the gynecological clinic than women under 30 and over 40 years of age and with basic or vocational and married education

    HBV and HCV infections are not given enough attention even though they affect 500-600 million people around the world. Every year in Poland about 1500 people are infected with Hepatitis B and according to research carried out in 2009, about 2% of Poles are infected with Hepatitis C. Healthcare workers are often exposed in contact with blood and other potentially infectious matter, especially if health and safety regulations are not adheared to. The aim of the research was to ascertain nursing students' knowledge level on after-exposition procedures against HBV, HBC and other hazardous material. Research was carried out among third year students at University of Bielsko-Biala and Medical University of Silesia. Methods used included: poll and survey questionnaire (prepared by the authors) and knowledge test. The majority of the surveyed students know the methods of HBV and HCV transmission and can state the after-exposition procedures. A small proportion of them performs invasive procedures without individual protection means. Among surveyed students there were people who were exposed to probable transmission and the implemented proceedings did not comply with after-exposition procedures. The analysis of the obtained data led to the conclusion that the knowledge level of nursing students on prophylaxis and afterexposure procedures is insufficient and requires supplementation. Special attention should be paid to education in the field of health and safety which will contribute to the increase of awareness thus causing a reduction of students' exposition and in the future the exposition of healthcare workers

    AdmissionBreast cancer is a very insidious disease. For a long time it may not give any symptoms. That's why it is so important to be prophylactic, to have regular breast exams. Among breast cancer women is one of the most common oncological diseases in Poland and is a serious health, social and economic problem.Purpose of researchThe aim of the work is to assess the level of women on the prevention of breast cancer. It also defines what prevention is and how important it is.Materials and methods50 women between 20 and 50 years of age were included in the study. The research was conducted in October 2016. Respondents were randomly selected. The method used in the study is a diagnostic survey. A research questionnaire was used as a research tool and a research tool to assist in obtaining research information.ConclusionsWomen know the main factors that increase the risk of breast cancer: age, genetic factors, contraception, physical inactivity and childlessness. The survey respondents admitted that they use prophylactic tests because they believe they can prevent the disease by 48%, the person is close or has had breast cancer 26%. Almost half of the respondents said that 48% of the respondents declared that the prevention of breast cancer was a lack of knowledge, because 26% of them lacked the knowledge, 26% had good health and 18 lacked the knowledge. %.DiscussionDiagnosing the disease will reduce the mortality, so prevention activities that play a vital role in breast cancer prevention play a very important role. Dziukowa and Wesołkowska emphasize that early cancer (less than 10 mm) of the tumors detected does not cause metastasis to the lymph nodes, providing many years of survival and even cure in about 90%.
